How to use mouse.hit.LookVector as a CFrame? (for a stone attack)

Asked by

5 years ago

Hi, I'm scripting a stone attack for my magic ffa game, I'm good at this sorta thing but you could search the entire planet and still not find a scripter my level who's as awful at CFrame as me.

So, I was wondering. How would I turn a vector3 into a CFrame?

Here's a server script that handles the attack thing:

01script.Parent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player, mouse)
02    if game.Players[player.Name].Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("AimerGyro") then
03        print("aiming")
04        local gryo = game.Players[player.Name].Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("AimerGyro")
05        gryo.CFrame = mouse
06    else
07        print("making")
08        local g = Instance.new("BodyGyro")
09        g.Name = "AimerGyro"
10        g.Parent = game.Players[player.Name].Character.HumanoidRootPart
11    end
12end)

To clarify, that mouse variable is mouse.hit sent over from the client.

And here is that client script:

01local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
02local equipped = false
03local attacking = false
04local debounce = false
05local debounce2 = false
06local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
07 
08script.Parent.Equipped:connect(function()
09    equipped = true
10end)
11 
12script.Parent.Unequipped:connect(function()
13    equipped = false
14end)
15 
16uis.InputBegan:connect(function(input, gp)
17    if gp then
18        return
19    else
20        if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q and not attacking and not debounce then
21            attacking = true
22            debounce = true
23 
24            while attacking do
25                if attacking then
26                    script.Parent.StoneQ:FireServer(mouse.hit)
27                else
28                    break
29                end
30                wait(0.1)
31            end
32            -- charge
33            print("charging")
34            wait(4)
35            debounce = false
36        end
37    end
38end)
39 
40uis.InputEnded:connect(function(input, gp)
41    if gp then
42        return
43    else
44        if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q and attacking and not debounce2 then
45            attacking = false
46            debounce2 = true
47 
48            -- release
49            print("released")
50            wait(4)
51            debounce2 = false
52        end
53    end
54end)
