im trying to make a dash with char:MoveTo to get a quick snap dash (so DONT suggest linear velocity unless you have a way to make it instant), im struggling mainly with weird interaction with walls and the dashes going up a slight bit
#Dash with char:MoveTo (SOLVED)
tired hound
by weird interaction with walls i mean sometimes dashing through or to the top of the wall
this is the cutoff line btw char:MoveTo(Pos + Vector3.new(direction.X * ((10 * (i-1)) + (direction.X * (dist - 0.2))), -2, direction.Z * (10 * (i-1)) + (direction.Z * (dist - 0.2))))

Either Humanoid:Moveto decides you can step over the wall or the physics teleports you there because of collisions. If it is the Humanoid:MoveTo, simply teleport by CFrame, then that lil jump, clamp the Y position so it stuck to the ground.
other wise teleport a lil before the wall, or slightly off the wall, you could simply have ur raycast length cover that "offset" distance
tired hound
dist is the raycast.Distance
and in the moveto formula i subtracted it with 0.2
doews that not work?
keen marten
yeah, teleport like dist - 0.5

** You are now Level 9! **
tired hound
yeah
keen marten
ur formula basically says direction.X^2 * 0.2
which isn't like linear so ur offset will get smaller over the distance
so it aint offsetting 0.2 no matter what the dist it
keen marten
yeah but you can't just subtrack the Vector3 mind you
its lowkey tricky without experience with vectors but u can figure it out, else I'm here ig
tired hound
does this work?
tired hound
yeah but you can't just subtrack the Vector3 mind you
i mean i am subtracting the distance which is a num value
the distance and everything other than direction is basically multipliers
and the direction itself is converted to numval through .X and .Z (not using y value for now)
y is at -2 cuz of the dash abit up thing
i tested it just now and its around the same effect
the worst thing about the bug is that its super inconsistent
sometimes it works sometimes it clips
and because of that i cant really pinpoint whats happening
keen marten
yeah its just slight things, on the left expression, (direction.X * 10 * i - 1) is that you should direction.X * (10 *(i - 1)) so that you can dash 10*(i-1) studs foward
that should work i think.
keen marten
sorry the formula works its just I wouldve instead, got the unit vector and multiply it by your dashLength which would be the dashLength = (base + dist - 0.2)
but like it works
If ur still gonne use MoveTo you might have to increase ur margin
tired hound
the problem is still here...
tired hound
If ur still gonne use MoveTo you might have to increase ur margin
hm?
keen marten
try increase ur margin(0.2) before trying the teleport to CFrame
and be sure to apply the changes to ur Z too 💀
keen marten
lol nice
tired hound
OK

** You are now Level 14! **
tired hound
YES
keen marten
it works?
keen marten
lol nice
tired hound
it still goes up
and it can still go to top of walls
btw i've tested using anchor before,
keen marten
I would just set the Y position to the starting Y position right?
tired hound
the teleporting to the top isnt beacuse of my teleporting to inside the wall and roblox bringing me up
tired hound
I would just set the Y position to the starting Y position right?
i mean that would just mean 0 really
since im adding into Pos which is essentially base
but since dash is going abit up i made it -2
which didnt change anything weirdly
also by going on top of walls it LITERALLY teleports to the top of the wall NO MATTER HOW TALL IT IS
tired hound
you suggest i use cframe instead?
keen marten
so I would, after the Move set the Position to the origional Y position
no u should be fine
although I wouldve, I just dont wanna change ur code
tired hound
hmm
alright i'll try that
DE.
DUDE.
THAT IS HILARIOUS
IT WORKS
IT FIXED BOTH ISSUES
keen marten
oh lol nice
tired hound
THANKS SO MUCH MAN
keen marten
I was afraid it wouldn't
keen marten
well if you should you can consider using like a tween and CFrames
tired hound
well if you should you can consider using like a tween and CFrames
ah i've tried using tween before
well not on this script
but for some reason when the player dies it like
gets offset or something?
im not sure what its about but i just avoid using tweens now
on characters specifically
and i tried cframes at first, some guy suggested i use :MoveTo instead tho
keen marten
oh it may be because of fall damage I would imagine
you'd prolly have to just disable fall damage during it
tired hound
you'd prolly have to just disable fall damage during it
i dont have fall damage but meh
keen marten
lol thanks for telling me, ig I have some research
tired hound
oh boy.
ok
the clipping is back
i've tested, its because the raycast isnt detecting the wall for some reason?
and the serverside character is offset up
so like they're floating
Dash with char:MoveTo (STILL UNSOLVED)
might make a new post for this ngl
keen marten
yeah mabye
quiet compass
Just tween?
