Humanoid.Sit not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1
  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want to make a check that detects when someone sits
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    It was working for a while, but suddenly stopped
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I found nobody else with the issue
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
while task.wait(0.1) do
if hum.Sit == true then
	print("sitting")
end
end
#2 
if hum.Sit == true then
	print("sitting")
end

try changing to

if hum.SeatPart ~= nil then
	print("sitting")
end
#3

I still get the same issue, where it doesnt print

#4

is this a local or server script

#5

It is a local script in starter player scripts

#6

it might be that you are on the client and not the server, try switching to serverscript and making the code this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
while task.wait(0.1) do
if hum.Sit == true then
	print("sitting")
end
end
end)

Try using hum.Sit.Value instead, let me know if that works.

Why not just do this?

--// Local script

local Player = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild('Humanoid') ::Humanoid

local function ValueChanged()
   if Humanoid.Sit then
      print('sitting')
   end
end

Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal('Sit'):Connect(ValueChanged)

i think my game is bugged that didnt work either. Il try to upload a video of it later

#12

Where did you put the local script?

#13

Whats the actual goal besides just detect if they sit? Why do you need to detect it? Just asking incase it needs to be local or server or a different method of detecting if they’re sitting, OnSeated event or PropertyChangedSignal

Im using it as part of a plane system, so the local script doesnt transmit the mouse position to the server while the player isnt sitting

#15

the script is in starter player scripts

#16

I ran the script you posted originally, it seems to work.

#17

If it still doesn’t work for you I’d try this:

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid", 5)

hum:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Sit"):Connect(function()
	if hum.Sit == true then
		print("sitting")-- your code here if player is sitting
	else
		print("not sitting")-- your code here if player is not sitting
	end
end)
#18

my sit detection code

local players = game:GetService("Players")

local player = players.LocalPlayer or players:GetPropertyChangedSignal("LocalPlayer"):Wait()
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local function onSeated(onSeat, seatPart)
	if onSeat and seatPart then
		print("sit action")
	else
		print("NO! >:( please go sit again and relax for the day")
	end
end

humanoid.Seated:Connect(onSeated)

This is what happens with all the scripts

#20

Anyone got an idea of what could be causing this?
