How to make CFrame relative to world space?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

If you have a rotated object and you do
object.CFrame *= CFrame.new(0,-1,0)

It’s gonna move the object down relative to the object.

How would I move the object with CFrame relative to the world? I want to have the same result as if I used object.Position += Vector3.new(0,-1,0)

I did try the CFrame methods, but wasn’t successful in that

If you add a Vector to a CFrame that is in world space (A Part’s CFrame is in world space), it will offset that CFrame in world space as well.
cf += Vector3.new(0, -1, 0)

Convert the desired world-space transformation to the object’s space. E.g.

local worldSpaceTransform = CFrame.new(0, -1, 0)
local objectSpaceTransform = object.CFrame:ToObjectSpace(worldSpaceTransform)
object.CFrame *= objectSpaceTransform

This did work but it messed with the orientation/rotation. Maybe because I’m using it on a weld.C0

You’ll need to alter the CFrame and then reconstruct the weld afterwards with the brand new C0.
