Part
The Part object is a type of BasePart. It comes in five different primitive shapes: Ball, Block, Cylinder, Wedge, and CornerWedge.
Code Samples
local part = Instance.new("Part")
part.Name = "JurassicPart"
part.Anchored = true
part.Shape = Enum.PartType.Ball
part.Color = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
part.Parent = workspace -- Put the part into the WorkspaceSummary

Methods
Methods inherited from BasePartApply an angular impulse to the assembly.
Apply an impulse to the assembly at the assembly's center of mass.
Apply an impulse to the assembly at specified position.
Returns whether the parts can collide with each other.
Checks whether you can set a part's network ownership.
Returns a table of parts connected to the object by any kind of rigid joint.
Return all Joints or Constraints that is connected to this Part.
Returns the value of the Mass property.
Returns the current player who is the network owner of this part, or nil in case of the server.
Returns true if the game engine automatically decides the network owner for this part.
Returns the base part of an assembly of parts.
Returns a table of all BasePart.CanCollide true parts that intersect with this part.
Returns the linear velocity of the part's assembly at the given position relative to this part.
Returns true if the object is connected to a part that will hold it in place (eg an Anchored part), otherwise returns false.
Changes the size of an object just like using the Studio resize tool.
Sets the given player as network owner for this and all connected parts.
Lets the game engine dynamically decide who will handle the part's physics (one of the clients or the server).
- IntersectAsync(parts : Instances,collisionfidelity : Enum.CollisionFidelity,renderFidelity : Enum.RenderFidelity):Instance
Creates a new IntersectOperation from the overlapping geometry of the part and the other parts in the given array.
- SubtractAsync(parts : Instances,collisionfidelity : Enum.CollisionFidelity,renderFidelity : Enum.RenderFidelity):Instance
Creates a new UnionOperation from the part, minus the geometry occupied by the parts in the given array.
- UnionAsync(parts : Instances,collisionfidelity : Enum.CollisionFidelity,renderFidelity : Enum.RenderFidelity):Instance
Creates a new UnionOperation from the part, plus the geometry occupied by the parts in the given array.
Gets the pivot of a PVInstance.
Transforms the PVInstance along with all of its descendant PVInstances such that the pivot is now located at the specified CFrame.
Events
Events inherited from BasePartFires when a part stops touching another part as a result of physical movement.
Fires when a part touches another part as a result of physical movement.
Properties
Shape
The Shape property sets the overall shape of the object to one of a predetermined list of built-in shapes.
The Enum.PartType enum controls the shape value, and has five possible shapes:
| Shape/Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Ball | A spherical shape. |
| Block | A block shape. |
| Cylinder | A cylinder shape. |
| Wedge | A wedge shape with a slope on one side. |
| CornerWedge | A wedge shape with slopes on two sides. |
MeshPart and solid modeling can be used to obtain completely custom part shapes.
Collisions between balls, blocks, and wedges, and corner wedges are exact, whereas collisions between terrain, cylinders, TriangleMeshes, and other geometry types are approximations. This means that the ball shape can be useful to create stable colliders for car wheels.
