BodyVelocity not applying force evenly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m trying to create a script that forces the player to move forward. But the force isn’t being applied evenly, it seems as though it’s unable to apply force directly on an axis and it only moves diagonally.

The following is a LocalScript in StarterCharacterScripts:

local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local player = PlayerService.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local rootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local RUSH_DURATION = 3
local RUSH_TOKENS = 5
local RUSH_COOLDOWN = 2

local blightState = "default"
local currentTokens = 5

local bodyVelocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
bodyVelocity.Parent = rootPart
bodyVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(0,0,0)

RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
	if blightState == "rushing" then
		bodyVelocity.Velocity = rootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 32
	end
end)

function stateCheck()
	if blightState == "default" then
		if currentTokens == RUSH_TOKENS then
			blightState = "rushing"
			Rush()
		end
	end
end

function Rush()
	bodyVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(9000,0,9000)
	wait(RUSH_DURATION)
	blightState = "default"
	bodyVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
end

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
		stateCheck()
	end
end)
