Part not going directly down, rather to the side?

[eggspIicit (dylan)]

I’m trying to make this part go straight down but for some reason it goes to the right every time I click it.

Explorer :

LocalScript (Inside Menu)

--// variables
local Menu = script.Parent
local OptionsButton = Menu.Options
local PlayButton = Menu.Play
local xButton = Menu.x
local Title = Menu.title

local DropButton = Menu.Drop
local Status = Menu.status

local isPlaying = false

local drop = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("drop")

--//  main

PlayButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	xButton.Visible = false
	PlayButton.Visible = false
	OptionsButton.Visible = false
	Title.Visible = false
	
	isPlaying = true
	Status.Visible = true
	DropButton.Visible = true
end)

DropButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if isPlaying == true then
		drop:FireServer()
	end
end)

Tween (inside the yellow piece / Coin)

local Part = script.Parent
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService") 
local Pos = Vector3.new(5.5, 24, 1) -- Change this to the position you want part to move to
local drop = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("drop")

local Moving_Info = TweenInfo.new(
	1, --the amount of seconds you want it to take
	Enum.EasingStyle.Back,
	Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
	999, --The amount of time you want it to repeat
	true, --Whether you want it to reverse back to the original position when it's done
	0 -- how much time should delay between each repitition
)

local Drop_Info = TweenInfo.new(
	1,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
	Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
	1,
	false,
	0
)

local dropPos = Vector3.new(Part.Position.X, Part.Position.Y-7, Part.Position.Z)

local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, Moving_Info, {Position = Pos})
tween:Play()

drop.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	local stoppedpos = Part.CFrame
	tween:Cancel()
	wait(1)
	Part.CFrame = stoppedpos
	local tween2 = TweenService:Create(Part, Drop_Info, {Position = dropPos})
	tween2:Play()
end)

as you can see with my mouse movements, i want it to go straight down from the point when i click the buton, but rather it chooses to go back to where the origin of the animation is and go down 7 studs there

@eggspIicit

Vector3.new(5.5, 24, 1)

You’re moving the part to the coordinates above, the x axis (or possibly the z) is not the same as the parts current one which is why it goes to the right.

I believed what you actually wanted to tween it to was

@eggspIicit

local dropPos = Vector3.new(Part.Position.X, Part.Position.Y-7, Part.Position.Z)

But in the tween you used Pos not dropPos

@eggspIicit

local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, Moving_Info, {Position = Pos})

Hi sorry, I fixed it with this.

drop.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	local stoppedpos = Part.CFrame
	tween:Cancel()
	wait(1)
	Part.CFrame = stoppedpos
	local test = Vector3.new(stoppedpos.X, stoppedpos.Y - 7, stoppedpos.Z)
	local tween2 = TweenService:Create(Part, Drop_Info, {Position = test})
	tween2:Play()
end)
