Sliding Doors tween breaks after changing the model orientation

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Greetings everyone
So I have made this sliding door system for one of my projects.
The problem I have found its the tween slices the doors in the wrong way once the rotation/orientation is changed.

I have tried fixing the problem with the devforum solutions, but It keep refusing to tween the doors properly. I would be glad if anyone has a solution for this because I ran out of ideas.

local OpenCloseTime = 3.3

local Tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")

I would use CFrame’s normal vectors such as LookVector, RightVector and UpVector with their negated versions. What you can do with these is to add their value to their original position and multiply it to how far you want the door to go, for example; if the RightVector is Vector3.new(1, 0, 0), the door’s position is Vector3.new(5, 5, 5) and we want the door to go to its right 5 studs we multiply that vector (Vector3.new(5, 0, 0)), then we add it to the door’s position and we get Vector3.new(10, 5, 5). At last we convert it to a CFrame and add its rotation since we’re using a CFrameValue.

local function Tween()
	local Door1Pivot = Door1:GetPivot()
	local Door2Pivot = Door2:GetPivot()
	
	local Tween1 = TweenService:Create(CFValue1, TweenInfo.new(3.3), {Value = CFrame.new(Door1Pivot.Position + -(Door1Pivot.RightVector * 5)) * CFrame.Angles(Door1Pivot:ToEulerAnglesXYZ())})
	local Tween2 = TweenService:Create(CFValue2, TweenInfo.new(3.3), {Value = CFrame.new(Door2Pivot.Position + (Door2Pivot.RightVector * 5)) * CFrame.Angles(Door2Pivot:ToEulerAnglesXYZ())})
	
	Tween1:Play()
	Tween2:Play()
	Tween1.Completed:Wait()
	--etc
end
