Try animating it I guess

#

But those variable names 💀

#

You can make animation for it

#

If I understand your goals right

junior terrace
#

that makes no sense for what im doing

#

basically

#

im trying to make the player go up and slightly forwards using a body position relative to the player's position

#

but the direction it brings them in is always the same relative to the world

#

so if i spawn in and use it facing the direction i spawned, it works fine and looks good

#

but if i rotate my character 90 degrees and use it, the player will get moved in the same direction it did when it was facing forwards

#

idk if that makes sense

fickle holly
#

It probably does but it's deep night for me and I am highly regarded and in different dimension so I still can't come up what is wrong.

#

Wait

#

I see

#

Just take current position of player

#

And add numbers to it

junior terrace
#

hrp.Position + Vector3.new(0,17,-5)

#

thats what i did

fickle holly
#

First I would say to store position of player. Once that done I would do that it would add certain number let's say +4 to Y axis

junior terrace
#

why would i need to store the position of the player when i can just get it right there

#

and thats literally exactly what i did by doing + vector3.new

fickle holly
#

Vector3.new(storedposition.X, storedposition.Y + 4, storedposition.Z)

junior terrace
#

thats what "+ vector3.new" does

fickle holly
#

That's correct

junior terrace
#

AKA exactly what ive been doing

#

ur just adding more steps to what i did originally

#

the same outcome would happen

fickle holly
#

That's weird.

#

Try printing if it saves your position correctly

#

And also try saving rotation

junior terrace
#

rotation doesnt matter

#

i dont need to rotate the character at all

#

and i already know its saving the position correctly because it wouldnt be working in the one direction if it wasnt

#

sir do you know what you are talking about

fickle holly
#

I am but I am worried we don't understand eachother

junior terrace
#

the bodyposition is moving the character relative to the world and not the player

#

that should be enough to understand whats going on

#

did you watch the videos i sent?

fickle holly
#

Yes I did

junior terrace
#

ill make another one showing what i did in between takes

fickle holly
#

I can't see the difference really

junior terrace
#

there is a VERY big difference

#

notice how when i rotate my character 90 degrees i go in the same direction as the first one

#

thats the issue

fickle holly
#

NOW I SEE

junior terrace
#

its moving relative to the world's xyz axis and not mine

fickle holly
#

Never had this in Roblox studio. Only experienced it in Unity

junior terrace
#

so you dont use studio?

fickle holly
#

Ofc I do

#

I use both

junior terrace
#

oh lol

fickle holly
#

Hm

#

There are many things that might come to my mind.

fickle holly
#

I got an idea

#

Try using CFrame property instead of Position

junior terrace
#

you cant, bodyposition is position only

#

there is no such thing as cframe in bodyposition

#

"bodyposition.CFrame" is not a thing

fickle holly
#

Ye idk why i put CFrame

#

Sorry I am very stupid today

#

But

#

You can still use the function I suggested

junior terrace
#

nope, doesnt work

fickle holly
#

WorldToLocal()

junior terrace
#

worldtolocal is not a property of cframe

#

valid member rather

Wait that's CFrame

Shi I forgot that
