Every time I change the character property of my Player, it respawns after waiting out the respawn time.
Is there any way possible where I can stop that one player whose character I changed from respawning? Any new information or help would be highly appreciated 
After respawning, the character model also resets to its default player model.
I’m having the same issue and its insane how there doesn’t seem to be any answers to any posts I could find regarding to this exact issue.
Found the solution and idk why or how it works.
Instead of setting the character’s parent to workspace first then setting it as the player’s character first set it as the player’s character then parent it to workspace.
