Why does this Part infinitely move on it's X axis?
I'm trying to create a sliding glass door that activates when a player touches an invisible part near the door. While the script is having no problem detecting the player, it continues moving the door without halting. The script located in the transparent detector part:
I should note that the initial position is (-4.54, 8.27, -24.21), which is why I'm having it wait four seconds then move back to that position.
debounce = false
detector = script.Parent
ldoor = detector.Parent.leftDoor
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if debounce == false then
debounce = true
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
while ldoor.CFrame ~= Vector3.new(-10.54, 8.27, -24.21) do
wait()
ldoor.CFrame = ldoor.CFrame - Vector3.new(.1,0,0)
end
wait(4)
while ldoor.CFrame ~= Vector3.new(-4.54, 8.27, -24.21) do
wait()
ldoor.CFrame = ldoor.CFrame + Vector3.new(.1,0,0)
end
end
end
debounce = false
end)
Thank you for any and all help!

In my opinion it is better to have your code for moving the door like this
debounce = false;
detector = script.Parent;
ldoor = detector.Parent.leftDoor;
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if debounce == false then
debounce = true;
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
for i = ldoor.CFrame.X, -10.54, -0.1 do
ldoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(i, ldoor.CFrame.Y, ldoor.CFrame.Z);
wait();
end;
--while ldoor.CFrame ~= Vector3.new(-10.54, 8.27, -24.21) do
--wait();
--ldoor.CFrame = ldoor.CFrame - Vector3.new(.1,0,0);
--end;
wait(4);
for i = ldoor.CFrame.X, -4.54, 0.1 do
ldoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(i, ldoor.CFrame.Y, ldoor.CFrame.Z);
wait();
end;
--while ldoor.CFrame ~= Vector3.new(-4.54, 8.27, -24.21) do
--wait();
--ldoor.CFrame = ldoor.CFrame + Vector3.new(.1,0,0);
--end;
end;
end;
debounce = false;
end);
This way it will move from the point to the new point and will stop when it reaches the point instead of continuing on. I hope this helped and works. If it doesn't please message me back so I can try to help and solve this. If it did work, please accept this as the answer so that others know you have been helped. Again, if it doesn't work, message me or comment and I will work with you until we do get it working. If you have any other non-related questions feel free to ask.
