So this only happens sometimes, but whenever a player is ragdolled, and i try to do workspace:GetPartsInPart on their character, it doesn’t actually detect it (returns an empty array). I’ve made sure that the overlapParams include the player’s character and set the filtertype to include.
My hitbox looks like this:
I’ve also noticed that when I extend the hitboxes height downwards, the ragdolled character gets detected more often by GetPartsInPart.
The only idea I have of why the ragdolled character isn’t being detected is that the character is somehow X studs below the ground when ragdolled. However, when I tried creating parts at the character’s position, none of them are under the ground.
Does anyone have any idea why GetPartsInPart is not detecting the ragdolled character? Is something wrong with my ragdoll script? Or is this some Roblox thing? If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.
BTW if anyone wants to see my ragdoll (server) script:
--> Allows for proper limb collisions
local function createColliderPart(part: BasePart)
if not part then return end
local rp = Instance.new("Part")
rp.Name = "ColliderPart"
rp.Size = part.Size/1.7
rp.Massless = true
rp.CFrame = part.CFrame
rp.Transparency = 1
rp.CollisionGroup = "Ragdoll"
local wc = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
wc.Part0 = rp
wc.Part1 = part
wc.Parent = rp
rp.Parent = part
end
--> Converts Motor6D's into BallSocketConstraints
function replaceJoints()
--Humanoid.PlatformStand = true
Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Ragdoll,false)
Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown,false)
for _, motor: Motor6D in pairs(Torso:GetChildren()) do
if motor:IsA("Motor6D") then
if not attachmentCFrames[motor.Name] then return end
motor.Enabled = false;
local a0, a1 = Instance.new("Attachment"), Instance.new("Attachment")
a0.CFrame = attachmentCFrames[motor.Name][1]
a1.CFrame = attachmentCFrames[motor.Name][2]
a0.Name = "RagdollAttachment"
a1.Name = "RagdollAttachment"
createColliderPart(motor.Part1)
local b = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
b.Attachment0 = a0
b.Attachment1 = a1
b.Name = "RagdollConstraint"
b.Radius = 0.15
b.LimitsEnabled = true
b.TwistLimitsEnabled = false
b.MaxFrictionTorque = 0
b.Restitution = 0
b.UpperAngle = 90
b.TwistLowerAngle = -45
b.TwistUpperAngle = 45
if motor.Name == "Neck" then
b.TwistLimitsEnabled = true
b.UpperAngle = 45
b.TwistLowerAngle = -70
b.TwistUpperAngle = 70
end
a0.Parent = motor.Part0
a1.Parent = motor.Part1
b.Parent = motor.Parent
end
end
if script.DontSend.Value then
elseif Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
ClientRagdoll:FireAllClients(Character,true,nil,true)
else
ClientRagdoll:FireAllClients(Character,true)
end
Humanoid.AutoRotate = false --> Disabling AutoRotate prevents the Character rotating in first person or Shift-Lock
Character:SetAttribute("LastRag", tick())
end
