[FLYING SCRIPT] Player Collision Causes Relative Camera Position Change

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

The movement script currently allows sprinting, flying, and boosting while flying. The camera remains locked to the player from behind with a small delay through lerping when rotating in any direction. This script is part of my Invincible inspired game where you are a viltrumite.

The issue is when the player collides with a part, often times the camera will move to the side or up or down, creating a relative offset, ruining the flying script. This will create passive movements, spinning, etc.

I have tried many solutions such as different methods of controlling the characters rotation, but nothing works.

Here is the part of my Movement.lua that controls the player rotation and movement, thanks ahead of time!

local camCF = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame
local lookVector = camCF.LookVector
local rightVector = camCF.RightVector
local upVector = camCF.UpVector

if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) or joystickY > 0) then
	moveDirection += lookVector
end
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.S) or joystickY < 0) and not boosting then
	moveDirection -= lookVector
elseif (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.S) or joystickY < 0) then
	boosting = false
	currentSpeed = boosting and boostSpeed or normalSpeed
end
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) or joystickX < 0) then
	moveDirection -= rightVector
end
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) or joystickX > 0) then
	moveDirection += rightVector
end
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.Space) or buttonA) and not boosting then
	moveDirection += upVector
end
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.LeftControl) or buttonB) and not boosting then
	moveDirection -= upVector
end

if moveDirection.Magnitude > 0 and (joystickMagnitude ~= 0 or controllerMagnitude ~= 0) then
	targetVelocity = moveDirection.Unit * currentSpeed * math.clamp(joystickMagnitude + controllerMagnitude, -1, 1) * speedMultiplier
elseif moveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then
	targetVelocity = moveDirection.Unit * currentSpeed * speedMultiplier
else
	targetVelocity = Vector3.zero
	boosting = false
	currentSpeed = boosting and boostSpeed or normalSpeed
end
	
currentVelocity = currentVelocity:Lerp(targetVelocity, smoothing)
bodyVelocity.Velocity = currentVelocity
local camLookDirection = camCF.LookVector.Unit
local camUpDirection = camCF.UpVector.Unit
local rightDirection = camLookDirection:Cross(camUpDirection).Unit
camUpDirection = rightDirection:Cross(camLookDirection).Unit
local targetRotation = CFrame.fromMatrix(Vector3.zero, rightDirection, camUpDirection)
local currentPos = humanoidRootPart.Position
local targetCFrame = CFrame.new(currentPos) * targetRotation
local playerLook = humanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector
local camLook = camCF.LookVector
local playerYaw = math.atan2(playerLook.X, playerLook.Z)
local camYaw = math.atan2(camLook.X, camLook.Z)
local yawDifference = math.deg(playerYaw - camYaw)
yawDifference = ((yawDifference + 180) % 360 - 180)
local newCFrame = humanoidRootPart.CFrame:Lerp(targetCFrame, 0.2)
if flying and boosting then
	local clampedYaw = math.clamp(yawDifference, -5, 5)
	local rollAngle = math.rad(clampedYaw)
	local rollCFrame = CFrame.Angles(0, 0, -rollAngle)
	newCFrame = newCFrame * rollCFrame
end
humanoidRootPart.CFrame = newCFrame

this might not work but try setting the camera subject to the head

Sadly this did not work, but I was able to achieve a solution through dynamic collision group control and a landing function.

Cheers for the help!
