Spring Module but for CFrames

Yeah I like the module because it uses os.clock() and cool metatable stuff.

I think an easier way of doing this is to use the mouse delta to get the shoving force direction and magnitude instead of my overly complicated CFrame approach from this really neat FPS tutorial which I should have looked at earlier :stuck_out_tongue: .

		-- Let's get some mouse movement!
		local mouseDelta = game:GetService("UserInputService"):GetMouseDelta()
		self.springs.sway:shove(Vector3.new(mouseDelta.x / 200,mouseDelta.y / 200)) --not sure if this needs deltaTime filtering
--vs my wut CFrame approach
	local differenceCF = previousGoalCFrame:ToObjectSpace(goalCFrame)
	local axis, angle = differenceCF:ToAxisAngle()
	local angularDisplacement = axis*angle
	previousGoalCFrame = goalCFrame
	local springForce = angularDisplacement*deltaSensitivity
	viewmodelSpring:Impulse(springForce)

And to convert the spring force into bobbing you can just use CFrame.Angles instead of CFrame.fromAxisAngles, I believe the CFrame Angles approach gets rid of the rolling rotation as well if thats what you are looking for:

--tutorial sway method:
		local sway = self.springs.sway:update(deltaTime)
		self.viewmodel.rootPart.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0,-sway.x,sway.y)
--my CFrame from axis angle method:
	local partSpringOffset = viewmodelSpring.Position
	local axis = partSpringOffset.Unit
	local angle = partSpringOffset.Magnitude
	part.CFrame *= CFrame.fromAxisAngle(axis,angle)

Edit: I do like axis angles a lot.
