How can I make it so you can jump midair while doing a roll

#1

I’m trying to make a roll mechanic for my game.
The roll script does work, however I wanna make it so that when you’re rolling, you can jump out of the roll animation, while keeping the velocity from rolling.

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character
local humanoid = char:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if humanoid then
	local slideAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
	slideAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12868749863"

	local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift
	local canslide = true

	UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameprocessed)
		if gameprocessed then return end
		if not canslide then return end
		if humanoid.FloorMaterial == Enum.Material.Air then return end
		if input.KeyCode == keybind then
			canslide = false

			local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(slideAnim)
			playAnim:Play()
			local sound = Instance.new('Sound')
			sound.Name = "bob"
			sound.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart
			sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://7545317681"
			sound:Play()

			local slide = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
			slide.MaxForce = Vector3.new(0.5,0,0.5) * 30000
			slide.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 70
			slide.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart

			for count = 1, 15 do
				wait(0.01)
				slide.Velocity*= 0.9
			end
			playAnim:Stop()
			slide:Destroy()
			canslide = true
		end
	end)

end

(the script is in startercharacterscripts)

Interesting concept!

I suggest, inside the for loop, use a function to see if the player has jumped during this time where the velocity is being handled and break the loop immediately after the jump has concluded.

#3

so in the for loop, should i use something like

UIS.JumpRequest:Connect(function(
break
*funny code*
end)

or something similar?

#4

You make a state for rolling, and when the jump function gets called, check the state.

#5 
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
local jumps = 0
local max = 2
local isjump = false
local currenttick = tick()
local db = false
if humanoid then
	local slideAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
	slideAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12868749863"
	local jumpAnim = Instance.new('Animation')
	jumpAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12886271444"
	local function onstateChanged(oldstate,newstate)
		
		
		if Enum.HumanoidStateType.Landed == newstate then
			print('LANDED')
			wait(0.2)
			jumps = 0
			db = false
		end
		
		if Enum.HumanoidStateType.Freefall == newstate then
			wait(0.2)
			db = true
				print('fall')
		end
		
			
		if Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping == newstate then
			db = false
			jumps +=1
				print('jumping')
		end
	end
	local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(slideAnim)
	local function onJump()
		local jumpanimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(jumpAnim)
		if humanoid.FloorMaterial == Enum.Material.Air then return end
		if db == false then
			slideAnim:Destroy()
			jumpanimation:Play()
			if jumps < max and tick() > 0.2 then
				currenttick = tick()
				humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping)
			end
		end
	end
	

	local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift
	local canslide = true

	UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameprocessed)
		if gameprocessed then return end
		if not canslide then return end
		if humanoid.FloorMaterial == Enum.Material.Air then
			return
		end
		if input.KeyCode == keybind then
			canslide = false

			local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(slideAnim)
			playAnim:Play()
			local sound = Instance.new('Sound')
			sound.Name = "bob"
			sound.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart
			sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://7545317681"
			sound:Play()

			local slide = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
			slide.MaxForce = Vector3.new(0.5,0,0.5) * 30000
			slide.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 70
			slide.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart
			UIS.JumpRequest:Connect(onJump)
			humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(onstateChanged)

			for count = 1, 15 do
				wait(0.01)
				slide.Velocity*= 0.9
			end
			playAnim:Stop()
			slide:Destroy()
			canslide = true
		end
	end)

end

i made it so you can jump out of the roll now, but im still stumped on making it jump while midair and keeping the velocity.

#6 
	local function onJump()
		local jumpanimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(jumpAnim)
		if db == false and isrolling == true then
			slideAnim:Destroy()
			jumpanimation:Play()
			local slide2 = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
			slide2.MaxForce = Vector3.new(0.5,0,0.5) * 30000
			slide2.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 50
			slide2.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart
			
			
			for count = 1,10 do
				wait(0.05)
				slide2.Velocity *= 0.9
			end
			slide2:Destroy()
			if jumps < max and tick() > 0.2 then
				currenttick = tick()
				
			end
		end
	end

a bit of progress, but now the velocity can almost be kept when you roll-jump, but the velocity doesn’t really apply if you dont jump at the end of the roll.
