PostSubject: CFrame: Positioning and Rotating   CFrame: Positioning and Rotating EmptyNovember 14th 2010, 4:13 am

Many people do not understand how to rotate a brick through a script. To rotate a brick, we use CFrame.
Normally CFrame just positions a brick, but by adding a few extra words, it can also rotate bricks.
We do this by adding *CFrame.Angles(0,0,0) after we CFrame a brick to its position.
(Replace 0,0,0 with the rotation angle you want)
p = Instance.new("Part")
p.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, 10, 0)*CFrame.Angles(0,0,0)
The first part Positions, the second part rotates. You do not need to put *CFrame.Angles to use CFrame, CFrame can also be used just for positioning bricks. I hope you learned something from my tutorial.

It can be a size or position. Pretty much anything that can be classified as 3D

So pretty much ROBLOX added an extra command? I think there's more to that.

Cframe puts an object somewhere no matter what else is there. Vector3, when used to position something, places as close to the place you specify, raising the Y value until it can fit.

he forgot to tell us that the angles were in radians. :P
to convert degrees to radians you can do math.rad(degrees) or (math.pi*2)/(360/degrees)

to convert radians to degrees you can do math.deg(radians) or 360/((math.pi*2)/radians)
