How to teleport a player directly in front of another player

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey! :wave:

I’m trying to make my own admin commands, and I’m wondering if I could have assistance making a :to (player username) command that doesn’t teleport them to the exact position of the player, but teleports them just in front of them. Could I have some help with making a few lines of script that teleports you right in front of the player rather than in their exact position? A video is attached below with an example of this. NOTE: I don’t need the whole script with the command and that, I just need the few lines that will get the position of where the player needs to be teleported to based off of the other player’s position. Thanks! :hearts:

This?

PlayerHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame = TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame + TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 5

Can I do this from a LocalScript or ServerScript?

If I’ve made the name of a GUI I’m referencing using a remoteevent the players username that I have to teleport to and doing this won’t work:

game.ReplicatedStorage.LogAnsweredPTS.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, guiName)
   local getplr = game.Players.guiName

How would I get the player?

local getplr = game.Players[guiName]

This works, thanks! But how would I make it so the player who teleported faces the other player? There’s no position property for it so… I’m confused

Here (You can also use CFrame.lookAt)

PlayerHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame = TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame + TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 5
PlayerHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(PlayerHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.Position, Vector3.new(TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.Position.X, PlayerHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.Position.Y, TargetHumanoid.RootPart.CFrame.Position.Z)

player1.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = player2.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, -5)

Above solutions work too.

Do I need to add another ) at the end or will that ruin the whole script? It says I need to.

No worries! However this doesn’t work, it just teleports me to a random place off the map and kills me.

Hey! Thanks, this works, but this doesn’t make the player face the one it teleports to.

local hrp1 -- assume it is defined
local hrp2 -- assume it is defined

hrp1.CFrame = hrp2.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, -5)
hrp1.CFrame = CFrame.new(hrp1.Position, hrp2.Position)

This doesn’t work, it teleports me to a random place still.

local hrp1 = player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	local hrp2 = getplr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	hrp1.CFrame = hrp2.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, -5)
	hrp1.CFrame = CFrame.new(hrp1.Position, hrp2.Position)

Mine should be working but I don’t understand why it didn’t work for you. Try figure it out.:disappointed_relieved:
