not changing children position

[raven thistle]

when i apply a position to a part in roblox studio the children dont follow it

[restive carbon]

are the parts welded

[sly rapids]

weld

[visual mica]

weld

[raven thistle]

i tried it

it didn’t work

[visual mica]

weld it again

[swift ember]

set cframe

no position

model it

set the part to the primary part

[visual mica]

good point

[swift ember]

model:setprimarypartCFrame

[visual mica]

deprecated

:PivotTo()

[swift ember]

whats the new?

pivot to

good point

[visual mica]

or just PrimaryPart.CFrame = ...

[raven thistle]

ill try welding it again maybe it will work

[swift ember]

model it

[raven thistle]

didnt work

[raven thistle]

cant

[visual mica]

it should work

[visual mica]

you can

1. create a model
2. put everything in the model
3. set primarypart to your part
4. weld everything to that part

[raven thistle]

welding it didnt work

[visual mica]

use easyweld or smth

[visual mica]

show

[raven thistle]

wait

[glad pendant]

hmmm

use ```lua
part.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPosition)

if you really must use the Position , than move the children manually

and you can also use models, put the part and children in a model and use ```lua
model:SetPrimaryPartCFrame()

[visual mica]

deprecated!!

[glad pendant]

ok use ```lua
model:PivotTo(CFrame.new(newPosition))

[visual mica]

good 😎

[raven thistle]

doesnt work

[glad pendant]

why

[raven thistle]

thats a good question

[glad pendant]

i know , cause most of the time there is errors

[raven thistle]

the children stay in the position that was assigned in roblox studio and not the code

[visual mica]

are they anchored?

[raven thistle]

there are no errors

[visual mica]

?

[raven thistle]

i tried turning it off and on

neither worked

[glad pendant]

hmmmm

[visual mica]

it should be off

[glad pendant]

set a primary part

model.PrimaryPart = model."SomeMainPart"
model:PivotTo(CFrame.new(newPosition))

[raven thistle]

okay

[glad pendant]

and as cash said , unanchor all children

[raven thistle]

wait it wasnt a model when i was trying it btw

is that a problem?

bc when it is a model the script doesnt want to clone it from the replicated storage

[glad pendant]

if you set a primary part and unanchor it will for sure work

also yes

if its not a model , than PivotTo() wont work

[raven thistle]

but it wont clone

[glad pendant]

well than , for parts and not models use
part.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPosition)

it will move the welded children

but still the best way is making a model

[raven thistle]

ill try it

[glad pendant]

its not hard to make a model

@visual mica we really should find a builder and make a game and be richey

[raven thistle]

ik but i wont do it bc its not cloning

[glad pendant]

than make sure to weld the parts

[elfin pelican]

** You are now Level 5! **

[glad pendant]

after welding the parts use
parentPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPosition)

[visual mica]

this shit works smoothly

[visual mica]

i had an idea of making a game similar to CASH To CATS project

basically incremental

but my brain is too dumb
