I want to create keycard border gate with smooth open animations just like in Military Simulator, but I don’t know how to use tween service and I need help for this so please reply to me soon.

I usually use my own Tween function to make it easier to remember:

local T = game:GetService('TweenService')
function tween(o,t,l,s,d)
	s = s or Enum.EasingStyle.Linear
	d = d or Enum.EasingDirection.InOut
	local i = TweenInfo.new(l,s,d)
	return T:Create(o,i,t)
end

All you’d have to do is:

tween(workspace.Part,{CFrame=workspace.Part.CFrame*CFrame.new(workspace.Part.Size.X)},1):Play()

In short:

tween(instance,{propertyName=value},time)

You can tween multiple properties at once just by adding something else to the array:

{Position=somePosition,Size=someSize}

You can also use an easing style and direction, but the defaults are linear.

Also, adding on to @MightyDantheman’s reply, don’t do this on the server or it’ll look choppy in a lot of scenarios.

Fairly seen as common sense, but it’s sometimes worth the note.
