Cutscene help

[latent cipher]

so i was making a Cutscene for my game and i want it so when u trigger the proximity prompt your character gets teleported to a certian position, the animation plays the screen fades to black and all of that other stuff, but im only up to the character gets teleported part bit but i keep running into an issue where it just dosent teleport the player but if it helps i had an error output before saying: "CFrame is not a valid member of Model "Workspace.MYUSERNAME" - Client - CutsceneHandler:28"

And help would be greatly appreciated!

lmk if you need anything else from me!

[past pike]

use player.Character:PivotTo(CFrame)

[latent cipher]

no errors but just didnt teleport player to the part

would you want me to share the code with you?

@past pike ?

[plush frost]

Make a module for it.

[latent cipher]

just curious, how would that make a difference?

[plush frost]

Did you write it in a local script?

@latent cipher

[latent cipher]

yea

i did @plush frost

[plush frost]

I used a module script for mine and it works great

[latent cipher]

alr, maybe ill try it, how did ur logic go?

how does urs work

i just wanna know cuz i dont think im doing it the best way

[plush frost]

I wrote the dialogue system and cutscene in two different modules

The cutscene is a class, and the dialogue system is a service

Also, I wrote the cutscene as a inheritance of another module, called scenario, although I don’t know if it’s the best way, but it works so yeah. 😅

[latent cipher]

<--- dumbass

im still a bit new to scripting

[plush frost]

LOL

Nah no worries

[latent cipher]

wat does a class do?

[plush frost]

It’s related to OOP (Object Orientated Programming), so it’s like creating a object with properties that you can interact with.

Such as a part

[latent cipher]

ok

[plush frost]

Like a class such as “Vehicle”

[latent cipher]

uh huh

[plush frost]

It could have its own custom functions and variables

Like Vehicle:Stop()

Or Vehicle.Owner

[latent cipher]

oh kk

[latent cipher]

and you have to script the stop function and stuff?

[plush frost]

Yeah

[latent cipher]

oh ok

[plush frost]

Stop() is a function in ur class

function Vehicle.Stop()

[latent cipher]

i have something like that but its a bit different, i want the player to get teleported to a certian part, then an animatin plays, and then the screen fades to black and stuff

[latent cipher]

alr

[latent cipher]

got it

[plush frost]

That’s why I wrote mine as a class

[latent cipher]

how would it go as a class?

[plush frost]

Wdym

[latent cipher]

like if i wanted my cutscene stuff to be a class, how would it go? like Player:TeleportToPart() or Player:PlayAnimation()?

[plush frost]

I can write it basically as what u suggested, because of how flexible the module is.

[latent cipher]

ok

what would i have to do if i wanted everyone to see the animation and the doors opening?

like remote events and ServerScripts?

[plush frost]

Yeah. You can use a remote event from the server and call: RemoteEvent:FireAllClients

[latent cipher]

oh ok

tysm for ur help bro 🔥, ill do that once im back home cuz im leaving soon and will be busy for a while

dam this is gonna be hard to code tho

[latent cipher]

oh yh btw is it ok if i dm u some questions about how to do this and that?

[plush frost]

Oh sure

[past pike]

thats exactly the reason why OOP is hated, cause people use it for such simple things as a cutscene 😭

i wouldn't use a class for this it just overcomplicates stuff

[latent cipher]

What would you do in this situation then?

[turbid ibex]

** You are now Level 7! **

[latent cipher]

Ty

[plush frost]

What would u recommend then?

[past pike]

nothing special just script that cutscene😭

[plush frost]

I could, but it would be really messy, and my ocd would kill me.

I think the system that I made would work better in an actual game. Since all u need to do is to is write the function inside my module and u can run it anytime. Like to me it’s amazing.

[latent cipher]

Wait so you write one module for all of the functions and one to control everything?

[plush frost]

Kinda but not really

I write functions in my modules, and basically all it does is run the function.

I’ll probably add a feature where you can add your own functions but I’ll be doing that later.

[latent cipher]

Alr

[latent cipher]

but like, i still cant find a solution to ts

[plush frost]

Yeah I suggest that u use his advice and script it normally then. Since OOP is probably not the best idea for beginners, it’ll be easier to experiment what works and improve from there.

@latent cipher

I honestly just write it modularly because I find it fun to, but yeah it might not really be necessary.

[latent cipher]

Ok

[past pike]

The problem is that OOP would overcomplicate this easy task bro

[latent cipher]

I'll just ask ai atp

[unique junco]

you mean the teleporting?

models dont have a cframe

use model:pivotto as mentioned in first response (player.character is usually a model)

[unique junco]

"CFrame is not a valid member of Model "Workspace.MYUSERNAME" - Client - CutsceneHandler:28"
google the error next time maybe, you can learn a lot in doing that

and ya at this level ai can probably help you but that doesnt last long

[latent cipher]

So what would you suggest I do? I feel like one reason is because I'm running this in a local script so I'm trying out with a server script right now
