Disclaimer, yes I did look for posts like this and either they didnt work or are well outdated so they also didnt work.

So, how do I make a ragdoll and unragdoll script?

BallSocketConstraints.

for _, Motor6D in ipairs(Character:GetDescendants()) do
	if Motor6D:IsA("Motor6D") then
		Motor6D.Enabled = false; 
		local BallSocket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
		local Attachment1 = Instance.new("Attachment")
		local Attachment2 = Instance.new("Attachment")
		Attachment1.CFrame = Motor6D.C0
		Attachment2.CFrame = Motor6D.C1
		Attachment1.Parent = Motor6D.Part0
		Attachment2.Parent = Motor6D.Part1
		BallSocket.LimitsEnabled = true;
		BallSocket.TwistLimitsEnabled = true;
		BallSocket.Attachment0 = Attachment1
		BallSocket.Attachment1 = Attachment2
		BallSocket.Parent = Motor6D.Parent
	end
end

I’m sure there are better ways to do this, but thats how I did it.

If you want to “unragdoll” again, you disable the BallSocketConstraints and enable the motor6d’s again

I still use EchoReaper’s ragdoll script to this day. You could use it as well or use it as a basis to create your own if it doesn’t suit your needs.

Ps for those who want It I created a function that will ragdoll a character, it just requires a bool value to see if it should ragdoll or to unragdoll.

local function ragdoll(doRagdoll,Character:Model)
	if doRagdoll then
		for _, Motor6D in ipairs(Character:GetDescendants()) do
			if Motor6D:IsA("Motor6D") then
				if not Motor6D:FindFirstChildOfClass('BallSocketConstraint') then
					Motor6D.Enabled = false
					local BallSocket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
					local Attachment1 = Instance.new("Attachment")
					local Attachment2 = Instance.new("Attachment")
					Attachment1.CFrame = Motor6D.C0
					Attachment2.CFrame = Motor6D.C1
					Attachment1.Parent = Motor6D.Part0
					Attachment2.Parent = Motor6D.Part1
					BallSocket.LimitsEnabled = true;
					BallSocket.TwistLimitsEnabled = true;
					BallSocket.Attachment0 = Attachment1
					BallSocket.Attachment1 = Attachment2
					BallSocket.Parent = Motor6D.Parent
				else
					Motor6D:FindFirstChildOfClass('BallSocketConstraint').Enabled = true
					Motor6D.Enabled = false
				end
			end
		end
	else
		for _, Motor6D in ipairs(Character:GetDescendants()) do
			if Motor6D:IsA("Motor6D") then
				Motor6D.Enabled = true
				
				if Motor6D:FindFirstChildOfClass('BallSocketConstraint') then
					Motor6D:FindFirstChildOfClass('BallSocketConstraint').Enabled = false
				end
			end
		end
	end
end
