CFrame:Lerp() camera is jittery

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey all, when I use this script:

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local car = script.Parent.Car.Value
local p = car.Body.Cam
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera

cam.CameraType = "Scriptable"
cam.FieldOfView = 50

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	local carSpeed = car.DriveSeat.Velocity.Magnitude
	
	local smoothness = 1000 / (carSpeed / 10)
	
	local pos = p.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 1, 5)
	cam.CFrame = cam.CFrame:Lerp(pos, 0.3)
	
	if carSpeed > 100 then
		cam.CFrame = cam.CFrame * CFrame.new(math.random(-1, 1) / smoothness, math.random(-1, 1) / smoothness, math.random(-1, 1) / smoothness)
	end
end)

to make a car camera, the lerping always twitches behind the car. Is there any way to fix this?

#2

Why not just use tween service instead of lerping? Sounds like it’d be a little more simpler.

#3

In this context, TweenService does not achieve what I am looking for.

#4

Can you show a video of the camera glitching?

Also if I had to guess, I would say it has to do with the fact that you are using math.random() at the bottom.

#5

As you can see, while its driving, the car jitters. The math.random() is for the camera shake.
