How to solve this speed-cap issue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So my parkour game has a speed-cap and I can’t really change that. And since the game has a speed-coil. I was wondering if there is a alternate way. Would it be possible to force a speed or give a player a helping-force in their direction?

EDIT1: Such as maybe velocity or something. So I don’t have to change the players actual WalkSpeed.

What do you mean by a speed-cap? How is it being set/stored?

#3

It’s mostly being done in the parkour script, a speed-cap that pretty much limits their speed to say about 20 or so at default.

Heres the main stuff:


	self.standSpeed = 20
	self.crouchSpeed = 10
	self.airSpeed = 25
	self.swimSpeed = 20

function moveSet:update(dt)
	self._fallTimer = (self:isFalling() and not self._isDiving) and self._fallTimer + dt or 0
	self._outOfWaterTimer = not self:isSwimming() and self._outOfWaterTimer + dt or 0

	if (self._isDiving) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.diveSpeed
	elseif (self._isLongJumping) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.longJumpSpeed
	elseif (self:inAir()) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.airSpeed
	elseif (self:isSwimming()) then
		self:setCrouch(false)
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.swimSpeed
	else
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self._isCrouching and self.crouchSpeed or self.standSpeed
	end

	self.physBall:update(dt)
	if (self.physBall._floorMaterial == Enum.Material.Water) then
		self:cancelDive()
	end

	self.humanoid:Move(self.humanControl:getWorldMoveDirection(), false)

	self._canTilt = not NO_STANCE_CHANGE[self.humanoid:GetState()] and self:isMoving()

	self:tiltToMovement(dt)
	self:slowFall(dt)

	self.particles:setParticleEnabled("airTrail", self:inAir() and ((self._isDiving and not self.physBall.isGrounded) or self._isLongJumping))
	self.particles:setParticleEnabled("floorParticle", (not self:inAir() or self._isDiving and self.physBall.isGrounded) and self:isMoving() and not NO_STANCE_CHANGE[self.humanoid:GetState()], "3D")
end

I tried doing this to the last else check, it started to work but it seemed to stop working after a short bit. Any help?


	if (self._isDiving) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.diveSpeed
	elseif (self._isLongJumping) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.longJumpSpeed
	elseif (self:inAir()) then
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.airSpeed
	elseif (self:isSwimming()) then
		self:setCrouch(false)
		self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self.swimSpeed
	elseif not self.humanoid.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool") then
		if not self.humanoid.Parent:FindFirstChild("Speed Coil") then
			self.humanoid.WalkSpeed = self._isCrouching and self.crouchSpeed or self.standSpeed
		end		
	end
