Why is this flkashing back and forth?

as you can see it went back and forth, i tried while true do and game.heartbeat, both did the same thing, any idea why?

while true do
wait()
		if (circle.Position - plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude < 50 then
			if grabbed == true then
				circle.Position = mouse.Hit.Position
			else
				circle.Position = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
		end
	else
		circle.CFrame = plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-2,3)
		
	end
	

end

it could be that grabbed is set to after an input is finished, causing the circle to revert back to Origin, and then the else statement triggers, causing it to be placed behind the character. Try implementing a print statement to find where you went wrong. If possible, you can also get rid of the statement setting the circle to appear behind you.

EDIT: Reread your code. As the circle gets placed 50 studs away from you, the circle gets teleported to vector3.zero. After that, the else statement is still triggered by the first paramater of the “If” statement being false (it’s no longer inside 50 studs.) This cycle exists because the circle’s new position is now inside the 50 stud radius, causing it to move back to your mouse. Break that cycle and you’re good :+1:

how would i do that :melting_face: i need both of em to function

#4 
local far = false
while true do
wait()
		if (circle.Position - plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude < 50 and not far then
			if grabbed == true then
				circle.Position = mouse.Hit.Position
                circle.Transparency = 0
			else
			—-I assume you wanted to make the cursor not be visible, so
            circle.Transparency = 1
            wait(2)
            far = false
	else if not far then
		circle.CFrame = plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-2,3)
        far = true
	end	
	end
	

end

You can create a denounce to prevent the function from alternating between these loops, but it’s basically a cycle of being moved far away and then close, you should pay attention to that in the future. Also, I wrote this on an iPad and have no way of formatting or checking the code, so sorry if there is syntax or issues like that. Lmk if you need more help,

new soloution: i used mouse.hit.p instead :melting_face:
