I have never used CFrame, and I have tried multiple ways of doing this and I just can not figure it out, here is what I have
local model = game.workspace.smallStatue
function rotateMod()
for i=1,360 do
model.CFrame = model.CFrame * CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0,0,0)
end
end
rotateMod()
Sorry, I'm completely clueless. Thanks.
##What you need
You're on the right track, but there are a few issues.
CFrame property, so you're going to have to take advantage of the GetPrimaryPartCFrame and SetPrimaryPartCFrame functions. These functions get and set the CFrame of the model according to the model's PrimaryPart location. Note: you will have to set the PrimaryPart property prior to using either of these functionsCFrame.Angles constructor. Remember to put in radians as arguments aswell, using the math.rad function.wait in it, otherwise this will happen instantaneously.##Code
local model = workspace.smallStatue
function rotateMod()
model.PrimaryPart = model:GetChildren()[1] --Set the PrimaryPart
for i = 1,360 do
local cf = model:GetPrimaryPartCFrame() --Get the current CFrame
--Set the CFrame relative to current cf, rotated by 1 radian
model:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cf * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(1),0,0))
wait() --yield
end
end
rotateMod()
Okay, thank you so much I just could not figure it out, now I know for the future :)
How would I adjust the speed of its rotation?
No problem :D Glad I could help. If you want to adjust the speed you can either increase the increment it rotates on each iteration, or decrease the yield in between iterations
So the first option would be increasing the '1' on line 8 to something bigger
Second option would be using game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Wait() from a LocalScript as the yield, to replace line 9. First option is preferable unless you plan on keeping the model on the client, or in the camera.
You can use "RunService.Heartbeat" too; think of it as the RenderStepped version for the Workspace. ;)

Use primary part
Could you expand please?
I tried it and it is just spinning the head of the statue..
