So I've literally been spending days trying to figure out how on earth the math for mario kart style drifting would be.

I am really bad when it comes to the math side of programming in general, it is so confusing for me to understand more complex integrations.

Here's what I have written currently:

local primaryPart = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.PrimaryPart

script.Parent.Changed:Connect(function()
	while true do
		if script.Parent.Value == false then
			break
		end
		
		-- drift here
		
		wait()
	end
end)

Within the 'drift here' comment, I have use a number of different things including:

  • Nested for loops
  • TweenService
  • CFraming
  • Vectoring

I have also searched up similar works where the closest I have found was a realistic one done on unity and the unity java code works takes in very different inputs from roblox lua.

Even a push in the right direction is a big help. Thank you.

I mean, I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki-tWT50cEQ&ab_channel=MixandJam but it is for unity games. The translated code would look different for roblox lua games but because physics differ slightly on roblox, I need to translate it for it to work. I have since tried many methods but they just result in the kart glitching stuck in the same position.
