So....

I tried to make a part move on it's axis, not the worlds axis using a script and....

ERROR

Yes, I used CFrame... but I'm really bad at using lookVector, I know you do something with it... but what?

DO NOT POST A WIKI LINK TO CFRAME OR LOOKVECTOR WHICH DOESN'T GO ANYWHERE

No need to use lookVector.

local function translate(part, x, y, z)
    -- Multiplying two CFrames returns their composition.
    -- Their rotations and THEN their positions are added.

    part.CFrame = part.CFrame   -- CFrame with part's rotation and position
        * CFrame.new(x, y, z)   -- CFrame with no rotation (offset)
end


translate(script.Parent, 2, 0, 0)

translate(workspace.Particual2, workspace.Particual.Position.X, workspace.Particual.Position.Y, workspace.Particual.Position.Z)

And here's the list!

-> workspace -> Particual1 -> Particual2
