Cutscene Script

I have a script on the client that triggers a cutscene, I need the cutscene to trigger after a TextButton is clicked. How can I do this?


local camera = game.Workspace.Camera

function tween (part1,part2,cutsceneTime)
	
	local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
		cutsceneTime,
		Enum.EasingStyle.Sine,
		Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
		0,
		false,
		0
	)
	
	camera.CameraType =  Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	camera.CFrame = part1.CFrame
	
	local tween = TweenService:Create(camera, tweenInfo, {CFrame = part2.CFrame})
	tween:Play()
	
	wait(cutsceneTime)
	
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
end



wait(2)


tween(game.Workspace.Test1,game.Workspace.Test2,5)
tween(game.Workspace.Test2,game.Workspace.Test3,2)
tween(game.Workspace.Test3,game.Workspace.Test4,2)```

Very simple. Connect the button.MouseButton1Click event to your tween() function.

Code example:

local button = -- Your TextButton
button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    tween(part1, part2, cutsceneTime)
end)

If this works for you, please list this as the solution so others can easily find it as well. Thanks!

okay wait, would this script go in the cutscene script? or the button?

Where is your cutscene script? I assumed it was parented to the TextButton.
If not, move your cutscene script so it’s parent is the TextButton. Here is the finished script:

local camera = game.Workspace.Camera
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
local button = script.Parent

function tween(part1,part2,cutsceneTime)
	local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
		cutsceneTime,
		Enum.EasingStyle.Sine,
		Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
		0,
		false,
		0
	)
	
	camera.CameraType =  Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	camera.CFrame = part1.CFrame
	local tween = TweenService:Create(camera, tweenInfo, {CFrame = part2.CFrame})
	tween:Play()
	wait(cutsceneTime)
end

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    tween(part1, part2, cutsceneTime)
end)

Please excuse if there are some syntax errors, I am not in Studio at this time.

Why MouseButton1Click? Activated works as well, and I think allows for more platforms to use the button. I might be wrong, though.

I use MouseButton1Click in all my scripts. It works on all platforms.
