Can't set humanoid walkspeed to an IntValue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’ve been trying to change humanoid walkspeed to an intvalue found in replicatedstorage however it doesn’t seem to work and still uses the default walking speed (16)

local speed = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild(Character.Name):WaitForChild("Speed")
--Localscript in StarterCharacterScripts.
local Character = script.Parent
while true do
  Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = speed.Value
end
#2

Replace while true do with while speed.Changed:Wait() do.

#3

Sadly doesn’t work, the character still spawns with default walking speed. (16)

#4

They do because the value wasn’t changed yet.

Add a line to the top of the script:
local firstRun = true

Then, replace your while speed.Changed:Wait() do with while speed.Changed:Wait() or firstRun do

Then, add firstRun = false in the loop.

Tried it and it still doesn’t work.

local speed = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Stats"):WaitForChild("WalkSpeed")
local Character = script.Parent
local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local firstRun = true


while speed.Changed:Wait() or firstRun do
	Humanoid.WalkSpeed = speed.Value
	firstRun = false
end
#6

Okay, remove the firstRun stuff. Try while Character.Parent do and add a line at the end of the loop speed.Changed:Wait(). Add a line at the top of the script that says task.wait(0.5) (used to prevent replication failures).

If you want it to run when it changes, use GetPropertyChangedSignal.

-- assuming this is all in the same script located in the character --
local Character = script.Parent
local speed = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild(Character.Name):WaitForChild("Speed")
local humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local function update()
    humanoid.WalkSpeed = speed.Value
end
speed:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(update)
update()

Figured out it was a different script causing this, i don’t know why this sprint script is so buggy.

Wait this is a sprint script? All of this should be done in one script in that case.
