Custom player roll forward animation issue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi,

I am trying to code a new animation of a forward roll, the issue I am facing is getting the root part in the correct place is it does not move with the animation.

I am moving the camera with the player’s head and moving the root to the upper torso but the player ends up in the floor.

I have tried moving the Y position but this does not appear to help.

Am I doing this correctly or is there another way? I have made the root visible so I can see what its doing.

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local char = script.Parent
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local head = char:WaitForChild("Head")
local root = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
root.Transparency = 0
local torso = char:WaitForChild("UpperTorso")
local animPlay = hum:LoadAnimation(script:WaitForChild("Animation"))
local canCrawl = false
animPlay:AdjustSpeed(0)

hum.Running:Connect(function(speed)
	if speed > 0 then
		animPlay:AdjustSpeed(1)
	else
		animPlay:AdjustSpeed(0)
	end
end)

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then
		if not canCrawl then
			canCrawl = true
			hum.HipHeight = 3
			hum.WalkSpeed = 4
			hum.JumpPower = 0
			--if hum.MoveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then
				animPlay:Play()
			--end
			game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraSubject = head
			animPlay.Stopped:Wait()
			root.Position = Vector3.new(torso.Position.X, torso.Position.Y, torso.Position.Z)
		else
			canCrawl = false
			hum.HipHeight = 3
			hum.WalkSpeed = 16
			hum.JumpPower = 50
			animPlay:Stop()
		end
	end
end)
