How to Tween player's camera to required part?

[LLostMMemories (Niko)]

So im trying to change player’s camera orientation to the position of required part inside another object that starts a cutscene.
Method im currently using is just disabling player’s mouse, but i also want to smootly rotate camera to camera part, but i have no clue how because i barely worked with camera scripts.

So green part is a destination point where i want player’s camera to turn at.

Also gonna pin a video for better understanding what im trying to reach.

Any help appreciated!

You mean, you only want to change the rotation of the camera and not the position too…?

Well i just want to drag camera’s look vector to the set target through Tween so it looks smooth.
So basically rotate it.

well, you do it the same way as you tween parts cframe

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local tweenservicc = game:GetService("TweenService")

function lookatpart(part)
local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(1)
local cframetarget = CFrame.lookAt(camera.CFrame.Position, part.Position)

tweenservicc:Create(camera,tweeninfo,{["CFrame"] = cframetarget}):Play()
end

lookatpart(workspace.partypart)

might have some errors since I’m doing this on mobile, but should be an easy fix

The script works wonders, but I need it to work on a specific part inside of specific model because, as you can see in the screenshot above, there are many models with the same names.
Is it possible to do this with the ProxPrompt script through a function calling player?
or should call an event or smth?

you can use RemoteEvent:FireClient() for this

step 1. Create a folder named “Events” on replicatedstorage
step 2. Create a RemoteEvent and name it “CamLookat”, then parent it to the Events folder
step 3. Use this new script

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local tweenservicc = game:GetService("TweenService")
local events = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events
local lookatevent = events.CamLookat

function lookatpart(part)
local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(1)
local cframetarget = CFrame.lookAt(camera.CFrame.Position, part.Position)

tweenservicc:Create(camera,tweeninfo,{["CFrame"] = cframetarget}):Play()
end

lookatevent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Part)
lookatpart(Part)
end)

step 4. to activate the cutscene, use this script

local events = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events
events.CamLookat:FireClient(Player,Part)

--[[ Change the Player to the player that activated the cutscene, like example.. game.Players.ILoveRoblocks and the Part to the CameraPart (the part that you want the player camera to look at!) ]]--

to make it activate using ProximityPrompt, you can do something like this

local Prompt = script.Parent -- assuming the script's parent is a ProximityPrompt 
local Part = Prompt.Parent -- assuming the proximity prompt's parent is a basepart

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(Player)
game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.CamLookat:FireClient(Player,Part)
end)

again, i wrote this on mobile so there might be some issues

Thanks, it works great!
But it seems that i miscalculated stuff and we also need to change cam’s position.

Didn’t want to disturb you anymore, but i have zero knowledge at positioning things so it’d be nice if you also make it so it moves camera to another part intended for its position in same script.
I created another target for cam to move to:

bc without it it looks like that…

I mean you dont have to help anymore if you want
You did the job and im gonna mark your answer as solution anyways.

Camera Script

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local tweenservicc = game:GetService("TweenService")
local events = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events
local lookatevent = events.CamLookat

function lookatpart(part,partstart)

camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(partstart.Position)

task.wait()

local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(1)
local cframetarget = CFrame.lookAt(partstart.Position,part.Position)

tweenservicc:Create(camera,tweeninfo,{["CFrame"] = cframetarget}):Play()
end

lookatevent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Part,StartPart)
lookatpart(Part,StartPart)
end)

Prompt Script

local Prompt = script.Parent -- assuming the script's parent is a ProximityPrompt 
local Part = Prompt.Parent -- assuming the proximity prompt's parent is a basepart
local CameraStartPos = Part.Parent -- which part should the camera position be teleported to

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(Player)
game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.CamLookat:FireClient(Player,Part,CameraStartPos)
end)

this should work, and don’t worry. you’re not bothering me, i have soo much free time currently so i thought I’d help

Thanks a lot!!
Works perfectly, you saved my day man
