How can I get a velocity direction?

[KUW_Alt1 (Kuw)]

I’m trying to make a part face its velocity, like an arrow.
However I get prints like 0, -0.9999999403953552, 0. The part is hovering above the baseplate, and when I click run it falls to the ground. How can I make the part face where it is going (velocity)?

You can do something like

CFrame.lookAt(workspace.Part.Position, workspace.Part.Position + workspace.Part.LinearAssemblyVelocity)

Something like this?

local part = --part

while task.wait() do
	part.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(part.Position, part.Position * part.LinearAssemblyVelocity)
end

If say velocity = Vector3.new(0,0,0) then it will just look towards the world’s origin, so I’m not 100% sure if this would work. I may be wrong though. – edit also Velocity is deprecated, use LinearAssemblyVelocity instead

[Kaid3n22 (Kaiden)]

Ah, my bad. Didn’t know velocity was deprecated. But, if you did velocity = Vector3.new(0,0,0), it should look at the part’s position (not really sure what that would look like tbh)

Good point, no idea either Although, im sure if an arrow stops moving it that means its reached its end.
