When the cloned Pillar appears in workspace, why does it not slowly levitate? It just appears on the baseplate and the tween does not play

You could wrap the tween in a function and play it whenever a pillar is added to the workspace.

workspace.ChildAdded:Connect(function(child) if child.Name == "Pillar" then local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService") local TweeningInfo = TweenInfo.new(

01        5, -- Length        
02        Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, -- EasingStyle
03        Enum.EasingDirection.Out, -- EasingDirection
04        0, -- Repeat count
05        false, -- Repeatable
06        1.5 -- Delay
07 
08    )
09 
10    local PartProperties = {
11        Position = Vector3.new(0,250,0)}
12    local Tween = TweenService:Create(child,TweeningInfo,PartProperties)
13    Tween:Play()
14end

end

It did not work, no errors :C RandyN56 23 — 4y

I forgot to play the Tween lol, should work now LeedleLeeRocket 1257 — 4y

Hello again, I guess it's not solved so I'll help you out. The script isn't working because 1. the loop doesn't allow it to pass through the tween and 2. the tween will play to the original part, not cloned part. Fixing those problems isn't that hard. Here's an example how to result those problems.

01local Clickd = script.Parent.ClickDetector
02local Button = script.Parent
03local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
04local EndFolder = RS:WaitForChild("End")
05local Pillar = EndFolder.Pillar
06local Radius = 250
07local Baseplate = game.Workspace.Baseplate
08local X  -- nil value
09local Y = 0
10local Z  -- nil value
11 
12local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
13local TweeningInfo = TweenInfo.new(
14 
15    5, -- Length        
16    Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, -- EasingStyle
17    Enum.EasingDirection.Out, -- EasingDirection
18    0, -- Repeat count
19    false, -- Repeatable
20    1.5 -- Delay
21 
22)
23 
24local PartProperties = {
25    Position = Vector3.new(0,250,0)
26}
27 
28local ClonedPillar -- Nil value.
29 
30Clickd.MouseClick:Connect(function()
31    X = math.random(-250,Radius) -- Giving "X" a value.
32    Z = math.random(-250,Radius) -- Same as X.
33 
34    ClonedPillar = Pillar:Clone() -- ClonedPillar will have a variable.
35    ClonedPillar.Parent = workspace
36    ClonedPillar.Position = Vector3.new(X,52.171,Z)
37    Baseplate.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Brick yellow")
38    Baseplate.Material = Enum.Material.Slate
39 
40    local Tween = TweenService:Create(ClonedPillar,TweeningInfo,PartProperties) -- Put tween in MouseClick event.
41 
42    for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do -- Same with the "for in pairs() do" loop.
43        if v.Name == "Pillar" then
44            Tween:Play()
45        end
46    end
47end)
