How do I make a clickable part that places a part above you?
So I'm watching a LUA scripting tutorial from alvin blox and I had a question because I don't think this was mentioned. But I need to make it so if player clicks on PART then a new PART will spawn five studs above them. How is that possible?

Sorry. I don't really know how to reference to a part to do something when clicked. This is mainly my question. net_h 13 — 5y

The first thing you would need to do is make it so a script can detect a clickable part. You can do this by adding a ClickDetector into the part.
local part = script.Parent
-- Create a new click detector
local ClickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
ClickDetector.Parent = part
ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance = 10 -- Max distance a player can click the part
-- Set up the click function so our part can listen for clicks
ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(playerWhoClicked)
local newPart = Instance.new("Part")
newPart.Name = "SpawnPart"
newPart.Anchored= true
newPart.Parent = workspace
-- Get the character from the playerWhoClicked parameter
local characterWhoClicker = playerWhoClicked.Character
local head = characterWhoClicker.Head
-- Position the new part to the same position as the head plus 5 studs in the Y direction
newPart.CFrame = head.CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 5, 0)
end)
