Ragdolling character stops the animation

[sinanxd2 (Fisher)]

Ragdolling character stops the animation. If ragdoll ends quickly, animation continues, skipping frames lost when ragdolled.

My ragdoll script sets every HumanoidState to false other than None and Ragdoll, when ragdolled. And it just with ball sockets when Ragdoll state gets enabled. These characters have primary parts anchored and is animated, after animation is done, character goes to animated position and gets vector force applied to it.

How can I fix this?

Ragdolls are unanimated, so this is expected. What are you trying to do?

I wanted to do a ragdolled animation for throwing the character. Like this:

So, do you mean this is fully animated?

The ragdoll is not animated. The limbs are being thrown around by physics. This resource may help you:

DevXylo's IK Ragdoll Method (Inverse Kinematics Ragdoll Module)

Do you struggle with ragdolls? Do you need a new way of making ragdolls? Are you looking for a good ragdoll module? You should try this module out! Introducing, Inverse Kinematics Ragdoll Module! This module uses my method of making IK Ragdolls. It’s the 2023 way of making ragdolls, It has better collisions and it’s less buggier than the previous method (BallSocketConstraint Method) Module Link IK Ragdoll Module (DevXylo Method) Module Guide: Step 1 - Requiring the module. You will need to…

are you sure? I was talking about the 0:02 - 0:04 part, not 0:04 - 0:09. Like, not the ragdoll, the animation part. I will check it out for 0:04 - 0:09 part tho.

I mean it is cool with animation, but would be good if I could do something like animation with ragdoll.
Thank you for help btw. This is final result with animation, for now.

Like he said, you can’t animate a ragdoll since the point of a ragdoll is for physics to take over. So instead of using an animation, you’ll need to use an align position to grab the ragdoll instead.

Here’s a rough list of steps to replicate what happens in the video.

1. Make a “fake” ragdoll on the attacker’s client for the smoothest performance. While that fake ragdoll is visible, make the actual target invisible.
2. Attach the fake ragdoll to the hand of the attacker using an align position. You can even shift where the hand is grabbing mid-throw by changing the position of the attachments.
3. Once you reach the release part of the animation, delete the fake ragdoll and deal knockback and ragdoll to the actual target. Also make the real target visible again.
