Any alternatives to CFrame? Furniture clipping through floor.

Asked by

So, I am working on a sinking ship game and one of its features is having the furniture slide around when at a certain angle. Although, I have ran into a problem where the furniture will clip through the ground and It is really annoying. I am currently using CFrame and I know CFrame isn't the best for stuff like what I am explaining. I haven't got any errors, I'm simply looking for a resolution and suggestion to this problem as I want to make sure I am able to implement this feature as it will really add detail into the game.

You can use Vector3 but CFrame would be your best option. You can use other stuff like GetTouchingParts for any clipping greatneil80 2647 — 3y

Hi I have a solution to your question!

So 1st you want to put all your furniture into a folder so you have them all in 1 place!

Then you probably want to an-anchor all the furniture once the ship is tilting so they slide off on their own.

You also want a set position of when to un-anchor the furniture

heres an example code:

view source
01local furfold = game.Workspace.Folder
02local ship = game.Workspace.ship
03local furchild = furfold:GetChildren()
04local furnum = #furchild
05 
06if ship.Orientation == vector3.new(0,0,90) -- say the furniture will slide if the ship is tilted 90 degrees on the z axis.
07    for i = 1, furnum do
08        local furniture = furchild[i]
09        furniture.Anchored = false
10    end
11end

Hope this helped!

Any questions? Just ask!
