What is the best way to learn cframes and roblox physics constraints

So I’ve been scripting for 5-6 months now. I’ve basically gotten good at almost everything apart from CFrames, OOP (haven’t started yet), and physics constraints. So for CFrames I know the basic usage of it. Like setting a cframe, offsetting cframes, CFrame.lookat, lerping cframes, etc. But I struggle with the more advanced things like toobjectspace/worldspace, and lookvectors. I can’t really use lookvectors properly to be honest although I know they’re where the Z vector is facing of a basepart. I tried using the documentation but it’s pretty hard, could anyone link me the documentation’s tutorial on cframes I remember there was one. I’ve done some physics constraints but I am struggling with them, I only am really good at welds and none of the other mechanical constraints. I’ve tried using the documentation’s tutorial for mechanical constraints too. So my question is, what is the best way to learn them? (especially if you learnt them yourself well) and is there anyone who teaches CFrames/roblox constraints like a youtuber or a website? Thanks.

you can find functions like ToObjectSpace, WorldSpace… in roblox docs

ToObjectSpace

Yes but the problem is that it’s not that detailed or explained. I’ve already tried the documentation. It’s not enough.

Literally they only give you the parameters to write it, but they don’t explain properly what it does. They give answers like this: Question: “What does multiplying by 4 do?” Answer from docs: Multiplies by 4. I get that they might not have time to explain stuff properly and what not because there is alot of stuff, but c’mon. Putting a bit more effort wouldn’t hurt would it?

i just find these videos

Cframes

He also gets into the advanced things too like objectspace/worldspace? Oh I see he does.

What about constraints though? Anyone who properly teaches these? All I found was B ricey but he only taught like 2-4.

CFrames are 4x4 matrices, and that is linear algebra.

For physics constraints, you can use Arktal.

This is part 1 of his video, his 2nd part is in his description video

I saw one of his videos but the problem is the godamn music, why is he putting this on. Also, he’s not really teaching the scripting side though. But I guess it’s alright.

I wish I could mark both you and the cframe guy as the solution but it doesn’t allow me. But thanks both of you.

If you want the scripting side for physics constraints the only video I got is this

While yes, it only teaches you a few specific constraints used by cars, you can tweak and apply what you learned to make it fit other constraints. And it goes in detail of what the code does.

Well alright thank you buddy. A
