Make Body Velocity move with HRP

[Elmindreada (dread)]

I want to make it so that the body velocity direction will always be the direction the player is facing. For example it is moving forward, but if i turn to the left with shiftlock the velocity will be into that direction to, basically moving in the direction im facing. Here’s the current code. It runs in the server

local WVelocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity",Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart)
			WVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(30000, 0, 30000)
			game.Debris:AddItem(WVelocity,1)
			WVelocity.Velocity = (Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 70)```

Does the code you provided work currently, or no?

If not - I assume it’s because you need to have some sort of loop or rapid firing event to change the direction of the velocity so it always is in the direction the player is looking.

for example:

game:GetService("RunService").HeartBeat:Connect(function()
    WVelocity.Velocity = (Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 70)
end)

Also, you may wish to move it to the client in order to reduce the load on the server, especially if you have multiple players in the server.

any way to do this without a loop?

Not that I can think of.

If im not wrong BodyVelocity is deprecated… So this wont work. You could try using VectorForce tho!

[Elmindreada (dread)]

vector force is laggy it only works smoothly if you set the network owner

How is it laggy??? Still you cant use BodyVelocity anymore.
