Disabling shift lock spontaneously for a player without locking their mouse

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m working on a theme park Queue System, and when a player enters the automated cue I set their CameraMinZoomDistance to 5 and turn off their Shift Lock so that they can’t spin around and are forced to face the right direction. (I can’t just disable auto-rotate because they need to be able to turn around barriers)

The issue I’m facing is that if they have shift lock enabled when they walk into the cue, the script turns it off and the icon disappears yet the controls just act like the player is in first person

Here is a video of what happens:

This is the code I am using to disable the player's shift lock. 
QueueEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player,Event,Ride) 
	if Ride == RIDE_NAME then
		if Event == "LeaveQueue" then
			local OccupiedSpot = FindPointWithOccupant(Player.Name)
			if OccupiedSpot then
				OccupiedSpot.Occupant.Value = ""
				OccupiedSpot.Occupied.Value = false
				ToPoint(Player,Exit)
				Player.DevEnableMouseLock = true -- This is where shiftlock is disabled
				Player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 0
			end
		end
	end
end)

Any help is appreciated!

To lock/unlock the camera by using the following code:

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
-- lock the mouse
UIS.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter 
-- unlock the mouse
UIS.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
