Hello everyone!
I’ve recently been looking to create a deceleration and acceleration system to player movement where similar to a car, going forward speeds the player over time and stopping movement from an input slows the player to a stop. (Ex. holding W speeds up over time, the player stops pressing W and they slow to a stop.)
I’ve tackled the acceleration part to this idea, but I’ve found that deceleration isn’t as easy to implement, would anyone know of a good way to do this?
You can instead increase a number value over time, then just subtract that continuously increasing number from the walkspeed to create deceleration.
Thanks! Though looking through it the topic lacked the answer to my arching question of how to get deceleration working so I’ll have to find the answer elsewhere.
So by deceleration, you mean that when the player stops giving input to move, his/her character will have a transition to a stop? I believe this can be done with a BodyVelocity with a max force of somewhere near Vector3.new(2500, 0, 2500).
I’d suggest having a script that’d create that body velocity, parent it to the humanoid root part, and then run through a loop and edit the humanoid root part’s velocity to match the one of the body velocity.
Yes, transitioning from the walk to a complete stop, right now if you are to stop giving input the character completely stops, I’d like to get it to where the character will instead slow to a stop.
Hi, I was reading an old thread of yours, to decelerate a player and have them slowly stop moving, or skid… Did you figure how how to do that , and if so how?
What are you using to accelerate the player. There are many ways to decelerate them, depending on how you accelerate them.
Hi,
Thanks for replying, I have not started any code, but was looking at this for acceleration.
If you have any suggestions for both , let me know and I will test it it.
Thanks!
Try this, it’s both acceleration and deceleration. (Edit: there are better ways to go about this, but a lot of people seem happy with the result this provides so I am going to leave it here.)

DV.Velocity = HRP.Velocity
DV.Parent = HRP

DecelTween2 = TS:Create(DV, TweenInfo.new(AccelerationTime, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, Enum.EasingDirection.Out), {Velocity = Vector3.new(0,0,0)})
DecelTween:Play()
DecelTween2:Play()
delay(AccelerationTime, function()
if DV then
Hum.WalkSpeed = 10
DV:Destroy()
end
end)
end
end)
I just realized I accidentally bumped a 2 year old post…
cool thanks! I will check it out…
