Hey,
I’m trying to make a realistic dodgeball throw but after a few throws its like it loses strength. I’m pretty sure its a client replication problem because its sometimes delayed.

Sometimes it will also play the throw animation but then the ball will drop to the ground like nothing happened then a second or two later go in the direction I clicked but not upwards. The throw gets delayed and less accurate every throw. Thanks for any help.
Server Script
local ThrowBallRm = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallRemoteEvents.ThrowBall
ThrowBallRm.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, mousePosition)
task.wait(.05) -- This wait is so that the ball is thrown at the height of the animation
local character = plr.Character
if character.Dodgeball:FindFirstChild("BallWeld") then
character.Dodgeball.BallWeld:Destroy()
print("Destroyed")
end
local ballPosition = character.Dodgeball.Position
local direction = (mousePosition - ballPosition).Unit
local impulseMultiplier = 400
local impulse = direction * impulseMultiplier
character.Dodgeball:ApplyImpulse(impulse)
character.Dodgeball.Parent = workspace
task.wait(1) -- This wait is so that the ball isn't immediatly picked back up when thrown
character.HasBall.Value = false
end)
Local Script
local cas = game:GetService("ContextActionService")

local throwAnimation = Instance.new("Animation")
throwAnimation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://102875433184499"

local throwAnimationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(throwAnimation)
local throwBallRM = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallRemoteEvents.ThrowBall
function throwBall(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
local mouse = localPlayer:GetMouse()
if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then

throwAnimationTrack:Play()

function chargeBall(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
