Model has collision when using :MoveTo()

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Okay so I’m making a sliding door, but every time I activate it, it will teleport the model on top of the building, even though I have CanCollide for every single part off, when being moved. Here’s my code for opening and closing the door.

Open Door Code:

function OpenDoor()
	door.PrimaryPart = door.Glass
	cido.Value = true
	script.Parent.col.BrickColor = acol
	local cframe = door.PrimaryPart.CFrame -- Current CFrame
	
	for i, v in pairs(door:GetChildren()) do
		v.CanCollide = false
	end
	local vz = 0
	for count = 1, 45 do
		vz = vz - 0.007
		local pos = Vector3.new(door.Glass.Position.X, door.Glass.Position.Y, door.Glass.Position.Z + vz)
		door:MoveTo(pos)
		wait(0.0000000000001)
	end
end

Close Door Code:

function CloseDoor()
	door.PrimaryPart = door.Glass
	cido.Value = false
	script.Parent.col.BrickColor = dcol
	local cframe = door.PrimaryPart.CFrame -- Current CFrame
	
	local vz = 0
	for count = 1, 45 do
		vz = vz - 0.007
		local pos = Vector3.new(door.Glass.Position.X, door.Glass.Position.Y, door.Glass.Position.Z - vz)
		door:MoveTo(pos)
		wait(0.0000000000001)
	end
	for i, v in pairs(door:GetChildren()) do
		v.CanCollide = true
	end
end

Thanks for your help! :smile_cat:

I’m not sure if but maybe you will be disappointed when you rotate the door and the Z axis becomes the front and not the side, however I haven’t tested this and I’m not sure so don’t hold my word on it.

#3

The function MoveTo was designed to increase the y axis if there was a part obstructing the space the model was trying to be placed in. You’ll have to use SetPrimaryPartCFrame if you want it to force it in that position.

Also a much better solution would be to use the TweenService to reposition the door parts. Will give you a much smoother animation.

If the model colliding is a problem , then make sure the Primary Part of a model is set, and it’s CanCollide property is set to false.
also as DesiredFlamingFire mentioned, use SetPrimaryPartCframe

This is what I changed my code to and it worked.

This is a good solution, although it is harder to implement with models. I will look more into this.

Thanks for everyone’s help! :smile_cat:

So for model all you have to do is weld/motor6d the parts to their respectable base part.

#9

What would be the difference between them? Is one better than the other?

#10

Motor6Ds are more flexible with CFrame whereas welds aren’t on the same level. However, it entirely depends on what you want to achieve. For tweening a model, it doesn’t matter if you use welds or Motor6Ds unless you plan to add in animations to the model.
