Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

so basically I’ve been trying to make this

but this is the closest thing I can get to getting what I want but I don’t know how to achieve it

can anyone help me please
I’m about to go insane

this is the script in startercharacterscripts

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local root = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local head = char:WaitForChild("Head")
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local ha = hum:LoadAnimation(script:WaitForChild('ha'))
local tg = plr:WaitForChild("PlayerGui"):FindFirstChild("TouchGui")
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local ledgeavailable = true
local holding = false

local function c()
	local velo = Instance.new("BodyVelocity",root)
	root.Anchored = false
	velo.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1,1,1) * math.huge
	velo.Velocity = root.CFrame.LookVector * 10 + Vector3.new(0,30,0)
	ha:Stop()
	game.Debris:AddItem(velo,.15)
	holding = false
	char:WaitForChild('Torso').Anchored = false
	wait(.75)
	ledgeavailable = true
end

local function onInputBegan(input, gameProcessed)
	if not holding then return end 
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space and not gameProcessed then
		c()
	end
end

local function onJumpButtonClicked()
	if not holding then return end 
	c()
end

uis.InputBegan:Connect(onInputBegan)

if tg then
	local jumpButton = tg:WaitForChild("TouchControlFrame"):WaitForChild("JumpButton")
	jumpButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onJumpButtonClicked)
end

while true do
	local r = Ray.new(head.CFrame.p, head.CFrame.LookVector * 3)
	local part,position = workspace:FindPartOnRay(r,char)

	if part and ledgeavailable and not holding then
		if part.Size.Y >= 7 then
			if head.Position.Y >= (part.Position.Y + (part.Size.Y / 2)) - 1 and head.Position.Y <= part.Position.Y + (part.Size.Y / 2) and  root.Velocity.Y <= 0 then
				for _, descendant in ipairs(workspace.uwu:GetDescendants()) do
					if descendant:IsA("Part") then
						local partpos = descendant.Position
						
						local t = char:WaitForChild('Torso')
						local playerpos = t.CFrame.Position
						local lookAt = Vector3.new(partpos.X, playerpos.Y, partpos.Z)

						root.Anchored = true
						holding = true
						ha:Play()
						ledgeavailable = false
						t.Anchored = true
						t.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(playerpos, lookAt)
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	
	wait()
end```

Is it that you aren’t lined up perfectly against the wall? I don’t really understand the problem.

#3

The ray function should also return a normal.

With this normal, subtract it from the position the player’s humanoid root part is currently at, and make the player face that.

I also recommend using workspace:Raycast() rather than the deprecated workspace:FindPartOnRay().

the problem is that when you climb looking at an angle, it ends up like this

i want the player to look directly at the wall when they climb like this

#5

I don’t quite understand this, but using workspace:Raycast() breaks the whole script

#6

That’s what @d0cter_oof mentioned with the normal Property.
It tells you which way the wall is facing so you can calculate the angle the Player needs to face.

Raycast() works differently to FindPartOnRay():

local root = character.HumanoidRootPart
local head = character.Head

-- Raycast() requires RaycastParams, which give us considerable control over raycasts.
local params = RaycastParams.new()
-- params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Include
-- params.FilterDescendantsInstances = Ledges
params.RespectCanCollide = true

local raycastResults = workspace:Raycast(head.Position, head.CFrame.LookVector * 3, params)
local normal = raycastResults.Normal
root.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(root.Position, root.Position - normal)
