Help with body velocity

[catxkdb]

I made it so when the combo of an attack is 5, the victim will get knocked back. However, ONLY the body velocity doesn’t work, everything else does. Please help.
Script:

local f = Instance.new("BodyVelocity",v.HumanoidRootPart)
f.Name = "PushForce"
f.MaxForce = Vector3.new(100000000,100000000,100000000)
f.Velocity = (-v.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector) * 100
wait(0.25)
f:Destroy()
v.Humanoid:TakeDamage(dmg.Value*2)
Combo.Value -= Combo.Value

Usually its a network ownership and humanoid problem which prevents knockback from working. This method should guarantee both don’t interfere. If there is any other better method let me know since it seems to be a common problem.

Is there any way to make this knockback smoother/less laggy?

So I have done some testing since this is a frequent recurring and interesting topic. So I have done testing with the server network ownership method, the only cons I see is that it’s not smooth for the victim perspective. Video testing, with 0.25 seconds incoming network replication lag: Video uses: .AssemblyLinearVelocity += knockbackVelocity (simple instantaneous velocity method) Humanoid platformstand (to disable humanoid physics interference) Network ownership on serve…
