How do I make the part face the target's direction by only the X-Axis while tweening?
I'm trying to make a part only face the target's direction only by the X-Axis while the part is moving towards the target with tweening. I tried mashing 2 functions together (the tween moving function and direction facing function) but obviously, it didn't work.
Code:
faceTarget = function(target, torso)
if target ~= nil then
local BG = Instance.new("BodyGyro")
BG.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(0, math.huge, 0)
BG.P = 7500 -- // The point of this is to set the speed of how fast the AI turns
BG.Parent = torso
end
end
chaseAfter = function(zombie, torso)
while true do
wait()
local target = findNearestTorso(torso.Position)
if target ~= nil then
local info = TweenInfo.new(math.random(10))
local goal = {}
goal.CFrame = target.CFrame
faceTarget(target, torso)
local tween = tweenService:Create(torso, info, goal)
tween:Play()
end
end
end

Well using CFrame, to face in the direction of an object you would do...
CFrame.new(position, lookAtPosition)
So if you wanted to limit it to only the X-Axis, it would be...
-- Something similar to CFrame.new(position, Vector3.new(target.Position.X, part.CFrame.lookVector.Y, part.CFrame.lookVector.Z)
And you could actually include that in the tween by doing...
...
local goal = {}
goal.CFrame = CFrame.new(target.Position, Vector3.new(target.Position.X, part.CFrame.lookVector.Y, part.CFrame.lookVector.Z)
...

it worked, but the only problem is that the zombies are facing backwards... fusionFSJAL 33 — 5y

What you could do is set the BodyGyro's MaxTorque to: Vector3.new(math.huge, 0, 0), so force is only applied on the x-axis.
Then set the bodyGyro's CFrame to: CFrame.new(torso.Position, target.Position), when you want the zombie AI to face the player
