Part will not change position?
I have a big light beam I want at the same position as this cube at all times. Well the Cube teleports so I need the light beam to move with it. The beam is at the cubes position but when the cube moves the beam does not and it stays at the old spot. Any help here?
local beam= script.Parent
local map = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Map")
local cube = map:WaitForChild("Cube")
local cpos = cube.Position
while true do
wait()
beam.CFrame = CFrame.new(cpos)
end

local beam = script.Parent
local map = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Map")
local cube = map:WaitForChild("Cube")
local cpos = cube.Position
while true do
wait()
beam.CFrame = CFrame.new(cpos) --the problem is here
end
Since you are setting the beams CFrame to cpos (which is defined only once), you are forever setting it to the same coordinate. Instead, set it to the cube's CFrame, like so:
local beam= script.Parent
local map = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Map")
local cube = map:WaitForChild("Cube")
while true do
wait()
beam.CFrame = cube.CFrame --Every part has a CFrame property you can read, as well as write
end
