Transportation/Teleportation using Bezier Curve

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

Hello! I am trying to make a teleportation using bezier curve.

So basically, when the player triggers the proximityprompt, it’ll fire and event.
And then, theres many stuffs that happens; invisiblity, particles and i want to add a bezier curve when the player gets transported to the position i have set.

But when i play test, all the scripts works fine but the bezier curve just looks crusty and weird.

this is what i expect it to be like:

here’s a vid of how it looks like in game:

local script:

local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = rs:WaitForChild("Character"):WaitForChild("characterTeleport")

local proximityPrompt = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("book"):WaitForChild("Plane"):WaitForChild("Attachment"):WaitForChild("ProximityPrompt")
local debounce = false

proximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
	remoteEvent:FireServer()
end)

script:

local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = rs:WaitForChild("Character"):WaitForChild("characterTeleport")

function fade(v)
	for i = 1,20 do
		v.Transparency += 0.1
		task.wait()
	end
end

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	local character = Player.Character
	if not character then		
		return		
	end
	for i, v in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do
		if not v:IsA("BasePart") then 
			continue		
		end
		task.spawn(fade, v)
	end
end)

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	local character = Player.Character
	local humrp = character.HumanoidRootPart
	
	local particle = rs:WaitForChild("Character"):WaitForChild("particle"):Clone()
	particle.Parent = game.Workspace
	particle.CFrame = humrp.CFrame
	
	local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
	runService.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
		particle.Position = humrp.Position
	end)
end)

local function lerp(p0,p1,t)
	return p0*(1-t) + p1*t
end

local function quad(p0,p1,p2, t)
	local l1 = lerp(p0,p1,t)
	local l2 = lerp(p1,p2,t)
	local quad = lerp(l1,l2,t)
	return quad
end

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	local character = Player.Character
	local humrp = character.HumanoidRootPart
	
	local start = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part").Position
	local finish = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part2").Position
	local middle = (finish - start) + Vector3.new(0,30,0)

	for i = 1, 100 do
		local  t = i/100
		local updated = quad(start,middle,finish,t)
		humrp.Position = updated
		wait(0.01)
	end
end)

Thanks for helping me!

The character isn’t anchored, so in between teleports, the character falls a bit, causing the glitchiness. Additionally, this doesn’t account for wait(0.01) waiting longer than 0.01, although this probably isn’t the cause of the issue. To improve your code, I would suggest doing it on the client, since character movements are automatically replicated to the server.

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")


local function lerp(p0,p1,t)
	return p0*(1-t) + p1*t
end

local function quad(p0,p1,p2, t)
	local l1 = lerp(p0,p1,t)
	local l2 = lerp(p1,p2,t)
	local quad = lerp(l1,l2,t)
	return quad
end
function teleportPlayer()
	local character = Player.Character
	local humrp = character.HumanoidRootPart

	local start = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part").Position
	local finish = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part2").Position
	local middle = (finish - start) / 2 + start + Vector3.new(0, 30, 0)

	local t = 0
	while t < 1 do
		character:PivotTo(CFrame.new(quad(start, middle, finish, t)))
		local dt = task.wait()
		t += dt * 0.1
	end
	
end

Just to add, there’s no reason to handle proximity triggered in client when you can do it in server

Is the result exactly the same tho?

Yes, the result is exactly the same.

Is there any way to do this in a server script? i tried to but the move in a normal script but, it appears to be glitchy

Why are you doing it in a server script?

Because there’s no reason to handle client proximity in the client.
