How About This?
local LP = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = LP.Character
local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local Check = function()
if Humanoid.WalkSpeed > 50 then
Character.Head:FindFirstChild("Trail").Enabled = true
elseif Humanoid.WalkSpeed < 50 then
if Character.Head:FindFirstChild("Trail") then
Character.Head:FindFirstChild("Trail").Enabled = false
end
end
end
while task.wait(0.25) do
Check()
end
hey, this didnt work for me, i dont think the script is broken but i think it just doesnt enable the trails.
output:
this is another script in startercharacterscripts, deleting it doesnt work but i think firing the remoteevent is important which we left out
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or script.Parent

lastly, probably unimportant, is the script which speeds me up. its probably unnecesary but im posting it just in case its important.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character
local hum = char.Humanoid
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local speed = game.ReplicatedStorage.Speed.Value
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, isTyping)
if isTyping then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
speed = true
while speed == true do
if hum.WalkSpeed == 250 then break end
hum.WalkSpeed = hum.WalkSpeed + 1
wait()
end
end
end)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, isTyping)
if isTyping then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
speed = false
repeat
if speed == true then break end
hum.WalkSpeed = hum.WalkSpeed - 1
wait()
until
hum.WalkSpeed == 16
end
end)
yes in my demo the trail was enabled and disabled locally so its only visible locally and other players wont see the trails getting enabled or disabled
if you want others to see the trails then you will have to enable or disable them on a normal script on the server side
this can be done with remote events or the server could keep track of the characters speed and enable and disable them without remote events or another option is each client keeps track on all characters speed
How do I disable and enable the remote event tho? I know about the launch remoteevent thing but that’s what I used to do, with it being impossible to shut it off afterwards under 50 speed
You send the remote event like this to the server then the server will enable or disable the trails
local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
-- get the character
local character = script.Parent
-- get the root part
local rootPart = character.HumanoidRootPart
-- set enabled to false by default
local enabled = false
runService.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
-- get the characters speed
local speed = rootPart.AssemblyLinearVelocity.Magnitude
if speed < 50 then
-- if the speed is less then 50 and enabled is already false then just exit the function and do nothing
if enabled == false then return end
enabled = false
else
-- if the speed is more or equal to 50 and enabled is already true then just exit the function and do nothing
if enabled == true then return end
enabled = true
end
remoteEvent:FireServer(enabled)
print("Trails:", enabled)
end)
do character:GetDescendants() instead of GetChildren, also wrap the loop with
spawn(function()
end)
that way the remote event also fires
i tried this and added the remoteevent directory, tho this adds the trails each time the player reaches speed 50 and doesnt remove them when they go under it, so basically it keeps adding more and more trails.
local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
-- get the character
local character = script.Parent
-- get the root part
local rootPart = character.HumanoidRootPart
-- set enabled to false by default
local enabled = false
local remoteevent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
runService.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
-- get the characters speed
local speed = rootPart.AssemblyLinearVelocity.Magnitude
if speed < 50 then
-- if the speed is less then 50 and enabled is already false then just exit the function and do nothing
if enabled == false then return end
enabled = false
else
-- if the speed is more or equal to 50 and enabled is already true then just exit the function and do nothing
if enabled == true then return end
enabled = true
end
remoteevent:FireServer(enabled)
print("Trails:", enabled)
end)
cant you reuse the same trails over and over again and simply do trail.Enabled = enabled to enable or disable them?
so you will use the CharacterAdded to add the trails to the character then inside the remote event you will enable or disable them but not create new ones
how would i do that without having to loop it?
How are you currently adding trails to the character?
this is the remoteevent script

i should also add, the particles should appear and dissapear with the trails but its currently broken so i didnt add it in this topic

end)

-- when the player sends a event enable or disable the trails
for i, trail in trails[player] do

end
end)
what am i supposed to change to match the amount of trails i already had?
what if we were to launch the remoteevent on player join but with the trails and particles disabled and then enable and disable with the speed script?
