Help With :MoveTo()

[PieFaceChamp_2 (Pie_exe)]

Hello DevFourm, I’m trying to make a simple LocalScript that moves the player when a ClickDetector is clicked. But for some reason, it won’t move the player. (No error in output)

Heres the script:

local MoveInto = script.Parent.MoveTo
local Click = script.Parent.ClickDetector

Click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:MoveTo(MoveInto.Position)
end)

Am I missing something?

Thank you

Where is this script located? You might also want to make sure the player that clicked is the LocalPlayer.

The script is located inside a part with a clickdetector.

I don’t think you can use MoveTo with a local script. I might be wrong though

The :MoveTo() function can only be called on a humanoid, so do this:

local MoveInto = script.Parent.MoveTo
local Click = script.Parent.ClickDetector

Click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):MoveTo(MoveInto.Position)
end)

Also if you are trying to teleport the player, just move the actual character.

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:PivotTo(CFrame.new(MoveInto.Position))

Just to be sure it isn’t a Script with a RunContext of client?

A LocalScript can only run in these places:

• StarterGui
• StarterPlayerScripts
• StarterCharacterScripts
• ReplicatedFirst
• StarterPack

Make sure it is in one of these places, it sounds like it isn’t right now. Or, just use:

• A normal Script
• A Script with the RunContext set to Client
  
  
  
  
  

@NoHaxJustCanPick

The :MoveTo() function can only be called on a humanoid

This isn’t quite right, the character also has a method called MoveTo. It doesn’t walk the character to the position, but it moves the PrimaryPart - so it teleports you, a bit like :PivotTo and setting the HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.

@PieFaceChamp_2 your problem is that, its a local script you need just a normal script isnide of the part along the aside the click detection as well this works perfectly fine.

local Part = script.Parent.Parent.Part

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
	player.Character:MoveTo(Part.Position)
end)
