Trouble moving tween forward in accordance to player position

As the title explains, I’m having trouble making my part move forward. I’ve tried tweens, bodyvelocity, lookvector, but since I’ve never tried much of this stuff, I couldn’t get anything to work. I have the part rotating, too, so I don’t know if that is interfering.

local w1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Breathings:WaitForChild("w1"):Clone()
	w1.CFrame = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,4,0)
	w1.Parent = workspace

local info11 = TweenInfo.new(2,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear)
	local goal11 = {}
	goal11.Position = w1.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-75)
	goal11.Transparency = 1
	local tween11 = tweenservice:Create(w1,info11,goal11):Play()
	game.Debris:AddItem(w1,1)

spawn(function()
	repeat
		wait()
		w1.CFrame = w1.CFrame * CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(-0.2,0,0) 
	until
	false
end)

Sometimes, the part goes forward, not in accordance to the player, but actually to a dummy. Other times, like this, the part simply spins on the spot, and doesn’t move at all. Any ideas on what is happening, and how to fix it?

I am not 100% sure how tweenService works, but could you try initialising goal11.Position with vector3.new()? Maybe that will work.

I tried this, but it didn’t go forward, it went towards a certain spot on the baseplate. This is the code I tried

local info11 = TweenInfo.new(2,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear)
local goal11 = {}
goal11.Position = w1.Position * Vector3.new(0,0,5)
goal11.Transparency = 1
local tween11 = tweenservice:Create(w1,info11,goal11):Play()
game.Debris:AddItem(w1,1)

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
local HRP = character.HumanoidRootPart

local distance = 20

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear)
local tween = TweenService:Create(HRP, tweenInfo, { CFrame = HRP.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, -distance) })
tween:Play()

This will move the character straight forward. You have to mulitple CFrames by CFrame values or else it won’t work. Another thing, negative on the z axis is forward.

Thank you! I managed to get this to work with parts, too! You’re a real lifesaver!
