The direction that the wall spawns next to the player is wrong. Why isn't it working?

Hello fellow Roblox Developers!
–Introduction–
I’m making a tool that makes it so that when you press e, a rock wall spawns next to the player and pushes nearby enemies into the void.

–Problem–
To spawn the wall next to the player, I used player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position + player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector, but the wall spawns at the wrong direction the player is facing.

What’s wrong? What do I do to fix it?

I’d probably do this

Distance = 4; --Studs away
Wall.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-Distance) --Negative distance to make it go forward

Try that and see if that works

Well there’s two things you can do, either adjust the size of your wall or try to find the correct angle using CFrame.Angles()

Wall.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-Distance) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(90),0,0)   --Rotates 90 degrees

Try playing around with the angles if that doesn’t work
Also, assuming that your using a loop to move the brick, it’s still going the wrong way

Distance = 4; --Studs away
Wall.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-Distance) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(90),0,0) --Negative distance to make it go forward

rate = 2
for i=1,100 do
    Wall.CFrame = Wall.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-rate)  
    wait(.01)    --Every 0.1 seconds it will move rate studs
end
