void

IKMoveTo ( Instance part , CFrame target , float translateStiffness , float rotateStiffness , IKCollisionsMode collisionsMode )

Moves the specified part to the specified location via inverse kinematics rather than moving it there directly, to ensure any joints, constraints, or collisions that part is participating in remain physically satisfied
bool

IsRegion3Empty ( Region3 region , Instance ignoreDescendentsInstance )

Returns a bool indicating whether there are no BaseParts within the given DataType/Region3.
bool

IsRegion3EmptyWithIgnoreList ( Region3 region , Objects ignoreDescendentsTable )

Returns a bool indicating whether there are no BaseParts within in the given DataType/Region3, ignoring any BaseParts that are descendants of the objects within the given ignore list.
RaycastResult

Raycast ( Vector3 origin , Vector3 direction , RaycastParams raycastParams )

Casts a ray using an origin, direction, and optional datatype/RaycastParams, then returns a datatype/RaycastResult if an eligible object or terrain intersects the ray.

void

BreakJoints ( )

Breaks connections between BaseParts, including surface connections with any adjacent parts, WeldConstraints and all Welds and other JointInstances.
Tuple

GetBoundingBox ( )

Returns a description of a volume that contains all parts of a Model
Vector3

GetExtentsSize ( )

Returns the size of the smallest bounding box that contains all of the BaseParts in the Model, aligned with the Model/PrimaryPart if it is set.
CFrame

GetModelCFrame ( )

[Deprecated]

This value historically returned the CFrame of a central position in the model. It has been deprecated as it did not provide reliable results.
Vector3

GetModelSize ( )

[Deprecated]

Returns the Vector3 size of the Model.
CFrame

GetPrimaryPartCFrame ( )

Returns the CFrame of the Model's Model/PrimaryPart. This function will throw an error if no primary part exists for the Model.
void

Goes through all BaseParts in the Model. If any part’s side has a SurfaceType that can make a joint it will create a joint with any adjacent parts
void

MoveTo ( Vector3 position )

Moves the Model/PrimaryPart to the given position. If a primary part has not been specified then the root part of the model will be used.
void

ResetOrientationToIdentity ( )

[Deprecated]

Resets the rotation of the model’s parts to the previously set identity rotation, which is done through the Model/SetIdentityOrientation method.
void

SetIdentityOrientation ( )

[Deprecated]

Sets the identity rotation of the given model, allowing you to reset the rotation of the entire model later, through the use of the ResetOrientationToIdentity method.
void

SetPrimaryPartCFrame ( CFrame cframe )

Sets the BasePart/CFrame of the Model's Model/PrimaryPart. All other parts in the model will also be moved and will maintain their orientation and offset respective to the Model/PrimaryPart. This function will throw an error if no Model/PrimaryPart exists for the model.
void

TranslateBy ( Vector3 delta )

Shifts a Model by the given Vector3 offset, preserving the Model's orientation. If another BasePart or Terrain already exists at the new position then the Model will overlap said object.
