I want to have my characters ragdoll on death with EchoReaper’s ragdoll script, but however seconds after the character is cloned the ragdoll starts to shake.

I have tried anchoring the ragdoll, but that just makes it so the ragdoll is in its “t-pose” (a character with no animation)
CODE

This is a test file to demonstrate how ragdolls work. If you don't use
this file, you need to manually apply the Ragdoll tag to humanoids that
you want to ragdoll

while wait(.001) do
game.ReplicatedStorage.look:FireServer(Neck.C0)
end
The script that is triggered when “look” is triggered
game.ReplicatedStorage.look.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, neckCFrame)
for key, value in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
if value ~= player then
game.ReplicatedStorage.look:FireClient(value, player, neckCFrame)
end
end
end)
Other details:
I use a startercharacter and edited the code to make it work with startercharacters.
I have a script that makes the character’s waist follow the camera.
I have a script that follows the head rather than the humanoidrootpart.
