This is the obvious solution. I mean I would personally do wait(game:GetService(“Players”).RespawnTime) but whatever. I guess my question was why does it break re-spawning in the first place.

It seems like Humanoid :MoveTo() continues to function still, however it just sorta walks on its back and doesn’t move much other than flail around… fix?

Looks like it’s time to bind a function to detect a Humanoid.Died event.

This looks like a fun feature, I will probably not use it but I imagine it’s used to replace those free model ragdoll scripts.

Definitely a helpful property. I plan to make great use of this!
I think a benefit nobody else has mentioned so far is death animations - Now that the joints aren’t broken, we can make animations that occur on player death which can make stuff a lot more believable in the long run without requiring extremely complex scripting to emulate death with a fake humanoid and custom status handlers.

We can now run animations on death because of this feature! Thank you!

I just made a discovery of this feature:
If you disable BreakJointsOnDeath, and zoom into first person and face anywhere. Your character will face wherever your camera is facing at.
Protip: Change the camera zoom to 3rd person directly after death and restrict zooming to first person, until respawn.

An easier trick is to turn Humanoid.AutoRotate to false

I know everyone else is saying this too but I have one word:
Finally.

Awesome! Now the next thing we need are unbreakable joints

After some testing in studio, it seems that anchoring the HumanoidRootPart is what is preventing spawning, so I just removed this line and it seems to work fine:
character.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
(I’m really not sure why anchoring HRP makes spawning not happen ¯\ _ (ツ)_/¯ )

Probably something to do with :SetPrimaryPartCFrame and stuff (Honestly that’s the most random feature ever)

Sounds like a pretty grim death to me, but other than that this is a nice feature!

Lovely feature. I like the idea when it’s set to false, you just fall on your face
