So, I've got the hang of moving parts using CFrame, but how do I use CFrame to rotate parts? Basically, I have a half-done script where using a while loop, I make a part rotate. Here's the script:
local part = script.Parent
local start = part.CFrame
while wait(0.000001) do
part.CFrame = start + CFrame.Rotation
end
I know I probably did something wrong so far, and I also don't know how to finish it. All help is appreciated!
To rotate parts with CFrame, you have to multiply that part's CFrame by something called CFrame.Angles. For example:
local part = game.Workspace.Part
part.CFrame = part.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,1,0)
The part's CFrame will be rotated by 1 radian on the y-axis. It's complicated at first, but you get the hang of it. For more information on CFrame, read this: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=CFrame
If you want to repeat this forever, use a while loop.
while true do
part.CFrame = part.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,1,0)
end
And it seems like you want to wait 0.000001 seconds, which is pretty much just wait(), but in this example, I'll use 1.
while true do
part.CFrame = part.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,1,0)
wait(1)
end
I hope this helped.
