CFrame.lookAt breaking position

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am trying to create a Zipline, and I want that everything should be automated. What I’m currently doing is Orientating the Player’s character by an attachment’s position. But this kinda breaks the positioning. Here are 2 problems, but removed the CFrame.lookAt() line.

With lookAt()


Without lookAt()

Script 
EndPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function(Player)
	if CharacterValue.Value then return end
	StartPrompt.Enabled = false
	EndPrompt.Enabled = false
	local Character = Player.Character
	CharacterValue.Value = Character
	local Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
	local Animator = Humanoid.Animator
	local HRP = Character.HumanoidRootPart

	local ZipAnim

	local Distance = (Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position - StartZip.NeonCore.Position).Magnitude
	local Time = Distance / 25
	local Diff = 5
	
	local Pos = CFrame.new(StartPrompt.Parent.WorldPosition + Vector3.new(0,Diff,0))
	Pos *= CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(180),0)

	local Tween = TweenService:Create(
		HRP,
		TweenInfo.new(
			Time,
			Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
			Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
			0,
			false,
			0
		),
		{
			CFrame = Pos
		}
	)
	HRP.Anchored = true
	HRP.CFrame = CFrame.new(EndPrompt.Parent.WorldPosition + Vector3.new(0,Diff,0))
	-- the line
	HRP.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(EndZip.NeonCore.Position, StartZip.NeonCore.Position)
	RunService.Stepped:Wait()
	if Humanoid.RigType == Enum.HumanoidRigType.R15 then
		ZipAnim = Animator:LoadAnimation(ReplicatedStorage.Animations.ZipLine.AnimR15)
	elseif Humanoid.RigType == Enum.HumanoidRigType.R6 then
		ZipAnim = Animator:LoadAnimation(ReplicatedStorage.Animations.ZipLine.AnimR6)
	end

	Tween:Play()
	ZipAnim:Play()

	Tween.Completed:Wait()

	ZipAnim:Stop()
	HRP.Anchored = false
	CharacterValue.Value = nil
	StartPrompt.Enabled = true
	if WaysValue.Value == true then
		EndPrompt.Enabled = true
	else
		EndPrompt.Enabled = false
	end
end)

You can clearly guess what I’m doing. How would I fix this issue?

Should use opposite CFrame but not knowing how

Maybe the problem is when you set the LookAt, StartZip.NeonCore.Position is at the middle of the neon, that’s why your animation start from the middle of the NeonCore

basically you set your HRP Cframe in the middle of the Pole, tried to move ur CFrame up a bit

try this

HRP.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(EndZip.NeonCore.Position, StartZip.NeonCore.Position) * CFrame.new(0, 3, 0) --Change the 3 to fit your needs

Thanks! The only issue is that I need to lower that 3 to make it better, but still. I learned something new today!
