[fiery hare]

ye but i can get mouse only on client side and changing CFrame there only affect for client

and server cant see it

[thick wing]

then get the end position that you want the character to be at and send it using a remote event to the server to be changed from there

[sudden linden]

have you... maybe, perhaps, actually tried it, maybe?

[fiery hare]

game.ReplicatedStorage.OneButton.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(bool)
    local cycle
    if bool then

        local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
        local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
        local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
        local hrt: Part = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
        cycle = game["Run Service"].RenderStepped:Connect(function()
            local hitpos = mouse.Hit.Position
            hrt.CFrame = CFrame.new(hrt.Position, hitpos)
        end)

    end

    if not bool then 

        cycle:Disconnect()

    end

end)

here is script

actually i tried

it doesnt work

in global

or local server play test

[sudden linden]

at least you didn't use ai for that

[fiery hare]

only player can see it

[sudden linden]

points for effort?

[fiery hare]

xd

[thick wing]

send the cframe to the server and that should be global

[fiery hare]

ye ik but i want make that its gonna be looking like aiming

not one end point sending

[thick wing]

so you want to use heartbeat?

[fiery hare]

also tried AlignOrientation but im anchoring char so it doesnt work

[fiery hare]

i dont want to spamm FireServer() thing

but if its only the way

[thick wing]

if you want it server sided you gotta fire to the server. Unless you make the server control the "ability"

[sudden linden]

just tested it and it works fine

[fiery hare]

did you try to see it form server side?

[sudden linden]

yes, working as expected

you dont need to send it to server, the client already has network ownership of their character, so changing the cframe on the client will send it to the server automatically

[fiery hare]

...

[thick wing]

i think that's the problem. he might not be using the player's character

[sudden linden]

or you did something else dum

[fiery hare]

oh

nah

anchored thing doesnt allow to move character

like client see

but server cant cus of anchor

anyway

thx

[sudden linden]

anchoring will give network ownership to the server
