I can't use math.rad(360) | Roblox Studio Community | Page 1

#

When I try to turn the part 360° it just thinks I said 0° since 360° and 0° is at the same place. I can't find a solution for this, the thing I'm trying to do is turn the part 360° like a full loop around it self.

{
    CFrame = Spinny1.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(360),0,0)
}

what you want it to be and what your game about?

fossil lotus what you want it to be and what your game about?

It's not a game actually, it's an test. Trying to make a working slot machine but the rotations are just so annoying. Here's a clip if you want to see. (First one is 360 and other two is 180)

umm

its going back

#

what seems to be the issue in here?

fossil lotus its going back

The first one

#

The first one is not doing a loop

#

I want it do to a full loop around it self

#

like go bottom and come back from top

it's rotation won't change at all if you tween like this since it's equivalent to CFrame.Angles(0,0,0)

fossil lotus what do you think my code is, Ai?

I think you use help of the AI at least a little bit, not so sure. Also it does not work at all since the tween plays once and then don't look for the changed values

i've done this which basically splits it into two tweens and adds a small increment to the rotation after the first tween has finished to make sure the second tween goes in the direction we want, i'm not sure if this is the best way to approach it but i hope it works fine for you

hoary shale Nov 12, 2025, 12:02 PM

#

It probably will work since you turn it 180 degree twice but I just wonder is there a better way for this instead of making 2 tweens

fluid flicker Nov 12, 2025, 12:06 PM

#

i guess you could tween a number value representing the rotation between 0 and 360 instead of the part's rotation itself and use RunService.Stepped to update its rotation each frame

#

You could most likely make 2 points as a variable (e.g. p1 = 180degrees, p2 = 360) or for safety, 4 points each +90 degrees

#

Then just tween it to each point at a constant rate
