Hello,

I need to make a loop so that a part follows you by using a loop but only for a couple of seconds. Does anyone know how to make a loop that only runs for a few seconds?

Couldn’t you use tween instead

Tweening would be the amount of time it takes before it arrives to the player. Unless there’s a way I don’t know about.

You can do:

local Timer = 5
local WaitTime = 0.25

while Timer > 0 do
   wait(WaitTime)
   Timer -= WaitTime
end

I found an exact way of doing it right after you posted it, which is this;

function Follow(v)
    local Player = v[1];
    local Time = v[2];
    
    for i = 0, Time*10 do
        wait(0.01);
        Part.CFrame = game:GetService("Players"):FindFirstChild(Player).Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame;
    end;
end;

Follow({"Player1", 3})
