Ladder not working due to rapid part movements when I touch it

I’m trying to make a ladder and it is perfectly structured like one. I’ve used rope constraints to connect unanchored parts with the first one being anchored.

The problem is whenever I touch a part it moves rapidly and my only solution to this is a while loop setting each and every parts AssemblyAngularVelocity and AssemblyLinearVelocity to Vector3.zero.

I don’t think this is a very performant solution for the server though.

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

local Ladder = {} -- 1 extra ladder part is created to initialize the pattern of the script(always called 0)

Ladder.Visible = true
Ladder.PartColor = Color3.fromRGB(199, 136, 89)
Ladder.PartMaterial = Enum.Material.Wood
Ladder.PartSize = Vector3.new(4,0.25,0.5)

Ladder.Create = function(amount,startPosition,parent)
	local lastPart
	for i = 1,amount do
		local currentPart = Ladder.Part(tostring(i),parent)
		if i > 1 then
			lastPart = parent:FindFirstChild(tostring(i - 1))
			lastPart.RightRope.Attachment1 = currentPart:FindFirstChild("Right")
			lastPart.LeftRope.Attachment1 = currentPart:FindFirstChild("Left")
		end
		if i == 1 then
			local firstPart = Ladder.Part(tostring(i-1),parent)
			firstPart.Anchored = true
			firstPart.Position = startPosition
			
			firstPart.RightRope.Attachment1 = currentPart:FindFirstChild("Right")
			firstPart.LeftRope.Attachment1 = currentPart:FindFirstChild("Left")
		end
	end
end

Ladder.Part = function(indexName,parent)
	local part = Instance.new("Part")
	part:AddTag("LadderPart")
	part.Massless = true
	part.Color = Ladder.PartColor
	part.Material = Ladder.PartMaterial
	part.Size = Ladder.PartSize
	part.Anchored = false
	part.CanCollide = true
	part.TopSurface = Enum.SurfaceType.Smooth
	part.BottomSurface = Enum.SurfaceType.Smooth
	part.Name = indexName
	part.Parent = parent

	local rightAttachment = Ladder.Attachment(Vector3.new(1.75, 0, 0),part,"Right")
	local leftAttachment = Ladder.Attachment(Vector3.new(-1.75, 0, 0),part,"Left")
	
	local right = Ladder.Rod(part.Right)
	local left = Ladder.Rod(part.Left)
	return part
end

Ladder.Rope = function(originAttachment) -- Create a rope inside the very first part which attaches to the next part
	local rope = Instance.new("RopeConstraint")
	rope.Visible = Ladder.Visible
	rope.Name = originAttachment.Name .. "Rope"
	rope.Attachment0 = originAttachment
	rope.Parent = originAttachment.Parent
end

Ladder.Rod = function(originAttachment) -- still has name Rope so i can do less work with this torturous and annoying module
	local rod = Instance.new("RodConstraint")
	rod.Visible = Ladder.Visible
	rod.Length = 1.5
	rod.LimitsEnabled = true
	rod.LimitAngle1 = 360
	rod.LimitAngle0 = 360
	rod.Name = originAttachment.Name .. "Rope"
	rod.Attachment0 = originAttachment
	rod.Parent = originAttachment.Parent
end

Ladder.Attachment = function(offset,parent,name)
	local attachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
	attachment.Name = name
	attachment.Position = offset
	attachment.Parent = parent
	return attachment
end


return Ladder

Here is my module, any efficient ways to make the unanchored ladder parts not move rapidly under physics.

I’ve tried CustomPhysicalProperties, Rod LimitsEnabled, Massless property, and a while loop in a task.spawn changing the parts Angular and Linear Velocity.
