[SOLVED] How to implement roll in aircraft flight script?
So far I have this simple plane flying script here
01 | local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService") |
02 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
03 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
04 | local shipPart = workspace.TestShip.PrimaryPart |
05 |
06 | local MAX_SPEED = 150 |
07 | local SPEED = 50 |
08 | local ACCELERATION = 1 |
09 |
10 | game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function() |
11 |
12 | shipPart.BodyVelocity.Velocity = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame.LookVector * SPEED |
13 | shipPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame.Position, workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame.Position + workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame.LookVector) |
14 |
15 | if UIS:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) then |

The plane will fly in the direction of the camera. I want the plane to roll when the player presses A and D, but I am unsure how to approach this. Can someone help me?

I found a solution
I created a variable called roll and incremented it by 1 or -1 when A or D is pressed. If roll ever comes equal to either 360 or -360, then it is reset to 0. I then multiplied this angle by the BodyGyro CFrame.
01 | local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService") |
02 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
03 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
04 | local shipPart = workspace.TestShip.PrimaryPart |
05 |
06 | local MAX_SPEED = 150 |
07 | local SPEED = 50 |
08 | local ACCELERATION = 1 |
09 |
10 | local roll = 0 |
11 | local rollFactor = 3 |
12 |
13 | game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function() |
14 |
15 | shipPart.BodyVelocity.Velocity = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame.LookVector * SPEED |

for left:
1 | elseif UIS:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) then |
2 | --roll left |
3 | local TS = game:GetService("TweenService") |
4 |
5 | local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0) |
6 | local goal = {} |
7 | goal.Orientation = shipPart.Orientation + Vector3.new(45,0,0) |
8 |
9 | local leftTween = TS:Create(shipPart,tweenInfo,goal) |
for right:
1 | elseif UIS:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) then |
2 | --roll left |
3 | local TS = game:GetService("TweenService") |
4 |
5 | local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0) |
6 | local goal = {} |
7 | goal.Orientation = shipPart.Orientation + Vector3.new(-45,0,0) |
8 |
9 | local leftTween = TS:Create(shipPart,tweenInfo,goal) |

The tweening is unnecessary in this case since the code is ran every frame under RenderStepped, but I can instead just change the orientation of the part incrementally. I didn't even think of that for some reason, I guess I was just overthinking blazar04 281 — 4y

However, I think I need to rotate the BodyGyro not the shipPart itself... I will leave this open for more answers for now blazar04 281 — 4y

Also, I forgot to mention that since the ship will be comprised of multiple parts, the orientation of each of the parts will be different. Using this approach would cause all parts to have the same orientation, messing up the model blazar04 281 — 4y
