My door keeps spinning, and won't stop at the 90 degree angle mark. What's wrong with it?
For some reason, this door doesn't stop rotating at 90 degrees; it just keeps spinning and spinning. I think it has something to do with heartbeat, but what I was trying to do was make the door lerp smoothly using heartbeat, to the 90 degree mark. Here's a GIF of what it looks like:

Here's the script:
local Can = true
local Open = false
script.Parent.Event.OnServerEvent:connect(function(Player)
local Mag = (script.Parent.Center.Position-Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude
if Mag <= script.Parent.Range.Value then
if Can then
Can = false
if Open == false then
game:GetService('RunService').Heartbeat:Connect(function(d)
local finish = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame*CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0)
local cfm = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame:lerp(finish,d*2)
script.Parent:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cfm)
wait()
end)
Open = true
else
Open = false
game:GetService('RunService').Heartbeat:Connect(function(d)
local finish = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame*CFrame.Angles(0,-math.rad(90),0)
local cfm = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame:lerp(finish,d*2)
script.Parent:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cfm)
wait()
end)
end
Can = true
end
end
end)
Can someone tell me what's wrong? I'll fix it; but I just need to know what to fix first.

How long do you want the opening to last? compUcomp 417 — 4y

Lerp stands for Linear intERPolation. CFrame:lerp(new, d) is defined as a new CFrame that is d of the distance between the current CFrame and new. d is usually between 0 and 1 but it can be larger to go past new. Heartbeat event passes the time since the last Heartbeat in seconds. It does not give you the time since you connected your listener to the event. In addition, finish is constantly being recalculated to be 90 degrees ahead of where the door is now. I've fixed all of these problems here.
local debounce = true
local Open = false
script.Parent.Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
local Mag = (script.Parent.Center.Position-Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude
if Mag <= script.Parent.Range.Value then
if debounce then
debounce = false
if Open == false then
local ellapedTime = 0
local finish = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0)
local connection -- this syntax is necessary
connection = game:GetService('RunService').Heartbeat:Connect(function(lastBeat)
ellapsedTime = ellapsedTime + lastBeat
local d = ellapsedTime / TIME_TO_OPEN -- how long you want it to take to open
local cfm = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame:lerp(finish, math.clamp(d, 0, 1))
script.Parent:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cfm)
if d >= 1 then
connection:Disconnect()
end
end)
Open = true

Wow! It's awesome that you fixed my script and everything, but there was one error. In my output, I got this: 18:47:44.198 - Workspace.Doors.Model.DoorMain:16: attempt to perform arithmetic on global 'ellapsedTime' (a nil value) 18:47:44.198 - Stack Begin 18:47:44.199 - Script 'Workspace.Doors.Model.DoorMain', Line 16 iinaoriku 52 — 4y

Nvm I solved the problem, but thanks for your help @compUcomp and @NSMascot iinaoriku 52 — 4y
