Working on ship Scripts and I need the guns to spin

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I need to get the guns on my ship to spin, the whole ship is welded together I can rotate the guns using the roblox dev command bar.

workspace["USS Ranger Smells"].Gun3.Rotation.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,50,0)

However the same code in a script just doesn’t move the guns, no error and no movement I know the script gets that far as I have print statements above and below. I tried editing the CFrames of the weld to make the gun spin.

script.Parent.Gun3.Rotation.Weld.C0 = ( script.Parent.Gun3.Rotation.CFrame ):inverse()
script.Parent.Gun3.Rotation.Weld.C1 = ( script.Parent.Gun3.Rotation.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(x),0)):inverse()

Which kind of worked but was very jerky any solutions?

Thanks in advanced,

I’m on mobile so bad formatting, but something like this is what I use.

Local model = —define here

While wait() do
model:SetPrimaryPartCframe(model.PrimaryPary.CFrame * Cframe.Angles(0, math.rad(2), 0))

end

I will give it a try now, :crossed_fingers: it works

#4

Nope absolutely no movement at all.

This is the model layout using welds to keep the ship together and weld constraints for the gun.
