How do I stop a player from moving? (walking / jumping)

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

lately i’m working on a power simulator and i made a script that adds power when the player activates the pushup “Tool” and with that i have to temporarily stop his walking / jumping.

I already have a script that executes this, but if the player constantly changes tools the speed and the player’s jump will always be 0.

This is the script I have…

Pushups.Activated:Connect(function()

local Hum = Pushups.Parent.Humanoid

local OldSpeed = Hum.WalkSpeed
local OldJump = Hum.JumpPower

if not debounce then
debounce = true

Hum.WalkSpeed = 0
Hum.JumpPower = 0

local Ani = Hum:LoadAnimation(script.SpeedTraning)

local Power = game.Players[Pushups.Parent.Name].leaderstats.Power
Power.Value = Power.Value + 199


Ani:Play()	
Ani.Stopped:Wait()

Hum.WalkSpeed = OldSpeed
Hum.JumpPower = OldJump

debounce = false
end
end)

I want to know how you guys would make this script. and if it has a function of “Locking” the walk and the jump without the method of setting it to 0.

I would combine setting the speed and jump power to 0 and anchoring the HumanoidRootPart.

I think it would affect my animation. and I already have it but when the player changes tools quickly when the animation is playing at speed and the jump locks at “0”.

#4

It doesn’t affect the animation at all. Anchoring the HumanoidRootPart only make it not be able to move or be pushed by other players.

I made a thread asking this and got solved, check it out:

--This is a LocalScript
local Controls = require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls()---GetControls

Controls:Disable()

I need this in a Script but the Script does not detect PlayerScrips

I think you can check when the player has entered and do everything else in the server.

There are multiple ways of doing this. I like to use ContextActionService for this:

local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local FreezeAc= "freezeMovement"

ContextActionService:BindAction(
    FreezeAc,
    function()
        return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink
    end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.PlayerActions:GetEnumItems()))

To give back movement just UnbindAction
If you want you can also set JP/WS to 0
