Using CFrame, moving a block slowly to a position?

Asked 592 views1 answers

I'm pretty new to scripting so I know a few things, but not that much. I came up with this script which I'm pretty sure it can be written in a better way but this is what I can do. When I stand on the platform, you have 1 second before it starts moving. However, instead of slowly moving into the position I've set it to, it teleports there. How can I make it so the platform moves slowly to where I set it up to instead of teleporting?

function Touched(hit)
	if hit then
      for i = 1,50 do
	wait(1)
	script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(19.5, 0.5, 219.5)
	wait (5)
end
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(Touched)

I know this isn't realated but you can use body position to make the brick smoothly go to the new position (if the brick isn't anchored)

Your script won't work because you not really increase the block.CFrame value slowly:

for i = 1,50 do
	wait(1)
	script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(19.5, 0.5, 219.5) -- the CFrame instantly increase
	wait(5)
end

The solution is use Tween:

Tweens are used to interpolate the properties of instances. These can be used to create animations for various Roblox objects.

For example:

function touch(hit)
	local goal = {}
	goal.CFrame = CFrame.new(19.5, 0.5, 219.5) -- the final goal to the tween complete
 
	local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(5) -- the time tween need to complete
 
	local tween = TweenService:Create(script.Parent, tweenInfo, goal) -- create tween
 
	tween:Play() -- don forget to play it
end

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(Touched)

Hope it helping you :D
