I’m working on a curtain system that expands from the left side. However, despite adjusting the right Z axis, it expands from both left and right, which is not what I want since curtains don’t behave like that.
I’m unsure about the best approach to fix this. Should I implement a tweening system to ensure it moves to the left while resizing?
Here’s my script:
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")
local Part = script.Parent
local prompt = Part.ProximityPrompt
-- Define open and close positions for the door
local Open = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 3.925),
}
local Close = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 5.444)
}
local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(0.5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)
-- Create tweens for opening and closing the door
local tweenOpen = TweenService:Create(Part, tweeninfo, Open)
local tweenClose = TweenService:Create(Part, tweeninfo, Close)
-- Define sound effects
local openSound = Instance.new("Sound")
openSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
openSound.Parent = script.Parent
local closeSound = Instance.new("Sound")
closeSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
closeSound.Parent = script.Parent
local isOpen = false
-- Function to handle opening the door
local function OpenDoor()
if not isOpen then
isOpen = true
tweenOpen:Play()
openSound:Play()
end
end
-- Function to handle closing the door
local function CloseDoor()
if isOpen then
isOpen = false
tweenClose:Play()
closeSound:Play()
end
end
-- Connect the function to the proximity prompt's triggered event
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
if isOpen then
CloseDoor()
else
OpenDoor()
end
end)
You could try splitting up the part into (Left-side, Right-side) because it seems that the code here was originally meant for a door. So splitting up the curtain into two sides will allow you to tween what side you want.
I copied the script from my door model and tweaked it around, but even with the CloseDoor and OpenDoor function it should work on a curtain so renaming it doesn’t change anything.
I messed around with the script and came up with the idea to move the curtain left while it resizes to give it the illusion that it’s resizing from the left face. Here’s what I have right now, but for some reason once the curtain is closed, it won’t open again with the proximity prompt:
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")
local Part = script.Parent
local prompt = Part.ProximityPrompt
-- Define open and close properties for curtain
local Open = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 3.925),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.797),
}
local Close = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 5.444),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.696),
}
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)
-- Tween to resize and move curtain
local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, tweenInfo, {
Size = Close.Size,
Position = Close.Position,
})
-- Sound
local openSound = Instance.new("Sound")
openSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
openSound.Parent = script.Parent
local closeSound = Instance.new("Sound")
closeSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
closeSound.Parent = script.Parent
local isOpen = false
-- Function to handle opening and closing curtain
local function ToggleCurtain()
if isOpen then
isOpen = false
tween:Play(Open)
closeSound:Play()
else
isOpen = true
tween:Play(Close)
openSound:Play()
end
end
-- Connects the function to the proximity prompt's triggered event
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
ToggleCurtain()
end)
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")
local Part = script.Parent
local prompt = Part.ProximityPrompt
-- Define open and close properties for curtain
local Open = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 3.925),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.797),
}
local Close = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 5.444),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.696),
}
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)
-- Tween to resize and move curtain
local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, tweenInfo, {
Size = Close.Size,
Position = Close.Position,
})
-- Sound
local openSound = Instance.new("Sound")
openSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
openSound.Parent = script.Parent
local closeSound = Instance.new("Sound")
closeSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
closeSound.Parent = script.Parent
local isOpen = false
-- Function to handle opening and closing curtain
local function ToggleCurtain()
if isOpen == true then
isOpen = false
tween:Play(Open)
closeSound:Play()
else
isOpen = true
tween:Play(Close)
openSound:Play()
end
end
-- Connects the function to the proximity prompt's triggered event
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
ToggleCurtain()
end)
When I interact with the proximity prompt for the first time it closes the curtain, but then when I want to open the curtain and interact with the prompt again, it does not do anything, it simply won’t budge.
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")
local Part = script.Parent
local prompt = Part.ProximityPrompt
-- Define open and close properties for curtain
local Open = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 3.925),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.797),
}
local Close = {
Size = Vector3.new(1.087, 12.29, 5.444),
Position = Vector3.new(-30.872, 13.745, -34.696),
}
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)
-- Sound
local openSound = Instance.new("Sound")
openSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
openSound.Parent = script.Parent
local closeSound = Instance.new("Sound")
closeSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://16550161811"
closeSound.Parent = script.Parent
local isOpen = false
-- Function to handle opening and closing curtain
local function ToggleCurtain()
if isOpen == true then
local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, tweenInfo, Close)
isOpen = false
closeSound:Play()
tween:Play()
repeat task.wait() until (tween.PlaybackState == Enum.PlaybackState.Completed)
tween:Destroy()
else
local tween = TweenService:Create(Part, tweenInfo, Open)
isOpen = true
openSound:Play()
tween:Play()
repeat task.wait() until (tween.PlaybackState == Enum.PlaybackState.Completed)
tween:Destroy()
end
end
-- Connects the function to the proximity prompt's triggered event
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
ToggleCurtain()
end)
That still doesn’t get it right, it seems to move the curtain to the new position first and then activate the size sequence. It’s supposed to do it together at once.
