You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:
What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
A plane that goes forward.
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
How do I make it go forward infinetly?
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
No solutions on the dev hub. I have already looked on youtube, it is just “get this free model”.
while task.wait() do -- this code should prevent the plane from falling
Plane.PrimaryPart.AssembilyLinearVelocity = Vector3.new(x,0,z) -- fill the x and z cordinates with your own
end
Plus I would advise you to provide more context as you aren’t aloud to make others make you stuff for you.
It says ApplyLinearVelocity is not a valid member of Part.
Again you provided no context towards how you wanted the plane to be made, and no I’m not going to make an entire plane system for you. I would atleast advise you to try and make something on your own first and then ask the forum if you get stuck on something.
I am not asking for an entire plane system. I am asking how you make an object go infinitely forward.

I’d suggest you look into plane kits that are already available on the Roblox toolbox as many of them will provide you with what you’re looking for! And you will be able to learn from them as making an object move forward in the way you want it to can be ticky without lots of experience using body Gyros and other constraints like that
in the moveForward() function you can do this
function moveForward()
local root = Plane.PrimaryPart
local speed = Variables.Airspeed.Value
root.AssembilyLinearVelocity = root.CFrame + (root.CFrame.LookVector * Vector3.new(speed,0,0))
end
No errors but it’s not moving, it is unanchored.
It’s pretty clear that you aren’t much of an experienced programmer as the code you provided clearly is largely out of date. I would recommend learning more about how to actually program in Roblox Lua before heading on into something like this.
Although I would recommend using LinearVelocity which can be used to move the plane as a physics object and try to make a system from scratch.
I’ve been programming lua for 4 years and always had problems with linear velocity
Really? 4 Years? and you still don’t know how to make a simple plane go forward and provide almost zero context? Did you really learn anything from those 4 years?
I’m not trying to start an argument, I’ve never made any type of vehicle in studio. There is not really much to share, all I’m asking is how you make a normal part go forward infinitely. I have already tried several things which didn’t work.
honestly, i cannot see why it wouldnt work, maybe the speed or root isnt set correctly? or maybe the plus sign in
root.CFrame = root.CFrame + (root.CFrame.LookVector * Vector3.new(speed,0,0))
should be changed for an * ?
I am very sorry about my past behavior, but I will provide this place which includes a part that will infinitely move forward and say in the air
Place2.rbxl (45.9 KB)
I will try both of these above.
It works. Thank you very much!
