Which part is causing you trouble?

#3

I’m just currently not sure how to do it.

that is done using beams sir the beam attachment 1 is the humanoidrootpart and the attachment 2 is the target and the arrow in that picture seem to be another beam above it with a texture i’ve done this before

If you have the arrows, it’s easy.

#6

But do you know how I can do this locally instead?

#7

By using a localscript :face_with_raised_eyebrow: ? That’s the only way.

#8

Yeah if you have the arrows, reply me.

#9

Yeah, I do have the arrows. Why?

#10

by creating and setting the beam attacments in a localscript

#11

How would I make this arrow facing the correct way?

I tried doing it, but it’s still the same.

to fix the textue make sure the tip faces down

As many others said before this was done using Beams and attachments… but if you wanted to use a part, you can use the code below to make a part look from one part to another.

Arrow.CFrame = CFrame.new(char.HumanoidRootPart.Position,partToLookAt.Position)
