So I'm making the player face the planet that they are on, but I think the facing part is too literal because they are flat down on their face on the ground. How can I make a different side of them face the ground? The bottom side more specifically.
player.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(player.HumanoidRootPart.Position, planet.Position);
player.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame =
CFrame.new(player.HumanoidRootPart.Position, planet.Position) * CFrame.fromEulerAngles(math.deg(-90),0,0);
offsetting the rotation should help
Multiplying it by an offset seems to be what I need, but for some reason it's giving this error: attempt to call field 'fromEulerAngles' (a nil value)
fromEulerAngles just needed an XYZ at the end of it. But now the player seems to be somewhat upright but it jittering like crazy.
oh yeah i forgot the "XYZ", maybe its that the player is trying to correct itself back to standing upright?
Okay, I finally got it working pretty well. Using a BodyGyro instead of directly setting the player's rotation stops the flickering, and deg should have been rad. player.HumanoidRootPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(player.HumanoidRootPart.Position, planet.Position) * CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(math.rad(90),0,0);
glad you got it working

player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.y
Can you give me the context of how I woud use that? I'm pretty sure Y is actually the one rotation that won't be affected by spherical gravity.
is this whats happening? https://imgur.com/a/8SIOuJt
Sort of, except that I want the player straight up instead of facedown, the models that you posted were facing in weird directions. https://imgur.com/a/9fXciLT
