for i, v in pairs(FolderBeam:GetChildren()) do
			if v.Name ~= "BeamIn" and v.Name ~= "BeamOut" then
				local goal = {}
				goal.Size = v.Size + Vector3.new(200,0,0)

				local info = TweenInfo.new(6, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine)
				local tween = TweenService:Create(v,info,goal)
				tween:Play()
			end

	end)

like that or not?

I edited my previous post and provided the code.
You were close but you forgot that it is using TweenService so roblox will handle the positioning for you.
All you have to provide is the final destination.

Since you use TweenService, if the player rotates while the beam is playing, it will not react for it but this will fix the current issue.

#23

If you’re welding you should use WeldConstraints they’re new and easier to adjust. ManualWelds tend to break if you position them, or resize them.

#24

I’m back to square one with my old problem

#25

I’m going to recommend to try and not use TweenService for CFraming the beam as you aren’t able to change the final CFrame destination on the fly. (example: Player rotates as you noticed)

I recommend using RunService.Heartbeat or a while true do loop so you are able to modify the CFrame on the fly.
(I wish you luck on your project but it is 12am here and I got to get some sleep).

By the way, go ahead and revert the code I gave you so it is easier for others to assist you.

local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
weld.Parent = workspace
weld.Part0 = BeamIn
weld.Part1 = Center

local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
weld.Parent = workspace
weld.Part0 = BeamOut
weld.Part1 = BeamIn

why he did not weld?

#27

You parented your welds in the workspace so that is why they don’t appear in the parts themselves but in the workspace instead.

#28

Yes good, use weldconstraints. Then try to position, and resize the way you regularly do.

ok thanks for the help and had a nice day
