Any Alternative operators for Model:PivotTo?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1 
script.Parent:PivotTo(modelCFrame * rotation)

so uh, how do i make the * to like =, cause it causes error, only possibility is * so far,
Plus And Minus causes error and doesn’t work, how do i make pivot so it equals to the value?

:PivotTo() is not a method for models, use :MoveTo() instead.

#3

No, i was suppose make it rotate. not move to. :confused:

#4

Sorry, my bad,
:PivotTo() exists,

Are you sure the rotation and modelCFrame value is a CFrame?

#5

yep, but it makes the zombie in tower defense look yanky and weird, so i have to make it so it EQUALS to, not Multiply cuz it does the opposite direction.

#6

Try making the rotation variable negative? It will probably flip the rotation correctly.

#7

nope, it prints errors and doesn’t work, even plus does the same thing.

#8

May I see the error and the script?

#9

alr wait.

in a moment

#10 
local root = script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart

local path = game.Workspace.Waypoints
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

for i = 1, #path:GetChildren() do
	local node = path:FindFirstChild(i)
	print(node.Name, i)
	script.Parent.MovingTo.Value = node
	local dist = (root.CFrame.Position - node.CFrame.Position).Magnitude
	local speed = script.Parent.Zombie.WalkSpeed
	local Time = dist/speed
	local zombie = script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
	local info = TweenInfo.new(Time, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.In, 0, false, 0)
	script.Parent.MovingValue.Value = (node.Name)
	rotation = CFrame.Angles(node.RotationValue.Value.X, math.rad(node.RotationValue.Value.Y), node.RotationValue.Value.Z)
	rotation2 = CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(1), 0)
	modelCFrame = script.Parent:GetPivot()
	script.Parent.CurrentRotation.Value = node.RotationValue.Value
	if script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Orientation ~= node.RotationValue.Value then
		script.Parent.WorldPivot.Rotation = node.RotationValue.Value
		print('good angle')
		task.wait(0.001)
		print('change angle')
		script.Parent.WorldPivot.Rotation = node.RotationValue.Value
	else
		print('same rotation')
	end
	local tween = TweenService:Create(root, info, {
		CFrame = CFrame.new(node.CFrame.Position.X, root.Position.Y, node.CFrame.Position.Z)  * CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(root.CFrame:ToEulerAnglesXYZ())
	})
	tween:Play()
	tween.Completed:Wait()
end

here is the script, prints error at .print(’‘good angle’’).

Usually you cant change the CFrame property on models,
but here is my way on rotating models:

local function tweenTo(model, cframe)
   local CframeValue = Instance.new("CFrameValue")
   CframeValue.Value = model:GetPivot()

   local tween = TweenService:Create(CframeValue, tweenInfo, {Value = cframe})
   tween:Play()
 
 CframeValue:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
      model:PivotTo(CframeValue.Value)
   end)

   tween.Completed:Connect(function()
      CframeValue:Destroy()
   end)
end

add a lil explaining
seems to be you lost some local variables?
what do i even add in ‘‘Cframe’’
error2

#13

Woops, a mistake, I’ve already edited the post for fixes

#14

are you done editing? it seems that it gave the same result and nothing changed in the code

#15

nvm

was a lil impattient

#16

stillerrors
still has a error bro.

#17

Another mistake, add a ) on the end of the tween2 variable

solving on the phone is hard

#18

Yeah, it works but doesn’t rotate the zombie

#19

Does your zombie have a humanoid?
If so, then:
use humanoid:MoveTo() method.

It will probably make the zonbie rotate and move to that specific point.

You can visit at the wiki for more info.

I used it before, but since MoveTo() is a low priority server function, it will stop when the server connection is interrupted for a milisecond, tween does not do that.
