Rotating a Client-Sided Model

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I would like to rotate a Model(That exists only on the client) using a ModuleScript.

I tried to rotate it the normal way, but it just doesn’t rotate(no errors on the console):

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject)
	if inputObject.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
		local value = inputObject.KeyCode.Value
		if value == 114 then
			if script.Parent.Configuration.UnitEditor.Value == true then
				if Unit then
					--print("x")
					Unit:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(Unit.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(90), 0))
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

I tried searching for problems like this one and I couldn’t find(only found a client-sided script to server-sided model solution), if this is a duplicated topic please reply and I’ll close this one.

Did you try debugging? Does it print “x” if you uncomment the print line?

is it required by the local script?

Yes, it does print the “x” when uncommented.

The piece of code is inside the ModuleScript and it is being required by a LocalScript.
I know it reaches the Unit:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(Unit.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(90), 0)) because it prints the “x”.

Try using Unit:GetPrimaryPartCFrame() instead.

It isn’t working, the rotation never changes.

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject)
	if inputObject.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
		local value = inputObject.KeyCode.Value
		if value == 114 then
			if script.Parent.Configuration.UnitEditor.Value == true then
				if Unit then
					Unit:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(Unit:GetPrimaryPartCFrame() * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(90), 0))
					print(Unit.PrimaryPart.CFrame)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

I cant understand why, but it works this way:

Unit.PrimaryPart.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(90), 0)

Thanks for all the help.
