How would I "freeze" a character

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

How would I make it so that a character cannot move?
I want it so that:

  • The player cannot walk around
  • The player cannot jump (it can still fall)
  • The player’s Walkspeed and JumpPower stay the same

Also, I’m trying to use new methods, so I’d like to avoid using Body Movers.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just set the WalkSpeed to 0, ad the JumpPower to 0 as well. That’s pretty much it

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I also don’t want to edit the WalkSpeed and JumpPower, as there is another script that can effect it.

To achieve this you will need to anchor the player; once you want them to walk and jump again, unanchor the player.

I’m trying to figure out how to freeze the player while in midair without them floating.

Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, false)
Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Running, false)

Try this

I’m pretty sure this isn’t what he wants. I think he wants the character to stay in its current position and not be changed by animations. (No anchoring either)

This works, however it seems to only be working on the client. For now I’ll use it until I have a better solution.

You can disable the players controls and then re enable them

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Controls = require(Player.PlayersScripts.PlayerModule):GetControls()
Controls:Disable()
