My Pad Teleport won't make the pad lower down. (simple script)?
I'm having trouble with my pad teleport to teleport to this other part constantly at the right height (y value) here's the script:
while true do
script.Parent.Position = script.Parent.Parent.Give.Position.Y(2.1) -- I need it to teleport lower
wait(0.001)
end

You can add and subtract vector3 values, so we can take advantage of that to make that work.
object.Position -= Vector3.new(0, 2.1, 0) -- this will subtract object.Position += Vector3.new(0, 2.1, 0) -- this will add
If you want it to go up you need to add, and if you want it to go down, you subtract it. If it doesn't perfectly match, just try increasing the 2.1 value or decreasing, until it perfectly matches. So here is your script implementing that:
while true do
script.Parent.Position -= Vector3.new(0, 2.1, 0) -- subtracting makes it lower, so we are using that
wait(0.001)
end
Edit: it was going down forever because I was subtracting it from the same part, it needs to be subtracted from script.Parent.Parent.Give.Position. Here is the fixed (probably) script:
while true do
script.Parent.Position = script.Parent.Parent.Give.Position - Vector3.new(0, 2.1, 0)
wait(0.001)
end
In this one we don't need to do -= as it's not subracting from itself

Thanks, you've shown me so much on how to code through these past few questions, thanks (: Elimonater10000 33 — 3y

It keeps on flying into the air, never stopping Elimonater10000 33 — 3y

It probably is because the wait() is too short, or "script.Parent" is also flying in the air User#32819 0 — 3y

I checked it but it's still going down forever Elimonater10000 33 — 3y

Maybe we should use an event when them give position changes the pad moves there Elimonater10000 33 — 3y

Let me test a script using that rq User#32819 0 — 3y

It worked, thanks so much. I've added another question about 4 hours ago about a food that a player eats and it gives them a speed boost. If u know how to deal with tools that would be great. Elimonater10000 33 — 3y

Yeah, I'll look into that User#32819 0 — 3y
