Please include the code which you are trying to use, so the community will be better-equipped to help you with your problem. 
so can u like explain to me the script in the link?(credit the link)

--(Assuming the script is within the bullet)

local bullet = script.Parent

bullet.Touched:connect(function(hit) if hit:IsA("Part") then

local sides = {} local sizes = Vector3.new(hit.Size.X,hit.Size.Y,hit.Size.Z) local pos = hit.Position sides[1] = pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,0,-hit.Size.Z/2))--front sides[2]= pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,0,hit.Size.Z/2))--back sides[3] = pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(hit.Size.X/2,0,0))--right sides[4] = pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(-hit.Size.X/2,0,0))--left sides[5] = pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,hit.Size.Y/2,0))--top sides[6] = pos + hit.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,-hit.Size.Y/2,0))--bottom

local ClosestSide = 1 for i,v in ipairs(sides) do if (bullet.Position - v).Magnitude < (bullet.Position - sides[ClosestSide]).Magnitude then ClosestSide = i end end

if ClosestSide == 1 then print("front") elseif ClosestSide == 2 then print("back") elseif ClosestSide == 3 then print("right") elseif ClosestSide == 4 then print("left") elseif ClosestSide == 5 then print("top") elseif ClosestSide == 6 then print("bottom") end end end)


i need to know how to explain this script. pls help

What you want is basically just everything after line 18, the script basically just determines the closest side and then determines what surface of the part is the closest Synth_o 136 — 6y
