Part wont look at player?

[6_388]

I am making it so that a part in workspace is always looking at the player, but it won’t work

I get no errors, here is my script.

local part = script.Parent

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character
local head = char:FindFirstChild("Head")


while true do
	part.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(part.Position, head.Position)
	task.wait()
end

You should Probably wait for the Character, or the Players Head.

Is it a local script or a server script?
Is the Part Anchored?

localscript and the parts anchored

Localscripts don’t run in the workspace (I’m assuming this because you parented the script to the part)

@6_388

task.wait(1)
local part = script.Parent
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
local head = char:FindFirstChild("Head")

while task.wait(0.01) do
	part.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(part.Position, head.Position)
end

Keep the following in a LocalScript in StarterPlayer > StarterCharacter

They do, but they should be put into workspace after game spawns for the player

I wouldn’t use a wait() function. Instead, I would add a WaitForChild() function to all the variables that include a path to a instance.
And instead of a while loop, I would use Roblox’s heartbeat.

local part = --Path
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")

game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function()
	part.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(part.Position, head.Position)
end

But if you use too many wait for child, the local script will have soo many yields sometimes throws an error called attempt to index nil

And yes heart beat is good, I was actually typing it, so I didn’t mention sorry my bad, sorry

[furious_cucomber (Geody)]

You’ve got a point. It is a bit better than one wait() function since different clients take different times to load, and sometimes might take longer than 1 second.

Small not: I also only used one WaitForChild() function in my script, which should be fine.
