Keeping an objects rotation when moving it with CFrame?

Hello,

As from my last post, I have been able to make a script that allows the door that I'm working on to move up and down from the click of a button. The only issue I have now is that upon pressing the button, the door will rotate 90 degrees, making it look weird and out of place.

I've also had a lot of issues with this in the past, yet just scrap the idea as I can never figure out a way to fix this.

01local LeftDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.LeftOfficeDoor
02local RightDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.RightOfficeDoor
03local Sound = script.Parent.Sound
04local debounce = false
05local door = false
06local Rotation = LeftDoor.CFrame - LeftDoor.Position
07 
08script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
09    if not debounce then debounce = true
10    if not door then door = true
11            Sound.Playing = false
12            Sound.Playing = true
13        for i = 1,14 do
14            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position + Vector3.new(0,1,0))
15            wait()
16        end
17               debounce = false
18    else if door then door = false
19            Sound.Playing = false
20            Sound.Playing = true
21            for i = 1,14 do
22            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position - Vector3.new(0,1,0))
23            wait()
24end
25      debounce = false
26    end
27  end
28end
29end)

The door works perfectly fine, its just the rotation. I have seen many forms about this, yet the explaining on them is very little and I have no idea where to place them into my script.

If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Try this (may not be the best solution)

01local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
02local LeftDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.LeftOfficeDoor
03local RightDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.RightOfficeDoor
04local Sound = script.Parent.Sound
05local debounce = false
06local door = false
07local Rotation = LeftDoor.CFrame - LeftDoor.Position
08 
09RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
10    LeftDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,0,0)-- Put the original Orientation of the door in the brackets
11    RightDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,0,0)-- Put the original Orientation of the door in the brackets
12end)
13 
14script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
15    if not debounce then debounce = true
16    if not door then door = true
17            Sound.Playing = false
18            Sound.Playing = true
19        for i = 1,14 do
20            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position + Vector3.new(0,1,0))
21            wait()
22        end
23               debounce = false
24    else if door then door = false
25            Sound.Playing = false
26            Sound.Playing = true
27            for i = 1,14 do
28            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position - Vector3.new(0,1,0))
29            wait()
30end
31      debounce = false
32    end
33  end
34end
35end)

Aha, didn't really expect it to be this easy. I fixed it by changing the orientation in the script each time.

01local LeftDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.LeftOfficeDoor
02local RightDoor = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.RightOfficeDoor
03local Sound = script.Parent.Sound
04local debounce = false
05local door = false
06local Rotation = LeftDoor.CFrame - LeftDoor.Position
07 
08script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
09    if not debounce then debounce = true
10    if not door then door = true
11            Sound.Playing = false
12            Sound.Playing = true
13        for i = 1,14 do
14            LeftDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, -90, 0)
15            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position + Vector3.new(0,1,0))
16            LeftDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, -90, 0)
17            wait()
18        end
19               debounce = false
20    else if door then door = false
21            Sound.Playing = false
22            Sound.Playing = true
23            for i = 1,14 do
24            LeftDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, -90, 0)
25            LeftDoor.CFrame = CFrame.new(LeftDoor.Position - Vector3.new(0,1,0))
26            LeftDoor.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, -90, 0) 
27            wait()
28end
29            debounce = false
30    end
31  end
32end
