I'm tryin to make a projectile using tween service but the only problem is that the instance is a model. And i want to make it to be looking at HumanoidRootPart last position.

hollow igloo Jun 11, 2025, 12:35 AM

#

tween the cframe of the primary part

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 12:38 AM

#

how im going to make it look so?

#

i want to make it to look at the HumanoidRootPart last pos

hollow igloo Jun 11, 2025, 12:39 AM

#

cframe.lookat

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 12:40 AM

#

oke

#

like this?

google is your friend

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 12:45 AM

#

bruh

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

wth do u mean with google is ur friend?????

#

i want to know something that i didnt find on google

#

bro this world is cooked

#

you good now?

#

also my guy. naming a variable cframe doesn't turn it into a CFrame.

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:26 AM

#

your logic is completely fucked

#

you didn't even need to make cframe a variable in the first place. since it did nothing at all. cframe.lookAt makes no sense because your variable cframe is a Vector3 not a CFrame

#

there's also no need to tween the orientation of the projectile, unless that's what you intended. you would simply set the CFrame of the primarypart to look at the HumanoidRootPart

#

woven pebble you didn't even need to make cframe a variable in the first place. since it did ...

yeah i changed it

#

now it looks like that

#

but it still doesnt make sense

#

like getposition.CFrame

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:35 AM

#

woven pebble there's also no need to tween the orientation of the projectile, unless that's w...

and how tf i make it to just get the position of it

#

not the orientation

#

and yes i want to make the model to look at the rootpart

#

why nobody answers my questions

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:38 AM

#

trying to change the orientation of a model like this requires getting the current pivot

#

you're missing that step

#

Model:GetPivot() returns a CFrame

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:40 AM

#

hmm

#

so i make a variable to it?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:40 AM

#

noooo

#

you're lacking basic programming knowledge rn

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:40 AM

#

im not from america im strugglin to understand

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:41 AM

#

it's okay. but you need to understand what these functions return

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:41 AM

#

im srry

#

gulp

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:42 AM

#

you wrote that line wrong.

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:43 AM

#

so how i make it

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:43 AM

#

Model:GetPivot() returns a CFrame

#

specifically the CFrame of the model

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:44 AM

#

...

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:44 AM

#

:GetPivot() does not have any parameters

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:44 AM

#

oke

#

so just

#

ProjectileClone:GetPivot()?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 1:50 AM

#

local oldPivot = ProjectileClone:GetPivot()
local newPivot = CFrame.lookAt(oldPivot.Position, ``Vector3``)
ProjectileClone:PivotTo(newPivot)

Model:GetPivot() returns a CFrame
CFrame.lookAt(Position0,Position1) : Position0 and Position1 are Vector3. The constructor returns a CFrame
Model:PivotTo(CFrame) returns a CFrame

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 1:59 AM

#

makes sense

#

i think it works but the tween gets the orientation too

#

how i just get the position?

#

i will try to make it to be like the launcher projectile

#

looks easy

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:12 AM

#

the tween should come after the orientation change

wintry vergeBOT Jun 11, 2025, 2:12 AM

#

studio ** You are now Level 2! ** studio

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:13 AM

#

and the goal should just be {CFrame = ProjectileClone:PivotTo(Whereever you want the projectile to go)}

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:17 AM

#

thanks

#

the output said that is unable to cast a Vector3 to CF

#

but if i put the cframe it isnt going to get the orientation too?

#

heeelp

#

ProjectileClone:PivotTo(NewPivot)
local Tween = TweenService:Create(PrimaryProjectile, TweenInfo.new(3, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear), {CFrame = ProjectileClone:PivotTo(PickedPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position)})
Tween:Play()

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:40 AM

#

@woven pebble respond me bruh

#

u r the angel

#

that is goin to save me

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:45 AM

#

rigid jolt the output said that is unable to cast a Vector3 to CF

because you put a Vector3 in the place of a CFrame after I already explained to you that :PivotTo() has a CFrame parameter.

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:45 AM

#

woven pebble ```lua local oldPivot = ProjectileClone:GetPivot() local newPivot = CFrame.lookA...

which I said in this message right here

#

Position is a Vector3

#

not a CFrame

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:50 AM

#

so where i put it?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

did you read the message?

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

yeah

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

I gave you each constructor with the required information for it to work

#

It literally says Model:PivotTo(CFrame)

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

are u saying that i need to make a new variable to make it tween?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

I never said anything about a new variable

#

I'm saying you're doing it wrong

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:51 AM

#

hmmm

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

rigid jolt heeelp

this line is wrong

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

let me read it a couple of times

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

look where you put in the "CFrame"

#

it's not a CFrame

#

it's a Position

#

which is a Vector3

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

woven pebble this line is wrong

yeah a vector3 cannot be assign as a cframe

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

exactly

#

you can not put in a Vector3 for a CFrame

#

you're using the constructor wrong

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:52 AM

#

so how i make it

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:53 AM

#

by using a CFrame

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:53 AM

#

ok i will try

#

it just teleport to meeeeeeeee

#

i made it like that

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:55 AM

#

yeah

#

you set it up like that

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:55 AM

#

but it teleports to me

#

i dont want that

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:56 AM

#

because you set it up to do that

#

then why did you write it to do that?

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:56 AM

#

yeah i know

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:56 AM

#

woven pebble then why did you write it to do that?

idk

#

{CFrame = PickedPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame} bcz if i do like that the script gets the humanoidrootpart orientation

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 2:57 AM

#

the script gets the CFrame of the HumanoidRootPart

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 2:58 AM

#

yeah i just want it to get the position

#

bcz i alr know how to get the cframe

#

and mayb i will try use bodyforce but idk how use it

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:00 AM

#

rigid jolt yeah i just want it to get the position

that makes literally no difference

#

it will do the same thing

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:00 AM

#

what

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:00 AM

#

whether you're tweening the CFrame or the Position, you're simply losing orientation

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:00 AM

#

position and orientation is not the same thing

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:01 AM

#

CFrame is Position + Orientation

#

Vector3 is Position

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:01 AM

#

yeah ik

#

yeaaahhh i know what is pos

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:01 AM

#

getting the Vector3 is literally going to do the same thing for you

#

your issue is that you don't seem to understand how tweens work

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:01 AM

#

yeah i dont understand

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

the goal is the endpoint for the part you're manipulating

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

ok

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

you set the goal of the projectile to be your character's rootpart CFrame

#

so obviously, the part is just going to go to your character

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

so it will change to zero?

#

bcz if i make a CFrame = CFrame.new(Endpos.Position) it resets the position

#

so dont use tween?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:03 AM

#

what do you mean it resets the position?

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

bcz it doesnt have one so it sets to 0

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

huh?

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

oh

#

idk wth im talkin abt

#

just help me to do bodyforce

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

dude

#

why don't you just go read the roblox documentation

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:05 AM

#

i will

#

but idk where starts

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:05 AM

#

whereever you're struggling

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:05 AM

#

projectiles?

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:06 AM

#

sure

#

but more specific

#

CFrames

#

Vector3's

#

BodyMovers

#

Tweens

#

anything you do not understand

#

and learn to read the documentation

#

it tells you what the parameters are and what the function/constructor returns

rigid jolt Jun 11, 2025, 3:08 AM

#

and my brain doesnt help if i dont understand english right

woven pebble Jun 11, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

yeah you're just at a disadvantage right now
