How do I change the cframe values to move the object in a different direction?

I am making a helmet that retracts and protracts over a player’s head, as you can see in the clip, it’s partially working so far but I want to move the helmet down after it goes backwards, how do I add another cframe direction to do that?
The script so far:

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local Head = script.Parent
local Helmet = Head.Helmet

local Info = TweenInfo.new(
	0.2,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
	Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
	0,
	false,
	0
)


local Weld = Instance.new("Weld")
Weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0,0)
Weld.C1 = CFrame.new(0,0,1)

Weld.Part0 = Head
Weld.Part1 = Helmet
Weld.Parent = Head

local function CloseHelmet()
	local CloseGoal = {}
	CloseGoal.C1 = CFrame.new(0,0,0)
		local Tween = TweenService:Create(Weld,Info,CloseGoal)
	Tween:Play()
end

local function OpenHelmet()
	local OpenGoal = {}
	OpenGoal.C1 =  CFrame.new(0,0,-1) 
	local Tween = TweenService:Create(Weld,Info,OpenGoal)
	Tween:Play()
end

while true do
	CloseHelmet()
	
	wait(2)
	
	OpenHelmet()
	
	wait(2)
	

	
end

I’ve tried multiplying this line OpenGoal.C1 = CFrame.new(0,0,-1) by another cframe.new but it causes the helmet to just zoom into space.

Could you use two tweens: one to go back and one to go down? And play one after the other.

#3

I can’t use multiple cframes in one tween? If i do a tween for each direction, it’ll be a lot of tweens.

#4

Oh in that case, you should be able to do

OpenGoal.C1 = CFrame.new(0, -1, -1)

Something like that should work.

#5

Tried it already but it’s not achieving the effect i want, doing this will cause the helmet to zoom down diagonally straight away. But I want the helmet to move backwards THEN move down.

#6

Right, there’s no way to do that besides using two tweens.

Wow that’s a huge bummer damn.
