Scale the player down without the glitch showed in the video happening.

instead of scaling the player down I tried to respawn the player in the same spot, but that reset the cooldown UI.

I discovered that part of the problem is due to the humanoidrootpart not moving it’s location after the player gets scaled down. This probably causes the problem of the camera angle and the weird collisions that the player has. I’ve been trying to figure out how to scale the humanoidrootpart back into the correct position along with the rest of the player’s body but can’t seem to figure it out.

Hi xDom,
As a short-term solution, would disabling the ResetOnSpawn property of the cooldown UI as you respawn the character help? Since LoadCharacter() would not trigger the Humanoid’s Died event, there could be a handler for resetting the necessary UI elements after the character actually dies.

#4

I tried this earlier, but when reset on spawn is turned off the UI breaks after the character respawns.

#5

Solution was to change .Position to .CFrame
