Why does fireball not go to position

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

The fireball just falls down but then very slowly goes to the position

local BP = Instance.new("BodyPosition")
					BP.Parent = Cloned_Meteoroid

					BP.D = 0
					BP.P = 0.001
					BP.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
					
					local BG = Instance.new("BodyGyro")
					BG.Parent = Cloned_Meteoroid

					BG.CFrame = Cloned_Meteoroid.CFrame

					local SelectedPos = Vector3.new(math.random(612,786),285.5,math.random(-760,-654))

					BP.Position = SelectedPos

NOTE: I need to make it 0.001 for the “P” value cause it would go through floor if i didnt

#2

Try adding a higher value for BodyPosition | Roblox Creator Documentation its probably very slow because the power being applied is very low

#3

If I do, It’ll just go through the floor

#4

Try changing the Physics Material of the Meteoroid. A density of near-0 would make it easier for the physics to lift.

#5

wdym lift? there is enough power but its just not going towards the right direction

#6

How do you verify that you know which spot is the right position

#7 
local SelectedPos = Vector3.new(math.random(612,786),285.5,math.random(-760,-654))

I print it

#8

Yes but there’s a random number for X and Y how can you tell where its suppose to go

#9

i print the position of the part and seletedpos

#10

I thought you wanted it to not just fall down?

As is, the gravity in the world is constantly applying a force that pushes the object towards the ground. Without counter-acting that force, the unanchored object will always be trying to move downwards.

#11

so how would i fix? the density?

#12

The density helps, yes.

But it’s not full-proof. You might also need to apply another force to it. It depends on what physics you have being applied to the object.

But as-is, the easiest way to allow physics objects to affect a part is to reduce it’s density to near-0.

#13

it still goes to the same location

#14

I’m confused on what the problem you wanted to solve was is it still

or is it

I’m confused

#15

So I give the meteoroid a random position, and it only goes down until it hits the floor then it very slowly goes toward the position

I want to make a meteoroid spawn in the middle and curve a little of it falls realisticly

#16

I don’t think you will achieve that effect with what you’re currently doing I think your looking like a parabola

Ok, it works now but it goes too fast

#18

Can i ask what did you change?

#19

I changed the bodyposition power

#20

Then you would just need to lower the power till you find the desired amount
