How can I make a model get spawned right next to me in roblox?

Question

I am trying to make a dummy spawner for my gun testing game but I cant get it to spawn next to the player

I tried to use this but it just gives me an error saying "attempt to index number with 'Character'"

script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function(player)
    local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    local pos = char:GetPrimaryPartCFrame().p
    local clone = script.Parent.Dummy:Clone()
    clone.Parent = game.Workspace
    clone:MoveTo(pos)
end)

Answer 1

.MouseButton1Down event returns the X and Y screen coordinate in pixels, not the player as specified in the api reference

thus doing 5.Character causes an error

now for your problem

assuming this is a localscript

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
    local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    local pos = char:GetPrimaryPartCFrame().p
    local clone = script.Parent.Dummy:Clone()
    clone.Parent = game.Workspace
    clone:MoveTo(pos)
end)
