Tweening a lot of things

Hey everyone, So today (This is for an obby) I wanted to make a stage where there are 15 plants up top and they “Eat” you. Really they are just falling on top of you when you hit the detector. I’ve doing it for a while but not really sure how I could do this a fast way. There are 15 of them that are hanging from the ceiling and I just want them to fall when touched. I also want to Tween the object but I always get an error saying that Position is not a object in Model. I am not sure how I can do it any other way since I can’t make my meshparts unions. If anyone knows how to help me with this, please leave a comment on this.

Can you try to specify your problem in an example? I don’t understand.

#3

ok, so basically when I try to code one of the plants it always gives me an error. An error that I have never seen before with tweening. It either says that the model doesn’t have a position (Which is true) or Argument 3 missing or nil. The 2nd one is what I keep getting the most. I was going to do it in serverscriptservice so I could script all of them in one script but then I just decided to do it in multiple.
I just need help with my script basically. here is my script

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local part = game.Workspace.Greenthing.GreenThing
local detector = game.Workspace.Detector1

local info = TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce,Enum.EasingDirection.Out)

local properties = part:MoveTo(Vector3.new(250.32, -65.676, -464.47))
local prop = part:MoveTo(Vector3.new(250.32, -49.796, -464.47))

local tween = TweenService:Create(part,info,properties)
local Tween = TweenService:Create(part,info,prop)

detector.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")then
		tween:Play()
		wait(3)
		Tween:Play()
	end
end)

I’m pretty sure you can’t use the MoveTo() as a property.

#5

Alright, I’m not sure the error because I’m only begineer, but try to make the properties variable into a list containing all the final results you need

#6

As others have said the last arguement of the TweenService:Create function accepts a table of what all properties to tween so you would want to change the properties and prop variable accordingly. As an example here:

local properties = {Position = Vector3.new(250.32, -65.676, -464.47)}
#7

Yea, I did do that, That’s how I always do it, this time I couldn’t do it because it would give me an error. It would say that position is not a valid member of the model, or position isn’t a property in a model.

#8

I looked at the object browser and went down to look at the stuff I could use for position in models, and it said that I could use MoveTo() in a model, but I’m not sure. It even gave me the option to pick it. Usually when it isn’t a property it wont give the option to pick the property.

#9

So what have to do is weld all other parts in the model to the primary part. Then tween that primary part

I am also new to scripting, I’m only good with tweening but I don’t know what is really happening here haha.

Tween service can tween the properties of an instance only if I’m right

ohhhhh, ok… Let me try that out.

#13

CAN we see ur workspace that contains the plants and show all the childrens?

Okay, I think I know why. Your trying to change the model’s position, but there’s no position for models in the properties tab. Try using GetChildren() for that model.

#16

I have done that, but when I do that, I get confused on what I was supposed to do next.

#17

And don’t use MoveTo(), just do this.

local properties = {Position = CFrame.new(position)}
#18

Does it matter if I use vector3?

#19 
local parts = game.Workspace.Greenthing.GreenThing:GetChildren()
#20

Nope, use vector3 if u want. CFrame suits well for me.
