How would I check if the mouse CFrame is inside a region3 CFrame?
Let's say you can only build inside a certain restricted area, how would I check if the mouse is inside that area so that you can place in there? I tried this:
spawn(function()
mouse.Move:Connect(function()
if mouse.Hit.p < region.CFrame.p and region.Hit.p < mouse.CFrame.p then
print("yep")
end
end)
end)
But errored that I can't compare 2 userdata values.

these can never be smaller than each other, one of them has to be bigger and the other one smaller Gameplayer365247v2 1055 — 4y

Since you can't compare userdata with each other, you'll have to compare each individual axis with each other instead.
like such:
-- This function will take two vector as arguments and
-- compare break it down to axis and then compare
-- each axis value with each other.
function compareVectors(v1,v2)
local x1,y1,z1 = v1.x, v1.y, v1.z
local x2,y2,z2 = v2.x, v2.y, v2.z
return x1 < x2 and y1 < y2 and z1 < z2
end
spawn(function()
mouse.Move:Connect(function()
local check1 = compareVectors(mouse.Hit.p,region.CFrame.p)
local check2 = compareVectors(region.Hit.p,mouse.CFrame.p)
if check1 and check2 then
print("yep")
end
end)
end)
