I have a glove script, and I’ve been getting people reporting that when they are slapped, they die randomly. I am assuming it’s the BodyVelocity, since I was once playing my game and I saw someone slap another person while they were on the floor and that person they slapped, suddenly died. But I also sometimes get normally slapped by someone, and I die randomly too. I really need some help.
Glove’s server script
playerslapped.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, targetedplayer, humanoid, targetedchar)
if not slap.IsPlaying then
slap:Play()
end
local targetHumanoid = targetedplayer:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local playerHumanoid = player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
if targetHumanoid and playerHumanoid then
local targetedplayerinstance = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(targetedplayer)
local velocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity",targetedplayer.HumanoidRootPart)
velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(4,4,4) * math.huge
local dir = (targetedplayer.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position - player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Unit
velocity.Velocity = (dir + Vector3.new(0,0.7,0)).Unit *script.Parent.GloveStatsConfig.Power.Value
local rot = Instance.new("BodyAngularVelocity",targetedplayer.HumanoidRootPart)
rot.AngularVelocity = Vector3.new(1,2,1) * math.pi * 5
rot.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(2,5,2) * math.huge
rot.P = 5000
targetedplayer.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics)
ragdollmodule.Ragdoll(targetedplayer, targetedplayerinstance)
game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(velocity, 0.7)
game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(rot,0.7)
task.wait(3)
ragdollmodule.Stand(targetedplayer, targetedplayerinstance, targetedplayer.Humanoid)
task.wait(0.5)
if targetedchar:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local a = targetedchar
for _, instance in pairs(targetedchar:GetDescendants()) do
if instance:IsA("BallSocketConstraint") then
found = true
end
end
if found == nil then
targetedplayer.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics)
else
ragdollmodule.Stand(targetedplayer, targetedplayerinstance, targetedplayer.Humanoid)
targetedplayer.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics)
found = nil
end
end
end
end)
You seem to be using a lot of velocity here: velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(4,4,4) * math.huge
Is it possible you are breaking the players neck weld which kills the player?
I can’t be sure but if you’re using R6 there is currently a bug that causes them to die for no reason using a combination of BallSocketConstraints. Disable BreakJointsOnDeath and it should virtually fix the issue, since you will still hear the death sound.
Just play around with the value in your maxforce.
Lower it to just a small amount and see if that stops the player from dying. If so then only put enough maxforce to achieve the result you want.
It’s similar to putting a 1200 horsepower engine in a Yugo. It might work, but something’s going to break when you stomp your foot on the gas pedal!
Alright, I tried your idea. I put it to Vector3.new(2, 2, 2) instead and I also disabled BreakJointsOnDeath. Didn’t recieve any problems from testing, but if this works successfully in a regular server I will let you know. Thanks!
In addition to my previous post, I don’t believe that this bug occurs if you make the script a LocalScript (if it isn’t already), so if you still hear that death sound and it still causes issues, you can try making the script local.
If they’re disappearing, it’s probably because of the max force but the root cause is probably because you are using the Vector3.Unit variable, which does not accept a value of zero.
