Why is CFame.Angles not rotating the object the full 90 degrees?
I have a script that is supposed to weld a piece of metal plating to the players arm & it is supposed to rotate it depending on if it is welded to the right, bottom, front & so on.
But when I run the script it doesn't rotate it the full ninety degrees & it rotates it something more like 45 degrees.
Here is the code:
01 | _G.LimbPlatingWeldEnable = function (LR, FB, TB, Rot, Prt0, Prt1) |
02 | if Prt1:FindFirstChild("weld") == nil then |
03 | Prt1.CFrame = Prt0.CFrame * CFrame.new(LR * 0.6, TB * 0.6, FB * -0.6) * CFrame.Angles( LR * 0, FB * 90, TB * 90) |
04 | weld = Instance.new("Weld") |
05 | weld.Part0 = Prt0 |
06 | weld.C0 = Prt0.CFrame:Inverse() |
07 | weld.Part1 = Prt1 |
08 | weld.C1 = Prt1.CFrame:Inverse() |
09 | weld.Parent = Prt1 |
10 | weld.Parent.Anchored = false |
11 | weld.Parent.CanCollide = false |
12 | end |
13 | end |
LR is if the plate is to the left or right, 1 for right, -1 for left. FB is if the plate is to the front or back, 1 for front, -1 for back. TB is if the plate is on top or on the bottom, 1 for top, -1 for bottom. Prt0 is the players lower right arm. Prt1 is the metal plate.

You need to use math.rad when handling angles like that. https://www.robloxdev.com/articles/Lua-Libraries/math#math.rad
So, you would do the following with the function:
01 | _G.LimbPlatingWeldEnable = function (LR, FB, TB, Rot, Prt0, Prt1) |
02 | if Prt1:FindFirstChild("weld") == nil then |
03 | Prt1.CFrame = Prt0.CFrame * CFrame.new(LR * 0.6, TB * 0.6, FB * -0.6) * CFrame.Angles( LR * 0, math.rad(FB * 90), math.rad(TB * 90)) |
04 | weld = Instance.new("Weld") |
05 | weld.Part0 = Prt0 |
06 | weld.C0 = Prt0.CFrame:Inverse() |
07 | weld.Part1 = Prt1 |
08 | weld.C1 = Prt1.CFrame:Inverse() |
09 | weld.Parent = Prt1 |
10 | weld.Parent.Anchored = false |
11 | weld.Parent.CanCollide = false |
12 | end |
13 | end |
Good luck! Accept my answer if it helped you out so I know, and leave me a comment if you don't understand something or still need help.
