Humanoid not entering State

yeetuscleetusreal · June 7, 2024, 9:14pm

So I am trying to make a humanoid ragdoll when it is knocked unconscious (hit in the head by a fast moving object)
But sometimes when I try to set it into a state type it either

Doesn’t go into the state
Fakes being in the state (says it’s in the state but doesn’t act like it)

Here’s my current script:

local faces = game.ReplicatedStorage.Faces
local facemgr = require(script.Parent.FaceManager)

local curpained = nil
local paintimer = 0
local cursound = nil
local ragdollscreamed = false
local blushtimer = 5

local neutralphase = 1
local neutraltimer = 0

local consciousness = 1

function neutral(delta)
	facemgr:ClearFaces()
	neutraltimer -= delta
	if (neutraltimer <= 0) then
		if (neutralphase == 1) then
			neutralphase = 3
			neutraltimer = 0.2
		elseif (neutralphase == 2) then
			neutralphase = 1
			neutraltimer = Random.new():NextNumber(3,5)
		elseif (neutralphase == 3) then
			neutralphase = Random.new():NextInteger(4,5)
			neutraltimer = Random.new():NextNumber(3,5)
		else
			neutralphase = 2
			neutraltimer = 0.2
		end
	end
	if (neutralphase == 1) then
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Brows.Neutral)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Eyes.Normal.Normal.Normal)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Mouths.Extra.Normal)
	elseif (neutralphase == 2 or neutralphase == 3) then
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Brows.Neutral)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Eyes.Extra.Misc.Closed)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Mouths.Extra.Normal)
	elseif (neutralphase == 4) then
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Brows.Neutral)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Eyes.Normal.Normal.Look_Left)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Mouths.Extra.Normal)
	elseif (neutralphase == 5) then
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Brows.Neutral)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Eyes.Normal.Normal.Look_Right)
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Mouths.Extra.Normal)
	end
	local blushed = false
	for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position,3)) do
		local hum = v.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass('Humanoid')
		if (hum) then
			if (v == hum.RootPart) then
				if (game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(v.Parent)) then
					-- Is player
					local facedir = script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector
					local toplr = (v.Position - script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Unit
					local dotted = facedir:Dot(toplr)
					if (dotted >= 0.5) then
						-- Player is in front
						local plrface = v.CFrame.LookVector
						local dotted = facedir:Dot(plrface)
						if (dotted <= -0.8) then
							-- Player is looking at us
							blushtimer -= delta
							blushed = true
						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	if (not blushed) then
		blushtimer = 5
	end
	if (blushtimer <= 0) then
		facemgr:AddFace(faces.Effects.Soft_Blush)
	end
end

function pained()
	facemgr:ClearFaces()
	local pained_faces = {
		faces.Random.Shocked_Stare,
		faces.Random.Void_Stare,
		faces.Random.Thousand_Yard_Stare,
		faces.Random.Tired_Thousand_Yard_Stare
	}
	if (not curpained) then
		curpained = pained_faces[Random.new():NextInteger(1,#pained_faces)]
	end
	facemgr:AddFace(curpained)
end

function dead()
	facemgr:ClearFaces()
	facemgr:AddFace(faces.Random.Dead)
end

function hurt()
	facemgr:ClearFaces()
	facemgr:AddFace(faces.Random.Painted_Beaten_Up)
end

function ragdoll()
	facemgr:ClearFaces()
	facemgr:AddFace(faces.Random.Screaming)
	local function scream()
		if (cursound) then
			cursound:Destroy()
		end
		cursound = game.ReplicatedStorage.FallingScreams:GetChildren()[Random.new():NextInteger(1,#game.ReplicatedStorage.FallingScreams:GetChildren())]:Clone()
		cursound.Parent = script.Parent.Head
		cursound:Play()
	end
	if (not ragdollscreamed) then
		ragdollscreamed = true
		if (not cursound) then
			scream()
		else
			if (not cursound.isPlaying) then
				scream()
			end
		end
	end
end

local prevhp = script.Parent.Humanoid.Health

script.Parent.Head.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local diff = (hit.AssemblyLinearVelocity - script.Parent.Head.AssemblyLinearVelocity).Magnitude
	local impact = diff - 10

while true do

		paintimer = 3

					ragdoll()
				end
			else

						hurt_bad()
					end

						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	if (consciousness <= 0.5) then
		while (script.Parent.Humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown) do
			task.wait()
			script.Parent.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown)

end

Relevant part:

local consciousness = 1

while true do
	local delta = task.wait()
	consciousness += delta * 0.1
	consciousness = math.clamp(consciousness,0,1)
	print(consciousness)
	if (consciousness <= 0.5) then
		while (script.Parent.Humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown) do
			task.wait()
			script.Parent.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown)
			print('Attempt')
		end
		print(script.Parent.Humanoid:GetState())
	end
end

Anyone? I really need a fix for this to work.

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:02pm

Hey! I have looked at your code and can you possibly help me understand what “State” You are talking about? You seem to be setting multiple things that could be considered as such

Are you talking about when consciousness is less than .5?

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:04pm

script.Parent.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown)

The Humanoid State

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:04pm

is this a server script?

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:05pm

Yes it is a server script
Attached to an NPC (A non-player, so this shouldn’t be affecting it)

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:09pm

I am going to test something give me a sec

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:11pm

Note that whenever the humanoid decides to actually enter the state seems to be random (at least for me)

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:23pm

Have you set the network ownership to nil?

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:24pm

Shouldn’t it automatically be nil, since it’s an NPC?

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:25pm

I’d just try reaffirming it atp. I have the same issue with setting humanoid states on NPCS and am testing everything I can think of.

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:25pm

Alright I will try that, btw here is what’s happening (Attempt is it looping trying to set the humanoid state)

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:25pm

also try printing out the state its in outside the if statement inside the while loop, so you can see the current state before printing attempt

yeetuscleetusreal · June 8, 2024, 8:31pm

It seems setting the HumanoidRootPart ownership to nil worked! Thank you!

apollos454 · June 8, 2024, 8:31pm

Nice!!!
