How do I make this rotate on key down R?
1 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
2 | if key == "R" then |
3 | NewTurret.Orientation = Vector3.new(X0,Y+90,Z0) |
4 | end |
5 | end) |

Check if FE is on and if it compatible. Seshimazi 0 — 7y

You asked: How do I make this rotate on key down R?
Firstly, we must use the UserInputService which can detect user input via the keyboard.
1 | local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService"); |
2 |
3 | UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, gpe) |
4 | if (not gpe) then |
5 | if (key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R) then |
6 | NewTurret.CFrame = NewTurret.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0); |
7 | end |
8 | end |
9 | end) |
This will rotate the turret 90 degrees on the Y axis. Always use CFrame.Angles() when dealing with rotation. In my example I'm assuming NewTurret is a part, or an object that has a CFrame. If it's a model you could use
1 | local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService"); |
2 |
3 | UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, gpe) |
4 | if (not gpe) then |
5 | if (key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R) then |
6 | NewTurret:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(NewTurret.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90), 0)); |
7 | end |
8 | end |
9 | end) |
Although when using the provided code above you must have the primary part set already on the model. math.rad() takes an argument in degrees and converts it to radians which is what CFrame.Angles() uses.

No, not really. You could use math.pi, or write out the radians yourself. hiimgoodpack 2009 — 7y

Mind explaining to me where I screwed up @hiimgoodpack? I said that CFrame.Angles() takes radian values as an input. math.pi would return a number which is considered a radian, etc. -- I never made a mistake with this post. AstrealDev 728 — 7y

Maybe??
1 | local UIS = game:GetService('UserInputService') |
2 |
3 | UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key,gpe) |
4 | if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R and not gpe then |
5 | local NewTurret = workspace.Part -- Remove this since you already have a variable for it |
6 | NewTurret.Orientation = Vector3.new(X,Y+90,Z) |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
