Best way to check if the player is moving & what direction they are moving?

@hpgames16

is there any way to convert it into local space though?

I’m sorry I don’t quite understand your question.

To anyone who stumbles on this and want’s it in local space as well, its:

local movementDirection = WorldMovingDirection(RootPart.CFrame:VectorToObjectSpace(MoveDirection))

Huge thanks to PremiumJay for that function

How to get what direction player are walking

or you can use require(player.PlayerScripts.PlayerModule.ControlModule):GetMoveVector() it works on all devices in pc it gives like (1,0,0) in other devices gives like (0.7, 0, 0.3) you can check it like if x>0 then -- going right elseif x<0 then -- going left else --not going in this direction end (my english is bad sorry)

you can use this instead of calculation functions if that helps your problem

I have one question though, Does it return a rotation in angles so for example, If I was moving right, would it return a value like (-90, 0, 0) or something?

It returns a Vector3 (directional unit vector) on the XZ (flat) plane that describes which direction the player is moving in. If you’re using the code snippet I sent, it snaps to 90 degree increments. So it will return one of these:

• A vector pointing north in world space
• A vector pointing south in world space
• A vector pointing east in world space
• A vector pointing west in world space
