NPC falls over when spawned

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I have this npc that I am making walk. This works fine on a normal character but on this one it falls down, How do I fix this? I have can collide on.

Anchor itㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

The other blocky ones are not anchored. And when I anchor it, it won’t move.

Mind sending the scripts used to control the movement of the droid?

Looking at it from a physics perspective, you could do the following:

  1. Set the mass of all the droid body parts equal to 0 and set their CanCollide to false
  2. Use the normal R6 player model and weld the arm parts to the arms, leg parts to the legs, etc.
  3. Set the transparency of the R6 player model equal to 0

If necessary, also rename the preexisting droid parts so the script doesn’t get them confused

I only had to do this for the torso and it worked. Thanks!
