CFrame Operation is Adjusting the Wrong Axis

[Aensvey]

I’m performing a simple CFrame operation on the Camera to rotate it 90° to the right whenever the “E” key is pressed but I’m having unexpected results. The Camera rotates on the correct axis (Y) but it also seems to be rotating on the (X) & (Z) axes as well, which is not wanted.

-- Right Rotation
elseif action == "RightRotate" and state == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then

		-- Tween
		TS:Create(PlayerCamera,
			TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, Enum.EasingDirection.Out), 
			{CFrame = PlayerCamera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0)}
		):Play()

The Camera BEFORE pressing “E”/Rotating:

The Camera AFTER pressing “E”/Rotating:

		):Play()
		
	-- Moving
	elseif state == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
		print("MOVE")
		Moving = action
		
		if action == "Forwards" then
			while action == Moving do
				PlayerCamera.CFrame = getAdjustedCFrame() * CFrame.new(0,1,0)
				task.wait()
			end
		
		elseif action == "Backwards" then
			while action == Moving do
				PlayerCamera.CFrame = getAdjustedCFrame() * CFrame.new(0,-1,0)

				PlayerCamera.CFrame = getAdjustedCFrame() * CFrame.new(1,0,0)
				task.wait()
			end
		end
	else
		if Moving == action then
			Moving = nil
		end
		-- LAST input here if u feel like adding that
	end
end

-- Bind Movment
CAS:BindAction("Forwards", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.W)
CAS:BindAction("Backwards", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.S)
CAS:BindAction("Left", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.A)
CAS:BindAction("Right", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.D)
CAS:BindAction("Zoom", handleMovement, false, Enum.UserInputType.MouseWheel)
CAS:BindAction("LeftRotate", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.Q)
CAS:BindAction("RightRotate", handleMovement, false, Enum.KeyCode.E)

I have verified through print statements that no other code is running or interfering with the rotation mechanics.

Your current code rotates the camera around its own y-axis. If you are trying to rotate the camera around the global y-axis then you need to calculate the tween goal this way:

{CFrame = CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0) * PlayerCamera.CFrame.Rotation + PlayerCamera.CFrame.Position}

Appreciated, thank you for the information.
