Tweening Problems

SteveoAttano · September 4, 2021, 4:20am

What do you want to achieve?
I would like for both of the doors to both open and close.
What is the issue?
To be honest I do not know what the issue is, nothing happens when the prompt is triggered, and their for all I am left with is an error that I can’t solve.

Here is my code

--//Services\\--

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

--//Extra Variables\\--

local isOpen = false
local debounce = false

--//Tween Info\\--

local DoorInfo = TweenInfo.new(3)

--//Create Goals\\--

local Door1OpenGoal = {}
Door1OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z + 3.8)

local Door2OpenGoal = {}
Door2OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z -3.8)

local Door1CloseGoal = {}
Door1CloseGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z - 3.8)

local Door2CloseGoal = {}
Door2CloseGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z + -3.8)

--//Create Tweens\\--

local Door1Open = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door1, DoorInfo, Door1OpenGoal)
local Door2Open = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door2, DoorInfo, Door2OpenGoal)
local Door1Close = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door1, DoorInfo, Door1CloseGoal)
local Door2Close = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door2, DoorInfo, Door2CloseGoal)




function OpenAndCloseDoors ()
	
	if isOpen == false and debounce == false then
		
		debounce = true
		isOpen = true
		
		Door1Open:Play()
		Door2Open:Play()
		
		wait(5)
		
		Door1CloseGoal.Position = script.Parent.Position
		Door2CloseGoal.Position = script.Parent.Position
		
		debounce = false
		
	elseif isOpen == true and debounce == false then
		
		debounce = true
		isOpen = false
		
		Door1Close:Play()
		Door2Close:Play()
		
		wait(5)
		
		debounce = false
		
	end
	
end

script.Parent.KeycardReader1.KeycardReader1Hitbox.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(OpenAndCloseDoors)
script.Parent.KeycardReader2.KeycardReader2Hitbox.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(OpenAndCloseDoors)

I believe the error is happening because you are trying to get the Position of a model. In this case the model is called “Door”. Models do not have a Position so this would not work.

Models can however have a primary part, which you can get the CFrame of in many ways.

I know why the error is happening, I just currently can’t think of a solution.
If anyone could add on to this, that would be great.

Anyways, hope this helped.

Hey so I changed it to

Door1Closegoal.Position = script.Parent.Door1.Position
Door2CloseGoal.Position = script.Parent.Door2.Position

but I still get the error.

Door1Closegoal.CFrame = script.Parent.Door1.PrimaryPart.CFrame
Door2CloseGoal.CFrame = script.Parent.Door2.PrimaryPart.CFrame

try this maybe

also make sure your door model has a primary part, you can set it in the properties tab

—Try this

local Door1OpenGoal = {Position=Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X,script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z + 3.8)}

local Door2OpenGoal = {Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z -3.8)
}

local Door1CloseGoal = {Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z - 3.8)}

local Door2CloseGoal = {Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Position.X, script.Parent.Position.Y, script.Parent.Position.Z + -3.8)}

The only group is the group called Door, and keycard readers, parts cant have primary parts.

SteveoAttano · September 4, 2021, 9:31am

But isn’t that the same thing I already had?

MeteorxBG · September 4, 2021, 10:35am

try this(rewrote your script, idk if it will work but its worth a shot).

--//Services\\--

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

--//Extra Variables\\--

local isOpen = false
local debounce = false

--//Tween Info\\--

local DoorInfo = TweenInfo.new(3)

--//Door referances\\--

local Door1 = script.Parent.Door1
local Door2 = script.Parent.Door2

--//Create Goals\\--

local Door1OpenGoal = {Position = Door1.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,3.8)}
--Door1OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door1.Position.X, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Z + 3.8)

local Door2OpenGoal = {Position = Door2.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,-3.8)}
--Door2OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door2.Position.X, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Z -3.8)

local Door1CloseGoal = {Position = Door1.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,-3.8)}
--Door1CloseGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door1.Position.X, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Z - 3.8)

local Door2CloseGoal = {Position = Door2.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,3.8)}
--Door2CloseGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door2.Position.X, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Z + -3.8)

--//Create Tweens\\--

local Door1Open = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door1, DoorInfo, Door1OpenGoal)
local Door2Open = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door2, DoorInfo, Door2OpenGoal)
local Door1Close = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door1, DoorInfo, Door1CloseGoal)
local Door2Close = TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Door2, DoorInfo, Door2CloseGoal)




function OpenAndCloseDoors ()

	if isOpen == false and debounce == false then

		debounce = true
		isOpen = true

		Door1Open:Play()
		Door2Open:Play()

		wait(5)

		Door1CloseGoal.Position = script.Parent.Position
		Door2CloseGoal.Position = script.Parent.Position

		debounce = false

	elseif isOpen == true and debounce == false then

		debounce = true
		isOpen = false

		Door1Close:Play()
		Door2Close:Play()

		wait(5)

		debounce = false

	end

end

script.Parent.KeycardReader1.KeycardReader1Hitbox.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(OpenAndCloseDoors)
script.Parent.KeycardReader2.KeycardReader2Hitbox.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(OpenAndCloseDoors)

Make sure to make a new script and not just copy it to your script right away.and disable the other script.

Both are exactly the same thing.
You can add something to a dictionary in both ways.
For example -

local t = {"number" = 1} 
--and this - 
local t = {} 
t.number = 1
--or you can also do this 
t = {} 
t["number"] = 1 -- This is cleaner

MeteorxBG · September 4, 2021, 11:23am

the more you know i guess :D.then what might be the problem he is facing?

Zohair_028 · September 4, 2021, 11:28am

@SteveoAttano
I don’t know if you have checked this out or not but here is a really good tutorial by Colbert2677 on tweening models.
Introduction to Tweening Models - Resources / Community Tutorials - DevForum | Roblox

I don’t know if this will help you or not but I hope it does.

eh2iu · September 4, 2021, 1:07pm

Try it ,it will work lol because in your code you were searching door1.door1.

SteveoAttano · September 4, 2021, 7:11pm

Oh wow it does work can’t belive you wrote the whole script for me lol, thanks. I am gonna look at the difference between the two to see what I done wrong.

SteveoAttano · September 4, 2021, 7:30pm

Now the only problem is the Closing, it closes, but not the position I want it do despite me reversing what I did when I opened it if that makes sense.

MeteorxBG · September 4, 2021, 7:51pm

are you making a side sliding door? like when the prompt comes doors slide into the walls or sides.

SteveoAttano · September 4, 2021, 7:55pm

Their are two halfs of the door, one half goes one way along the X axis, and the other goes the other way. I want it to happen whenever I trigger a prompt.

MeteorxBG · September 4, 2021, 7:57pm

hmm, unfortunately im unable to understand what kind of a thing you want to achive. can you give me an example like a video or something?

MeteorxBG · September 4, 2021, 8:15pm

hey hey hey i think i might have found the problem.

you see these

local Door1OpenGoal = {Position = Door1.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,3.8)}
--Door1OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door1.Position.X, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Z + 3.8)

local Door2OpenGoal = {Position = Door2.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,-3.8)}
--Door2OpenGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door2.Position.X, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door2.Position.Z -3.8)

local Door1CloseGoal = {Position = Door1.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,-3.8)}
--Door1CloseGoal.Position = Vector3.new(script.Parent.Door1.Position.X, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Y, script.Parent.Door1.Position.Z - 3.8)

local Door2CloseGoal = {Position = Door2.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,3.8)}

turn the close goals to these

local Door1CloseGoal = {Position = Door1.Position}

local Door2CloseGoal = {Position = Door2.Position}

please try this to see if it fixes your problem.

SteveoAttano · September 5, 2021, 12:40am

Works perfectly thank you. ------------(had to put extra characters to respond)

MeteorxBG · September 5, 2021, 10:19pm

If there is something you’d like to ask, please ask. I would see if i can help .
