How to make my CFrame loop over and over?

This is probably simple, but I just learned about CFrame. I'm trying to make the part this script is in, Move up and down over and over in the current position it is already in. This does not seem to loop.



function movement()
    while true do
        wait()
        for y = -5,5, 0.1 do
            script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(-98, 1.7, -15) * CFrame.new(0, y, 0)
        end
    end
end

movement()

Is there another way to move my part from a position instead of assigning it to stay in the X axis and Y axis above? i.e. if I dragged this part somewhere else, It stays there not moves(Minus Up and Down)

What do you mean "this doesn't seem to loop"? What does it do instead? BlueTaslem 18071 — 10y

Currently it freezes at position (-98, 6.7, -15) alphawolvess 1784 — 10y

The problem is you didn't put a yeild in your for loop - It would just immediately get stuck somewhere. Try this

function movement()
    local down = false
    while wait() do
        down = not down
        for y = 1,10 do
            wait(.05)
            if down then
                num = -.1
            else
                num = .1
            end
            script.Parent.CFrame = script.Parent.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,num,0)
        end
    end
end

movement()
