Hello,

How do I make a part randomly rotate.

Iv'e been trying to figure this out for a while yet haven't found any tutorials of scripting help.

Help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

This script will randomly rotate the part, and ensure that it doesn't change its position if it happens to be inside another part:

local part = game.Workspace.Part

while true do
    wait(1)
    local X = math.rad(math.random(360))
    local Y = math.rad(math.random(360))
    local Z = math.rad(math.random(360))
    part.CFrame = CFrame.new(part.Position) * CFrame.Angles(X, Y, Z)
end

It's a little complicated, but if you need an explanation, be sure to leave a comment.

This is a more simple script that won't account for when the part is inside of another part:

local part = game.Workspace.Part

while true do
    wait(1)
    local X = math.random(360)
    local Y = math.random(360)
    local Z = math.random(360)
    part.Orientation = Vector3.new(X, Y, Z)
end

math.random(360) returns a random whole number ranging from 1 - 360(inclusive).

Theres actually two arguments of "math.random". In this case, use "math.random(0, 360)". youtubemasterWOW 2741 — 4y

--This is pretty simple

local Part = workspace.BPart  -- Get the part
local RadRotation = math.random(10, 50) --Make a random rotation value

Part.Orientation = Vector3.new(RadRotation, RadRotation, RadRotation) --- Rotate the part

that goes in 1 direction since the same random is for X and Y and Z greatneil80 2647 — 4y

yeah you could separate the values. YTGonzo 20 — 4y
