Can't change the HipHeight property of humanoid

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m trying to change the character’s HipHeight when the player joins the game, because some of my animations have the player floating if i don’t adjust it. I Have tried using the following code:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
		local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		Humanoid.HipHeight = 2.1
	end)
end)

It isn’t working for some reason, and i don’t get any error messages on the output. Btw this is a Server script on ServerScriptService. Thanks in advance :smiley:

If you don’t get any errors, try adding a print() to see if it’s even running properly.

I’m not receiving any output from the print(). Maybe the problem is in calling the function?

I tested it in the same circumstances as you and it works, It is not necessarily the contents of the scripts that is the problem I think.

Weird. I also tested changing the HipHeight through the Properties tab in the explorer while running the game and it worked, so it isn’t a glitch with my character. I’ll see if maybe something is wrong with my place. Thanks!

Update: apparently the game was loading the default HipHeight after i set it to 2.1, so my solution was to add a wait(1) before changing it. It’s not ideal, but it works.
