How to change the player's walkspeed through a script?

Have you tried adding the player character first before using the plr parameter?

I’m trying to use remote events now:

local rep = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local SpinnerWalkSpeed = rep.WalkSpeedEvents:WaitForChild("SpinnerWalkSpeer")
local DefWalkSpeed = rep.WalkSpeedEvents:WaitForChild("DefWalkSpeed")

SpinnerWalkSpeed.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local char = player.CharacterAdded:wait()
	local h = char.Humanoid

	h.WalkSpeed = 0
	h.JumpPower = 80
end)

DefWalkSpeed.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local char = player.CharacterAdded:wait()
	local h = char.Humanoid

	h.WalkSpeed = 16
	h.JumpPower = 50
end)

But this isn’t working either…
Please help

Please elaborate further, thanks! :slight_smile:

#14 
local function SpinnerWalkSpeed(plr)
	local humanoid = plr.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
		humanoid.JumpPower = 80
	end
end

local function DefaultWalkSpeed(plr)
	local humanoid = plr.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
		humanoid.JumpPower = 50
	end
end

In the script shown above, how are you passing the arguments through to the functions?

#15

What are you passing as “plr”? The actual player, or the player’s character?

#17

Has anyone solved this post yet? Because i think I know something that might work

#19

I already got the script working. Just waiting for his response.

Oops okay! than i will delete before he is stressing out :smiley:

#22

Sorry for the wait! Been busy.
This doesn’t seem to be working… The character’s walkSpeed is not changing. There is nothing in the output. ( it is also not printing.)

#23

I also tried yours, it also doesn’t do anything. And there’s nothing in the output

#24 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
		
		local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		
		function SpinnerWalkSpeed()
			Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
			if Humanoid.UseJumpPower == true then
				Humanoid.JumpPower = 80
			else
				Humanoid.JumpHeight = 25
			end
			print("SpinnerSpeed")
		end
		
		function DefaultWalkSpeed()
			Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
			if Humanoid.UseJumpPower == true then
				Humanoid.JumpPower = 50
			else
				Humanoid.JumpHeight = 7.2
			end
			print("DefaultSpeed")
		end
		
		--What is happening here?
		SpinnerWalkSpeed()
		DefaultWalkSpeed()
		
	end)
end)

Is this in Server Script service?

#25

Where are you putting this script in? I tried this script on ServerScriptStorage and it works on my end. This was added onto a separate script by itself btw.

#26

It’s a normal script in ServerScriptService.

#27

Did you try out my script? SubToSte left out the players service which can back fire sometimes

#28

I also tried this, It’s not working either…

#29

Here’s the full script.

REMOVED TO PREVENT CODE BEING STOLEN

Please ignore my messy scripting.

#30

Can you send a picture of this script in the sidebar? of the game settings/ Game tab/ Explorer
Because why are you calling server Script service in a server script?

#32

is this line in use?

if you’re doing this after the players’ character is added it won’t work…
Please just make a loop that loops through all players in-game, and changes their walk speed.
