Welds break on respawn

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi, I have a module where it edits a character’s weld. It works usually, but when a player respawns, it breaks and doesn’t give any erorrs.

The module script:

function Tween.TweenWeld(TargetLimb, StartCFrame, CFrame0, EasingDirection, EasingStyle, Duration)
	local weldExists = false
	local weld = nil
	local appendiges = {RA, LA, RL, LL, Head}

	local correspondingJoints = {Torso:WaitForChild("Right Shoulder" , .2), Torso:WaitForChild("Left Shoulder"  , .2), Torso:WaitForChild("Right Hip"  , .2), Torso:WaitForChild("Left Hip"  , .2), Torso:WaitForChild("Neck"  , .2)}

	local EndCFrame = {}
	EndCFrame.C0 = CFrame0 

	local Info = TweenInfo.new(Duration,EasingStyle,EasingDirection)

	for _, v in pairs(Torso:GetChildren()) do
		if v.Name == "Weld" and v.Part1.Name == TargetLimb then
			weldExists = true
			weld = v
		end
	end

	if not weldExists then
		weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	end 

	for i,v in pairs(appendiges) do
		if TargetLimb == v.Name then
			correspondingJoints[i].Part1 = nil

			weld.Parent = Torso
			weld.Part0 = Torso
			weld.Part1 = v
			weld.C0 = StartCFrame
			local Animation = TweenService:Create(weld, Info, EndCFrame)
			Animation:Play()
			EditLimb:Fire("Tween" , TargetLimb, StartCFrame, CFrame0, EasingDirection, EasingStyle, Duration)
		end
	end
end

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Can you give more context on what the script is used for and its purpose?

Ok, here is a sample code of what I use this module for:

local Direction = Enum.EasingDirection.Out
local Style = Enum.EasingStyle.Sine

local CFRAME_HERE_RL = CFrame.new(0.5,-1.5,-0.7) *  CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0.64,0,0)
local CFRAME_HERE_LL = CFrame.new(-0.5,-1.5,-0.7) *  CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0.64,0,0) 

Tween.TweenWeld("Right Leg", CFrame.new(0.5,-2,0), CFRAME_HERE_RL, Direction, Style, 0)

If you want more code, just ask.

I meant like what were you trying to accomplish. I don’t need the code. I’m just confused why you’re trying to edit the player’s welds.

Because I want to move the players leg for example, to a specific c-frame smoothly, so I use welds along with tweens, and also so other players can see the players tween.

If you’re trying to animate the legs, then I’d suggest just making an animation rather than editing the player’s legs.

It is simpler to tween the players legs rather than to make an animation for every single script I have though.

im not completely sure i understand what you’re doing but would using Motor6D.Transform do what you’re trying to accomplish?

Everything works… it just that the module breaks when you respawn the character, and I was looking for some help on how I could solve it.

#10

I literally have no idea what any of this means, but I’m assuming the script cant run when the character loads as it still thinks the older one is in workspace. I may be horribly wrong though.

#11

how do i tackle this? I think this may be the issue as the module is in replicatedstorage

#12

You can probably re-run the TweenWeld function when they respawn, I don’t know though

#13

I ended up fixing it by running RunService.Stepped:Wait() at the top of the module, thanks for the help everyone.
