Is it possible to create this conveyor belt but with the arrows perfectly lining up?

Greetings,

I wanted to create a conveyor belt animation that goes around perfectly, what you see in the video is the product of 4 beams, as you can see they don’t line up perfectly and that’s a problem. If anyone has any ideas, using something else or anything really that might help i would greatly appreciate it, i just wish beams accepted more than 2 attachment points, this would be so easy with 3,4 attachment points on each beam

Thanks for your time

You could make a wait thing so when its perfect it plays

these are beams though? How would i implement the wait? or are you suggesting i use something other than beams?

Like WarnFromPlayer was alluding to, make a script that disables the beam (using the enabled property) for as long as it takes to line up the arrows, then re-enables it.

though i appreciate the help, i find that method to be highly unreliable and prone to misalignment

This is two parts, each part has two attachments and one beam. I didn’t add the end rollers but helps you get an idea.

thank you, can you please tell me how you aligned the 2 beams so perfectly?

Honestly i just did it quickly by sight…

I duplicated the part and rotated it backward and upside down, then just moved it over a few studs.

Normally i would use the align orientation tool but this wont work for the beams once you flip them over.

If you still want I can record a quick video of me doing it… let me know.
