I’ve spent quite some hours trying to get it to work. I’ve tried everything and while the IKControls themselves work the constraints don’t. If someone has gotten it to work and could share a game file I would greatly appreciate it.
I am also having the same problem, even the pole property is not working for me.

A follow up:
I found out that the IKControl’s Pole and Constraints only shows/works on the client. Which means that if you test out the IKControl in the server via the run button, the Constraints and Pole of the IKControl will not work. But if you look at the IKControl through the client, you will see the Pole and Constraints functioning as intended.
It does suck that it only works in the client because I really wanted to use the IKControls for a physics based NPC but it is what it is.

Hello! Sorry for a really late second follow up. I found out a while ago that to make IKControl constraints work, you would need to set the property of workspace called ‘IKControlConstraintSupport’ to Enabled. I hope this helps you out with your troubles with IKControls and once again, apologies for a very late follow-up.

Hey, do you mind if you could tell me where you got that information from?
Hello! I got the information from testing the IKControls both on the client and server. Both of them yielded different results because the client has it’s own physics rendering/calculating system. But right now, I think it was just a red herring after finding out about the workspace.IKControlConstraintSupport property. But If you want to see for yourself, you can follow the documentation about IKControls from the official site.
Thank you for the reply, I have been stuck with IKControl Constraint stuff for a while and I still can’t quite figure out what is the problem.
They sometimes work fine but they stop working randomly, It’s like 50/50 chance everytime I click play. It wont change while playing though.

I’m glad to be any help! If you are still struggling with any IKControl related stuff, I may not be able to help anymore because these are all I know about the topic. I have tried to search through the forums to find more information about them and it had yielded my current understanding of it now. The official documentation of IKControls are missing some information about the topic itself, as far as I know, the documentation did not mention the workspace.IKControlConstraintSupport property.

Thanks for all the replies though, this is my first time sending stuff around here.

I can’t find any information regarding this option. It is also not accessible through scripts, only on the Studio settings, but it didn’t seem to make a difference for me.
I also have an issue where the constraints are not working. Digging into the options, I saw that “Active” is not active anymore for some reason, any idea why this could be? It has both Attachment0 and Attachment1 options. and they’re set correctly.
I do remember them working in the past, even in tech demos that don’t have them “Active” anymore. I tried to verify if they are working by stressing the constraints out, but they are just letting the joints rotate in wild angles.
[EDIT] More information: I am using them on a humanoid, also for IK controls as well. I do notice they become ‘Active’ if I hit Respawn and my ragdoll activates. I tried on a clean project, without the ragdoll system, but they still remain inactive.
