Also… make your hit box taller, so that it will detect the player’s HumanoidRootPart

The script you sent me didn’t do that. It didn’t close again.
Already did, but changed nothing 
Look to the code I posted on that link. The person had the same issue, detecting when entering and leaving a hit box
I think you need to determine if the issue is your detecting hitboxes correctly or if its a problem with the mechanic of the door opening and closing.
maybe use some print statements that print “Open” and “Close” to make sure the hitbox stuff works first. Then if it does, but doors not opening or closing properly, then work on the mechanic of the doors
Are you sure you’re going in the hitbox and then exiting the hitbox back and fourth (at a fast pace)? If so, must’ve been 2 tweens (in one part) are playing at the same time, which you know, break the tweens.
The script I’m using is the one you sent me. This is what happens in video:
And this is the script you gave me:
local model = script.Parent
local trigger_in = model.Trigger_In
local left = model.MainL
local right = model.MainR
local activated = false
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
model.Speed.Value, --Time
Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, --Easing Style
Enum.EasingDirection.Out, --EasingDirection
0, --Repeat Count
false, --Reverse
0 --DelayTime
)
local function open(hitPart)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitPart.Parent)
if player and activated == false then
activated = true
local tweenL = TweenService:Create(left, tweenInfo, {Position = model.TargetL.Position})
local tweenR = TweenService:Create(right, tweenInfo, {Position = model.TargetR.Position})
tweenL:Play()
tweenR:Play()
tweenR.Completed:Wait()
end
end
local function close(hitPart)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitPart.Parent)
if player and activated == true then
activated = false
--Create the Tween closing animation by yourself.
end
end
trigger_in.Touched:Connect(open)
trigger_in.TouchEnded:Connect(close)
I forgot there’s a Completed event in the function. Remove that.
Weird, if that’s the case, then I’ll try to do something.
As I said, put some print statements or breakpoints to make sure its getting into that ‘close’ funcion

…Are you sure that you made both closing tweens? Because I just took a glance and there isn’t any?
There isn’t a tween for closing, I’m not sure how to do that. The tween for opening goes to target L and Target R. How do I tween it to go back to its original position?
Well, make 2 parts and put both of them inside the doors. It should be getting you the original position. Then you can tween it using those 2 parts. Oh, make sure it is transparent and non-collidable. I mean, we wouldn’t like parts being visible and blocking the door entrance, right?
(PS: I thought CFrame was gonna work, but I guess not, since Position kind of overrides it.)
Here is from my own door’s code
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
1,
Enum.EasingStyle.Quart,
Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
0,
false,
0
)
local tweenOpenRight = game.TweenService:Create(motorRight,tweenInfo,{TargetAngle=100})
local tweenOpenLeft = game.TweenService:Create(motorLeft,tweenInfo,{TargetAngle=100})
local tweenCloseRight = game.TweenService:Create(motorRight,tweenInfo,{TargetAngle=0})
local tweenCloseLeft = game.TweenService:Create(motorLeft,tweenInfo,{TargetAngle=0})
tweenOpenRight:Play()
tweenOpenLeft:Play()
tweenOpenRight.Completed:Wait()
tweenCloseRight:Play()
tweenCloseLeft:Play()
tweenCloseRight.Completed:Wait()
Can I use CFrame instead. I don’t like this tween
CFrames are perfectly okay. They’re the same thing with Position.
With a bit of help from @SelDraken’s solution to “Touched is endlessly turned on and off”, I finally got it working!
local model = script.Parent
local trigger_in = model.Trigger_In
local left = model.MainL
local right = model.MainR
local activated = false
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
model.Speed.Value, --Time
Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, --Easing Style
Enum.EasingDirection.Out, --EasingDirection
0, --Repeat Count
false, --Reverse
0 --DelayTime
)
local CFrame1 = CFrame.new(3,0,0)
local CFrame2 = CFrame.new(-3,0,0)
local CFrameRevert = {
Original_CFrame_Left = left.CFrame;
Original_CFrame_Right = right.CFrame
}
local tweenL = TweenService:Create(left, tweenInfo, {CFrame = left.CFrame * CFrame1})
local tweenR = TweenService:Create(right, tweenInfo, {CFrame = right.CFrame * CFrame2})
local tweenLClose = TweenService:Create(left, tweenInfo, {CFrame = CFrameRevert.Original_CFrame_Left})
local tweenRClose = TweenService:Create(right, tweenInfo, {CFrame = CFrameRevert.Original_CFrame_Right})
local function open(hitPart)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitPart.Parent)
if player and not activated and not player:GetAttribute("InBlock") and hitPart.Name == "HumanoidRootPart" then
player:SetAttribute("InBlock",true)
activated = true
tweenL:Play()
tweenR:Play()
end
end
local function close(hitPart)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitPart.Parent)
if player and activated and hitPart.Name == "HumanoidRootPart" then
activated = false
player:SetAttribute("InBlock",false)
tweenLClose:Play()
tweenRClose:Play()
end
end
trigger_in.Touched:Connect(open)
trigger_in.TouchEnded:Connect(close)
(PS: You do not need any “TargetL” or “TargetR” parts as this script will use CFrame.new instead.)
Also, the MainR and MainL must be a part. I think it’s a part already, but I’m just checking.
Edit: I’ve updated the place file and code to account for players logging off while inside hit box.
I went ahead and just made a sliding door. I had only done rotating doors before, so this was a nice learning experience.

local hitBox = script.Parent:WaitForChild("HitBox")
local closeSound = script.Parent:WaitForChild("SoundContainer"):WaitForChild("CloseSound")
local openSound = script.Parent:WaitForChild("SoundContainer"):WaitForChild("OpenDoor")
--====== Tweening Things ===========
local rightDoor = script.Parent:WaitForChild("RightDoor")
local leftDoor = script.Parent:WaitForChild("LeftDoor")
local closedLeft = leftDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame
local closedRight = rightDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame
local openLeft = leftDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame + (leftDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame.RightVector * -openDistance)
local openRight = rightDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame + (rightDoor.PrimaryPart.CFrame.RightVector * openDistance)
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(

Enum.EasingStyle.Quart,

local tweenOpenRight = game.TweenService:Create(rightDoor.PrimaryPart,tweenInfo,{CFrame = openRight})

Hi, Omg Thank youuu so much!!!
I feel like this can also be archived with worldroot:FindPartsInRegion3. I haven’t tried it before but given the name it should do what it’s intended
