@above I was telling him how he would do it with a ParticleEmitter, well what should work.

How particles work: SPEED: Determines how fast the particles move when spawned ACCELERATION: Determines how much speed the particles gain over time RATE: Determines how quickly/how many particles spawn at once Then there's the block itself: The size of the block determines where the particles spawn from. If you have a 4x4x4 cube with an emitter, the particles will spawn from random points within that cube. If you have a 0.1x0.1x0.1 tiny cube, the particles won't spawn from different areas-they'll spawn from the same place. They will stay in place if they spawn from a .1x.1x.1 source cube.

won't let me turn the part size to 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 , so i put it in a script while true do script.Parent.Size = Vector3.new(0.1,0.1,0.1) end but it crashes???? wtf

Set acceleration to a negative value?

in my opinion, acceleration does not having anything to do with this, its already set to 0 by default, and when put to negative or positive, it moves even more. setting the part to 0.1x0.1x0.1 size is reasonable, but for some reason you can't do that without a mesh, and with a mesh, the part still stays 0.2,0.2,0.2 since thats the lowest you can get without a mesh :/
