CFrame.Angles issue

[Wizzthepixelcat (Tifa)]

Hey guys! I’ve encountered an issue. No matter what I try, I can’t make this Axe model spin constantly! The model itself moves with no issue, but it won’t spin at all. It only switches to a random orientation, and it stays that way permanently. I’ve tried everything I know regarding CFrame, but I’m not that smart when it comes to them, so if you know how I can make this work, please let me know. I’ll greatly appreciate it.

Axe:PivotTo(CFrame.new(Axe.PrimaryPart.Position+Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)) * CFrame.fromEulerAngles(0, Axe.PrimaryPart.CFrame.Y - math.rad(2), 0))

Heyo, it looks like you might have made a mistake in your calculations.

Axe:PivotTo(CFrame.new(Axe.PrimaryPart.Position+Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)) * CFrame.fromEulerAngles(0, Axe.PrimaryPart.CFrame.Y - math.rad(2), 0))

When you are calculating the new CFrame for the Angles of your model, you use this snippet:

CFrame.fromEulerAngles(0, Axe.PrimaryPart.CFrame.Y - math.rad(2), 0))

The issue with this is that you base the rotation off of the part’s CFrame on the y-axis. In this case, CFrame.Y only refers to the position of the model, on the Y-axis, which in your case never changes.

Instead you can get the CFrame’s Y-axis rotation by doing the following:

local _,yRot,_ = Axe.PrimaryPart.CFrame:ToEulerAngles()

Which leaves you with the following code:

local _,yRot,_ = Axe.PrimaryPart.CFrame:ToEulerAngles()
Axe:PivotTo(CFrame.new(Axe.PrimaryPart.Position+Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)) * CFrame.fromEulerAngles(0, yRot - math.rad(2), 0))

Hope this helps!

This worked for only a few seconds. It stopped once it hit 90 degrees.

Put this inside of the loop. It works now. But thank you for your time and trying to help me anyway.

Angles -= 1
Axe:PivotTo(CFrame.new(Axe.PrimaryPart.Position+Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)) * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(Angles), 0))
