Lately, I have made a simple vehicle with lights, and I am trying to add reverse lights to it, but I only would like them to activate when the VehicleSeat is moving backwards (relative to Back face). I believe this might use CFrame, but I currently have no idea how to do this.
Here's the script for the motors and lights I currently have. I just need to know how to detect if the seat is moving backwards on its local Z-axis, so I can combine that with the Throttle detection.
seat = script.Parent wheels = script.Parent.Parent frontleft = wheels.FrontLeft.Motor frontright = wheels.FrontRight.Motor rearleft = wheels.RearLeft.Motor rearright = wheels.RearRight.Motor left = wheels.LeftSteer.Steer right = wheels.RightSteer.Steer body = wheels.Parent.Body while true do wait() if seat.Throttle > 0 then frontleft.AngularVelocity = 60 frontright.AngularVelocity = -60 rearleft.AngularVelocity = 60 rearright.AngularVelocity = -60 body.BrakeL.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic body.BrakeM.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic body.BrakeR.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic body.BrakeL.PointLight.Enabled = false body.BrakeM.PointLight.Enabled = false body.BrakeR.PointLight.Enabled = false end if seat.Throttle == 0 then frontleft.AngularVelocity = 0 frontright.AngularVelocity = 0 rearleft.AngularVelocity = 0 rearright.AngularVelocity = 0 end if seat.Throttle < 0 then frontleft.AngularVelocity = -60 frontright.AngularVelocity = 60 rearleft.AngularVelocity = -60 rearright.AngularVelocity = 60 body.BrakeL.Material = Enum.Material.Neon body.BrakeM.Material = Enum.Material.Neon body.BrakeR.Material = Enum.Material.Neon body.BrakeL.PointLight.Enabled = true body.BrakeM.PointLight.Enabled = true body.BrakeR.PointLight.Enabled = true end if seat.Steer > 0 then left.TargetAngle = 30 right.TargetAngle = 30 left.AngularSpeed = 5 right.AngularSpeed = 5 end if seat.Steer == 0 then left.TargetAngle = 0 right.TargetAngle = 0 left.AngularSpeed = 5 right.AngularSpeed = 5 end if seat.Steer < 0 then left.TargetAngle = -30 right.TargetAngle = -30 left.AngularSpeed = 5 right.AngularSpeed = 5 end end
Also just an off-topic note, IDK if this is happening on your computers too or just mine, but the advertisement for "Community Chat" is blocking out buttons, disallowing me to post questions, or write them (had to use Ctrl-MouseWheel to access "Ask Question" button)
