So, I am making a fireball script when a player press F and it works except for the rotation of the fireball, i want the rotation to be facing the same way the player is facing and I don't know what I did wrong here.

Script:

01local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
03CanShoot = true
04In = false
05 
06repeat wait() until plr.Character
07local char = plr.Character
08 
09mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
10    if key == "f" then
11        if CanShoot == true  and In == false then
12            In = true
13            CanShoot = false
14            local part = Instance.new("Part")
15            local fire = Instance.new("Fire",part)
16            local Mesh = Instance.new("SpecialMesh",part)
17            fire.Size = 3.4
18            Mesh.MeshId = "rbxassetid://475201433"
19            Mesh.Scale = Vector3.new(0.1,0.1,0.1)
20            Mesh.TextureId = "rbxassetid://475201512"
21            part.Parent = workspace
22            part.Name = 'FireBall'
23            part.CanCollide = false
24            part.Anchored = true
25            part.Position = plr.Character.Torso.Position
26            local move = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", part)
27            move.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
28            move.Velocity = plr.Character.Torso.CFrame.lookVector*100
29            wait(3)
30            part:Destroy()
31            CanShoot = true
32            In = false
33        end
34    end
35end)

The Problem Is At Line 26 And I Don't Know What I Did Wrong Here.

Please don't use mouse.KeyDown. It is deprectaed. You should use ContextActionService or UserInputService. Plus, connect is depricated, use Connect. Plus, if you remove the second argument of Instance.new, then do the properties, after that, do [instacnename].Parent = [instanceparent] saSlol2436 716 — 7y

Remove Line 26 and replace it with this. [MAKE SURE THE PART IS NOT ANCHORED!]

1local move = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", part)
2move.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
3move.Velocity = plr.Character.Torso.CFrame.lookVector*100

Brief explaination; We will create an object called BodyVelocity. Then we will change the MaxForce (or max power) and changing the Velocity to face the character's direction, defined as plr.Character.Torso.CFrame.lookVector . lookVector is the property of CFrame, AND NO OTHER ELSE!! lookVector just means where an object is looking or where the surface called FrontSurface of a part is facing. You can change the 100 to something else since it tells how fast it is going, and 100 is kinda fast. Hope this helps!

It does not work for me. LuaDLL 253 — 7y

Oh now I see the reason reading it one more time. You need to make sure the part is NOT anchored and CanCollide must be true. Sorry for the late response, I have been. CounterBoy123 53 — 7y
