How would i make a player... fly? to a location?

I already asked this in a old post but that wasn’t the main focus of the post. and i’ve done everything else thanks to people here and my own work. but i have no idea how to do this since i’ve been suggested so many things.

I am making a “Homing attack” system similar to the one in the sonic franchise which consists of sonic jumping, homing onto something then being sent to it before jumping up again to chain it if possible.

how would i go around doing the “Being sent to it” part (send a player to a position smoothly (no teleportation) while in mid-air)?

(if you don’t know what i mean, here’s a wiki page on the entire system Homing Attack | Sonic News Network | Fandom)

note: I’m asking for hints / suggestions on how this can be done, not scripts

You can tween their HumanoidRootPart using TweenService.

Make sure to anchor the humanoid root part and unanchor when the tween finishes

doing this does move the rootpart, but not the character itself

Though, instead of SetPrimaryPartCFrame, use PVInstance | Roblox Creator Documentation.

is pivot to a transition to the target location or is it teleporting players to the position?

No, it will teleport the player.
But, it will only teleport them when the CFrameValue changes, which might be a smooth transition.

Just something I found though, test it out.

a question that may be slightly off-topic, but is the primarypart of a character meant to be it’s head? i thought it was the HRP…

Which in this case, is the HumanoidRootPart.
