Is there a script to put in an axle to make this occur?

[sandhaul]

hi everyone, sorry if you've seen me everywhere, i just wanted to ask, is there a script that you can put in an axle to make it rotate to a particular angle, and by hotkey; also when you press that hotkey again it goes back to the original spot? i only ask this so I can make a transformer for myself, and my friend, and also make something simply rotate to a particular angle, like 90 degree or 140 degree, thank you everyone!

Not hard. Just use BendTarget.

can you give me the script to put into it?

In hinge's script menu:

Code: Select all

bend = true;
bendTarget = 1;
bendConstant = 50000;
motorTorque = 50000;
onKey = (e) => {e.pressed ? {
  e.keyCode == "a" ? {
    bendTarget == 1 ? {bendTarget =2}:{bendTarget = 1}
  }:{}
}:{}}

Thanks, kilinich!

how do i set what angle it can bend to? thank you.

[Kilinich]

bendTarget is angle in radians.
You could add some constant variables to store angles:

Code: Select all

_angle1 = math.pi /4;
_angle2 = math.pi /2;
bend = true;
bendTarget = _angle1;
bendConstant = 50000;
motorTorque = 50000;
onKey = (e) => {e.pressed ? {
  e.keyCode == "a" ? {
    bendTarget == _angle1 ? {bendTarget = _angle2}:{bendTarget = _angle1}
  }:{}
}:{}}

thanks kilinich.
