How do I CFrame a model? As in move a whole model at the same time?
I'm trying to make a script where when the player pressed b they can spawn a certain model. And the model starts from the air and slowly comes down. But I don't know how to move the bricks at the same time.
My current script which I know wont work:
01 | player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | mouse = player:GetMouse() |
03 | CanUse = true |
04 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
05 | -- Detects if keydown is pressed |
06 | if key == "b" then |
07 | CanUse = false |
08 | print ("spawning model....") |
09 | BG = game.Lighting.BegginerBricks:clone("BG") |
10 | BG.Parent = game.Workspace |
11 | BG.CFrame = player.Character.Torso.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,100,0) |
12 | for i = 100, 0, -.5 do |
13 | BG.CFrame = player.Character.Torso.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,i,0) |
14 | wait() |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end) |
Solved! to anybody who needs it here is my full working script.
01 | player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | mouse = player:GetMouse() |
03 | CanUse = true |
04 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
05 | -- Detects if keydown is pressed |
06 | if key == "b" then |
07 | CanUse = false |
08 | print ("spawning model....") |
09 | BG = game.Lighting.BegginerBricks:clone("BG") |
10 | BG.Parent = game.Workspace |
11 | BG:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(player.Character.Torso.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,100,0)) |
12 | PositionWhenCalled = player.Character.Torso.CFrame |
13 | for i = 100, 0, -.5 do |
14 | BG:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(PositionWhenCalled*CFrame.new(0,i,0)) |
15 | wait() |
16 | end |
17 | end |
18 | end) |

To do this you will need to use SetPrimaryPartCFrame and PrimaryPart.
Recently models have been added a SetPrimaryPartCFrame function.
To explain this to you, I'll need to explain what a PrimaryPart is first.
Probably in maths sometime you have learned about rotation and centers.
This is what happens in ROBLOX, the PrimaryPart is the center of the model, in wich the whole model will go around it.
If the PrimaryPart is in the middle, the whole model will go exactly where you want.
Then, we have SetPrimaryPartCFrame, who selects the PrimaryPart, CFrames it to where you want and everything around it goes in the same direction CFrame you use.
Let's say you have a boat, and a PrimaryPart on the middle.
If you CFrame it an extra 5 Y, everything else would have an extra 5 Y.
If you CFrame it an extra 3 Z and -5 X, everything else would have an extra 3 Z and -5 X.
Therefore, you only need to do :SetPrimaryPartCFrame() !
Hope this works it out for you! If it doesn't please comment how I could improve this answer. ;)
