How do I make a projectile face the same way as the player?
So far i made it so that you can attack with a button1down function but I cant make it so the projectile that is spawned faces the same way as the player without changing the orientation.
01 | player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | repeat wait() until player.Character ~= nil |
03 | local hum = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart |
04 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
05 | local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService") |
06 |
07 | local function attack() |
08 | local direction = hum.CFrame.lookVector * 60 |
09 | local part = game.ReplicatedStorage.Water:Clone() |
10 | part.Parent = workspace |
11 | part.CanCollide = false |
12 | part.Velocity = direction |
13 | part.CFrame = CFrame.new(0,0,0) |
14 | part.Orientation = Vector3.new(-90,0,0) |
15 | part.Position = hum.Position + Vector3.new(0,-.5,0) |

I did manage to change the orientation but when I do that the projectile doesn't shoot from the player. Any suggestions?

I think CFrame Has a lookvector property
EXAMPLE
LocalScript
1 | local Char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character |
2 | local LookVector = Char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector -This is the lookvector |
3 |
4 | [Projectile].CFrame = CFrame.new([Projectile].Position, Vector3.new(LookVector)) |
The wiki is down today soo :/ I'M NOT SURE

Yea I've already used this method, what ends up happening is that part faces the same direction but the orientation changes so the projectile looks akward. Fl3eandFlo3e 18 — 5y

Make it so the orientation doesn't change? Luka_Gaming07 534 — 5y

Im not sure how to make the orientation stay the same, they way i did it it made the part face only one direction while the player faced another way. Fl3eandFlo3e 18 — 5y

Ok it worked! I dont know why it didnt work the last time but now it does, the only problem is once i move the part immediately shifts its orientation. Fl3eandFlo3e 18 — 5y

You can use this piece of code to face one part to another.
1 | PartA.CFrame = CFrame.new(PartA.Position, PartB.Position) |
The second argument of a CFrame is were the CFrame should face, the input is a Vector3 value.

he wants it to face the same way as the player, not to face the player theking48989987 2147 — 5y

This line of code gives me an error "Bad argument #1 to 'new' (Vector3 expected, got CFrame)" Thanks anyways Fl3eandFlo3e 18 — 5y
