#1

Hello, i’ve been researching for days but i didnt found anything, heres an attempt i made :


						repeat

							moverPart.Position = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Position + plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.LookVector * 7 
							wait(0.08)
						until moverPart.Touched:Connect(function()

I don’t think you quite understand how events work.
It should look more something like this.

local humanoidRootPart = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local touched = false

moverPart.Touched:Once(function()
	touched = true
end)

while not touched do
	moverPart.Position = humanoidRootPart.Position + humanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 7
	task.wait(.08)
end

I have not tested this, the rest is up to you again.

It looks the same as my old code, even when the part touches something, also could you Help me fix the part backing away problem? Right now it just looks like its welded to the hrp when i move

i think you can do is,

while task.wait() do
	moverPart.Position = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Position + plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.LookVector * 7 
	moverPart.Touched:Connect(function()
		break
	end)
end

Also for the “While task.wait()” part you can add what number you want in the “()”

Maybe i almost must mention that all of this happens in an Animation.Stopped event (This is for a throw attack, i welded a part to the enemy)

oh, well im kinda bad at that, but i did use roblox assistant to make a raycast system (i advice for you to also use roblox assistance) here is the code with a bit of modified changes

local moverPart = script.Parent
local rayDirection = Vector3.new(1, 0, 0)
local rayLength = 1

local function isNormalPart(hit)
	if hit:IsA("Part") then
		local parent = hit.Parent
		if parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") then
			return false
		else
			return true
		end
	end
	return false
end

while true do
	task.wait() 
	moverPart.Position = (Switch with the part position system) + rayDirection * 1
	local rayOrigin = moverPart.Position
	local raycastResult = workspace:Raycast(rayOrigin, rayDirection * rayLength)
	if raycastResult then
		local hitPart = raycastResult.Instance
		if isNormalPart(hitPart) then
			print("Detected a normal part: " .. hitPart.Name)
			break
		end
	end
end

Position is not a valid member of ServerScriptService “ServerScriptService”
