Why does it return 0?

[youko1230 (twixi)]

So I am tweening the camera rotation;

tService:Create(camera, TweenInfo.new(0.7, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.In), {CFrame = CFrame.new(camera.CFrame.Position, Vector3.new(camera.CFrame.Rotation.X, math.rad(-172.461), camera.CFrame.Rotation.Z))}):Play()

and it always tweens to the same spot so I wanted to check out what the X and Y prints with this script:

print(math.rad(camera.CFrame.Rotation.X))

and it seems it always returns 0, why?

here is an example video

Why does Rotation.X,Y,Z always Return 0?

LS.C0 is a Cframe. CFrame.Rotation returns a copy of the cframe except the position is set to 0, 0, 0, thus indexing Rotation.X would return 0, and the same for .Y and .Z. To actually get its rotation values, you can use :ToEulerAnglesXYZ() or :ToEulerAnglesYXZ(). Both of them returns 3 numbers. The former returns the values of the angles as if the rotations were applied in X->Y->Z order, while the latter is if the angles were applied in Y->X->Z order, similar to the Orientation property you se…
