Dive Script [HELP]

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

I’ve tried and failed miserably so I was wondering if anyone can / knows how to do this.

I have a script and whenever you press R the Player Rolls based on the key their holding. However, it works while the player is in the air. I was wondering if anyone knows how to make it so the rolling doesn’t activate on the ground, and; if it can work the same functionally but play a single, separate animation, that only goes forward. Which will be a dive:

I’ve made some progress on the script but for some reason the player rolls after the player dives. Anyone know why?

It looks like you are running the dive event, and then immediately after the script is running the second event. Forming this into an “if else” would hopefully resolve that issue.

if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then
    if not DivingDeb and isInAir() then
    -- dive logic
    elseif DashDeb == false and Char:FindFirstChild("Deb") == nil then
    -- dash logic
end
