Hello!

I would like to know how I can put a timeout in the time that the block is to return to where it was.

when the interpolation ends at the indicated position when I activated the option "Reverse" (true) It does not wait for 1 second and returns to the position it was in. How can I make him wait a few seconds and then go back to where he was?

Script:

01local Part1, Part2 = script.Parent.PartA, script.Parent.PartB;
02 
03local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
04 
05    2,
06    Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
07    Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
08    0,
09    true,
10    2
11)
12 
13 
14 
15local a = TweenService:Create(Part1, tweenInfo, {Position = Vector3.new(81, 5, 197)})
16local b = TweenService:Create(Part2, tweenInfo, {Position = Vector3.new(99, 5, 203)})
17 
18while wait()do
19 
20    a:Play()
21    b:Play()
22end

If you want the part to go back after a certain timeout, you will need to split tween to 2 separate tweens:

01local Part1, Part2 = script.Parent.PartA, script.Parent.PartB;
02 
03local tweenTime = 2
04local cooldown = 2
05 
06local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
07 
08    tweenTime,
09    Enum.EasingStyle.Linear
10 
11)
12 
13 
14local aStartingPosition = Part1.Position
15local bStartingPosition = Part2.Position
16local a = TweenService:Create(Part1, tweenInfo, {Position = Vector3.new(81, 5, 197)})
17local aReverse = TweenService:Create(Part1, tweenInfo, {Position = aStartingPosition})
18local b = TweenService:Create(Part2, tweenInfo, {Position = Vector3.new(99, 5, 203)})
19local bReverse = TweenService:Create(Part2, tweenInfo, {Position = bStartingPosition})
20 
21while wait() do
22 
23    a:Play()
24    b:Play()
25 
26    wait(tweenTime + cooldown) 
27 
28    aReverse:Play()
29    bReverse:Play()
30 
31    wait(tweenTime + cooldown)
32 
33end

Just remeber that playing a tween does not yield the thread, so you need to add tween time to cooldown time, before playing reverse tween.
