how to move an object in 3d by using only angles?
what math methods should i use to get the direction?
01 | i=0 |
02 | m=1000 |
03 |
04 | angX=script.Parent.Orientation.X;--90 |
05 | angY=script.Parent.Orientation.Y;--0 |
06 | angZ=script.Parent.Orientation.Z;--0 |
07 |
08 | dirX=math.cos(math.pi*angX/180) |
09 | dirY=math.sin(math.pi*angY/180) |
10 | dirZ=math.tan(math.pi*angZ/180) |
11 |
12 | print(dirX) |
13 | print(dirY) |
14 | print(dirZ) |

i tried switching around the cos sin tan log methods but no sucess

forgot to put in i=i+1 in line 20 fullguyblox3 69 — 3y

what do you want to make, also what's the dirX, dirY, dirZ in your output Xeqro 20 — 3y

i wanted to make a rocket thing where the angle slowly decreases so i made this test first because i didnt know how to get the direction in 3d also the dirX,dirY,dirZ are the directions that i made like in 2d e.g( dirX=math.cos(ang) dirY=math.sin(ang) ) fullguyblox3 69 — 3y

Why don't you use CFrame? Part.CFrame.LookVector is might be what you are looking for and is easier to operate with. I don't know these methods you are using very well, but CFrame is a very good solution and it returns pretty much same resulst as you would expect with your method.
01 | i=0 |
02 | m=1000 |
03 |
04 | lookVector = script.Parent.CFrame.LookVector |
05 | print(lookVector) |
06 |
07 | repeat |
08 | wait(2.5) |
09 | print('wow') |
10 | workspace.launchingparttest.Position = workspace.launchingparttest.Position + lookVector |
11 |
12 | until i>=m |
13 | --doesnt move |
Also I am not sure but the reason why your method is not working is bc roblox uses Tait–Bryan angles instead of Euler angles (it's said here)

thanks! works great fullguyblox3 69 — 3y
