Hello devforum, Im trying to make a pair of handcuffs but Im having some trouble:
When I arrest someone a pick him up it should look like this:
And it actually looks like this sometimes.
Now, the problem it that sometimes the person who arrested the other player gets stuck in the ground for some reason. Its like if the other player was anchored, but he isnt. The arrested player can walk around and the player who should be taking him arround is stuck without being able to walk.
This is the part of the script im using to weld it:
local holding
local thischar
local otherchar
local weld
event2.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, otherplr, weldv, tool)
print("Received")
thischar = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
otherchar = otherplr.Character or otherplr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
if holding == false or holding == nil then
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(thischar.RightHand.Position)
weld = Instance.new("Weld", otherchar)
weld.Part0 = tool.Handle
weld.Part1 = otherchar.HumanoidRootPart
weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0.5,-1)
weldv.Value = weld
holding = true
thischar.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0
otherchar.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(thischar.RightHand.Position)
thischar.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(thischar.HumanoidRootPart.Position) * Vector3.new(0, 5, 0)
elseif holding == true then
print("Gonna destroy")
weldv.Value:Destroy()
thischar.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50
otherchar.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50
holding = false
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(thischar.RightHand.Position)
end
end)
Don’t use a weld constraint for handcuffs, attaching two players with any weld always leads to annoying issues from what I’ve seen, what you can do instead is either:
BodyGyro & BodyPosition (Or the constraints version since BodyGyro and BodyPos is legacy) or Constantly CFrame the humanoidrootpart (and anchor) of the player that is being handcuffed infront of the player handcuffing (just take the cframe of the player handcuffing the other player and offset it to be infront)
local holding
local thischar
local otherchar
local weld
event2.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, otherplr, weldv, tool)
print("Received")
thischar = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
otherchar = otherplr.Character or otherplr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
if holding == false or holding == nil then
print("Gonna put")
holding = true
elseif holding == true then
print("Gonna destroy")
holding = false
end
end)
while wait(0.05) do
if holding == true then
print("Holding")
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(thischar.RightHand.Position)
else
otherchar.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
print("Not holding")
end
end
It’s possible you have RunningNoPhysics as the HumanoidStateType when you cuff the other player. This would normally yoink you into the ground. If you have the Running State, physics will be calculated and you shouldn’t go into the ground. Try forcing Running as you cuff the other player (you can do this with the :ChangeState() function inside the humanoid).
Right now there are a couple problems, there is delay when moving the person, and the person doesnt face where the player faces for some reason. I have tried using
The problem is that when I set it to running it instantly sets to RunningNoPhysics again.
Edit:
I made this script to test it, and even with that look at the output:
Even with a really fast loop it only prints running one time
Script:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
while wait(0.0000000000001) do
character.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Running)
print(tostring(character.Humanoid:GetState()))
end
Second edit:
It actually works, but abit bugged because is changes from RunningNoPhysics and Running and vice versa all the time.
Is there any way of making it not change to RunningNoPhysics?
