Best way to make a leaning system

[peepo12343]

Hello, I want to make a system where i press E or Q and then the character leans to either the left or the right. I have the character in first person and i also want the camera to tilt to the right side as well. What would be the best way of doing this?

You could make animations tilting the torso and head for left and right respectively, and then play those animations depending on which key they’re pressing. This is for other people to see them tilt. For the player themselves, you can CFrame.Angles the Camera with tweenservice to make it look nice. Just ask if you need some code examples

Yeah, It would be good to see some examples for the first person camera. I know how to make an animation but I’m not sure how to apply it.

Alright, I’ve never done this before, so it was just a quick thought of how I would approach this.
I quickly made this and keep in mind, this does not work how you want it to work, but it’s a start. Look at the GIF to see how it works

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local Tilting = false
local TweeningInformation = TweenInfo.new(
	
.3, -- Length
Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
Enum.EasingDirection.In,
0, -- Number of times the tween will repeat	
false, -- Should the tween repeat?
0 -- Delay between each tween	
)

local BeganBinds = {
	Q = function(object)
		--local TiltRight = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)
		--TiltRight:Play()
		if not Tilting then
			Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
			Tilting = true
			local Goal = {CFrame = Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,0,-25)}
			local Tween = TweenService:Create(Camera, TweeningInformation, Goal)
			Tween:Play()
		end
	end;
	E = function(object) 
		--local TiltRight = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)
		--TiltRight:Play()
		if not Tilting then
			Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
			Tilting = true
			local Goal = {CFrame = Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,0,25)}
			local Tween = TweenService:Create(Camera, TweeningInformation, Goal)
			Tween:Play()
		end
	end;
}

EndedBinds ={
	Q = function(object)
		--Stop Animation here
		local Goal = {CFrame = Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,0,25)}
		local Tween = TweenService:Create(Camera, TweeningInformation, Goal)
		Tween:Play()
		Tween.Completed:Wait()
		Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
		Tilting = false
	end;
	E = function(object) 
		--Stop Animation here
		local Goal = {CFrame = Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,0,-25)}
		local Tween = TweenService:Create(Camera, TweeningInformation, Goal)
		Tween:Play()
		Tween.Completed:Wait()
		Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
		Tilting = false
	end;
}

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(object, processed)
	if not processed then
		if BeganBinds[object.KeyCode.Name] then
			BeganBinds[object.KeyCode.Name](object)
		end
	end
end)

UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(object, processed)
	if not processed then
		if EndedBinds[object.KeyCode.Name] then
			EndedBinds[object.KeyCode.Name](object)
		end
	end
end)

This is not the best way to do it, it’s buggy and it doesn’t work in first person. You would have to play the tilting animation, CFrame the Camera to the Character.Head.CFrame + the camera angle offset you want to simulate the tilt in a renderstepped loop. I hope this will help you get started
