Randomize the spawn location of these parts without all of them spawning in the same place?

Asked 161 views1 answers
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
x = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").SurfaceGui2.TextButton.Text
local RandomNumber = math.random(1,3)
for i = 1, (tonumber(x)) do
local F9 = Instance.new("Part")
F9.Parent = game.Workspace
if RandomNumber == 1 then
F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-482.5, 57, -2.5)
elseif RandomNumber == 2 then
F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-523.2, 57, -95.1)
elseif RandomNumber == 3 then
F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-579, 1.5, -90.8)
end
end
end)

Right now all 9 parts that I want to be spawned are being spawned all together in one of the three locations. Is there anyway I could spawn each of these parts in one of the three locations without having to spawn all 9 in the same location? All help is appreciated!

The problem you're having is that you don't refresh the RandomNumber value, it is before the loop. It should be inside of the loop like this:

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	x = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").SurfaceGui2.TextButton.Text
	--old position
	for i = 1, (tonumber(x)) do
		local RandomNumber = math.random(1,3) --new position
		local F9 = Instance.new("Part")
		F9.Parent = game.Workspace
		if RandomNumber == 1 then
			F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-482.5, 57, -2.5)
			elseif RandomNumber == 2 then
			F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-523.2, 57, -95.1)
			elseif RandomNumber == 3 then
			F9.CFrame = CFrame.new(-579, 1.5, -90.8)
		end
	end
end)
