Humanoid falls through moving block?

Asked 493 views1 answers

So I'm still having trouble this one. Its a timed block that acts like an elevator. Players keep falling through it though and Can Collide is checked. How do I keep them from falling through?

speed = 5000


wait(10)
local startingPos = game.Workspace.Elevator.Position
		local endingPos = game.Workspace.Elevator.Position + Vector3.new(0,30,0)
		local elevator = game.Workspace.Elevator

		for ratio = 0,speed,5 do
			local newPosition = startingPos:lerp(endingPos, ratio/speed)
			elevator.Position = newPosition
			wait()
		end
		
		wait(10)
		
		local startingPos = game.Workspace.Elevator.Position
		local endingPos = game.Workspace.Elevator.Position + Vector3.new(0,-30,0)
		local elevator = game.Workspace.Elevator

		for ratio = 0,speed,5 do
			local newPosition = startingPos:lerp(endingPos, ratio/speed)
			elevator.Position = newPosition
			wait()
		end

Players keep falling through because of the player clipping through the elevator. I suggest you using BodyVelocity to move the elevator and BodyGyro to keep the elevator rotation. It is a much easier way and it works much better Here's an example:

local elevator = script.Parent
speed 
local bodyvel = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", elevator)
bodyvel.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
local bodygyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", elevator)
local startingpos = elevator.Position
local endingpos = elevator.Position + Vector3.new(0, -30, 0)
--Now we make the elevator go up to the ending position
while true do
	wait()
	bodyvel.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, -1, 0) -- you can change the -1 to whatever speed you want
	if elevator.Position == endingpos then
		bodyvel.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
	end
end

Also, please, for the sake of god, don't use game.Workspace when working with these things
