Make a door rotate backwards w/ CFrame?

Asked by 4 years ago

I was following a tutorial regarding door rotation but also wanted to know how to make it rotate back into place once moved.

local hinge = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Hinge")
local door = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Door")

local HINGEPOS = hinge.Position

for i = 1, 15 do
    wait()
    door.CFrame = CFrame.new(HINGEPOS) * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(i*6), 0) * CFrame.new(0, 0, 2.25)    
end
wait(1)
for i = 1, 15 do
    wait()
    door.CFrame = CFrame.new(HINGEPOS) * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(i*-6), 0) * CFrame.new(0, 0, 2.25)   
end

I couldn't find comments on the video asking nor any mention of it in the video itself.

do the same thing but make the angle negative

local hinge = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Hinge")
local door = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Door")

local HINGEPOS = hinge.Position

for i = 1, 15 do
    wait()
    door.CFrame = CFrame.new(HINGEPOS) --puts door at the hinge's position 
                * CFrame.Angles(0, -math.rad(i*6), 0)  --rotates door
                * CFrame.new(0, 0, 2.25)  --shifts door forward 
end

This works but how would I go about turning it to its original position? Utter_Incompetence 856 — 4y

In the loop above you moved the door backwards by rotating the door with negative angles. To go back to where you were before, do the same for loop with a positive angle like in your original post. royaltoe 5144 — 4y

So same way you did it in the original post. royaltoe 5144 — 4y
