so basically i have this cutscene of the player walking in to their house and whenever the player interacts with the hitbox it doesnt activate (THIS IS ONLY 1 PART OF IT)

local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local camfolder = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Cams2")

local tweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

-- Get all required parts
local hit = camfolder:FindFirstChild("Hitbox2")
local playerpos = camfolder:FindFirstChild("PlayerPosition2")
local camera1 = camfolder:FindFirstChild("camera1")
local camera2 = camfolder:FindFirstChild("camera2")
local door = workspace:FindFirstChild("Door")

if not (hit and playerpos and camera1 and camera2 and door) then
    warn("Missing one or more required objects in Workspace or Cams2.")
    return
end

local played = false

-- Create camera tween
local camTween = tweenService:Create(camera, TweenInfo.new(3, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut), {
    CFrame = camera2.CFrame
})

hit.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
    if played then return end

    local character = otherPart:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
    if character and character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and character == player.Character then
        print("Cutscene triggered")
        played = true

        local humanoid = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
        local root = char:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

        -- Freeze movement
        if humanoid then
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
            humanoid.JumpPower = 0
        end

        -- Open the door (make invisible/non-collide)
        door.Transparency = 1
        door.CanCollide = false

        -- Set up cutscene camera
        camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
        camera.CFrame = camera1.CFrame

        -- Move player to start of cutscene
        if root then
            root.CFrame = playerpos.CFrame
        end

        ```

        -- Tween both camera and player into the house
        local movePlayer = tweenService:Create(root, TweenInfo.new(3, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut), {

        camTween:Play()
        movePlayer:Play()
        camTween.Completed:Wait()

        -- Close the door
        door.Transparency = 0
        door.CanCollide = true

        task.wait(0.5)

        -- Restore control
        if humanoid then
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 7.2
            humanoid.JumpPower = 50
        end

#

thats the other part

#

i was using chatgpt to see if i could fix it but doesnt seem like it helped a bunch

#

and just to put it out there i dont know jack shit abt scripting so pls be patient

#

this is the folder of stuff

#

Your script creates the camTween outside the hit.Touched function but never plays it

#

add camTween:Play

#

camTween:Play()

#

sync the door with the cutscene

#

task.wait(put your number here)

#

The played flag is good but if the player resets and the script runs again. played is reset Consider using setAttribute on hit to store state:

#

hit:SetAttribute("Played", true)

#

this is the fixed script lmk

#

bruh

#

also learn scripting

#

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local camfolder = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Cams2")

local tweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local hit = camfolder:FindFirstChild("Hitbox2")
local playerpos = camfolder:FindFirstChild("PlayerPosition2")
local camera1 = camfolder:FindFirstChild("camera1")
local camera2 = camfolder:FindFirstChild("camera2")
local door = workspace:FindFirstChild("Door")

if not (hit and playerpos and camera1 and camera2 and door) then
warn("Missing one or more required objects in Workspace or Cams2.")
return
end

local played = hit:GetAttribute("Played") or false

local camTween = tweenService:Create(camera, TweenInfo.new(3, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut), {
CFrame = camera2.CFrame
})

hit.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
if played then return end

local character = otherPart:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
if character and character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and character == player.Character then
    print("Cutscene triggered")
    played = true
    hit:SetAttribute("Played", true)

    local humanoid = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
    local root = char:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

 
    if humanoid then
        humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
        humanoid.JumpPower = 0
    end

    
    task.wait(0.5) 
    door.Transparency = 1
    door.CanCollide = false


    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
    camera.CFrame = camera1.CFrame


    if root then
        root.CFrame = playerpos.CFrame
    end

   
    camTween:Play()

controls
camTween.Completed:Wait()
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom

    if humanoid then
        humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
        humanoid.JumpPower = 50
    end
end

end)

kindred remnant also learn scripting

im trying i can kinda see links cause i’m learning C in comp sci in school

hoary acorn Apr 4, 2025, 4:18 AM

#

kindred remnant but this should fix it

tysm i’ll see if it works

hoary acorn Apr 4, 2025, 4:19 AM

hoary acorn Apr 4, 2025, 4:20 AM

kindred remnant Apr 4, 2025, 4:20 AM
