Why wont it change the walkspeed?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

In my script, I try and change the walkspeed of the player. Here is the line:

player.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0

This is in a proximity prompt and that is how I got the player. I dont know why but this will not do anything

Try this:

local proximityprompt = script.Parent
proximityprompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
    local Humanoid = player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
end)

Try using :WaitForChild() instead of :FindFirstChild(). :FindFirstChild() has been very unreliable in my experience.

local proximityprompt = script.Parent
proximityprompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
    local Humanoid = player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
    Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
end)

It is in a proximityprompt inside of a model inside of the workspace and yes, it is a script not a localscript. One more thing. when I print out what the walkspeed of the player is it says the walkspeed is 0 when it says the player walkspeed is 16. It is supposed to be 0
