Stroller Not Working Properly on Players that Spawned in After

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

I have a stroller tool for a roleplaying game that picks players up when it hits them but for some reason it only works correctly when it is used on a player that spawned in before the player that is picking them up did. If someone tries to pick someone up that spawned in after them then they will pick them up, fall down, walk weirdly with a weird camera angle, start tilting towards the side, and eventually fall down again. I am not quite sure why this happens, and I don’t know how to fix it. Below is a screenshot of inside of the tool.

I believe you have a network ownership issue since there is a seat within your tool. Read up on the API here and i would think you will need to assign network ownership to the player who equips the tool:

I appreciate the help! I put this script inside of the seat but it didn’t do anything. Is that the wrong thing?

-- Script inside of VehicleSeat
local VehicleSeat = script.Parent
 
VehicleSeat.Changed:Connect(function(prop)
	if prop == "Occupant" then
		local humanoid = VehicleSeat.Occupant
		if humanoid then
			local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
			if player then
				VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
			end
		else
			VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwnershipAuto()
		end
	end
end)

What a minute… i just noticed, you have a tool, so you dont want to do vehicle seat… you want it to be Equipped, not occupant i believe… so that whoever is equipping the tool has network ownership, not the other player who is sitting.

So instead of a Changed function you will want to do Tool.Equipped function.

Like this?

-- Script inside of VehicleSeat
local VehicleSeat = script.Parent

script.Parent.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function(prop)
	if prop == "Occupant" then
		local humanoid = script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid
		if humanoid then
			local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
			if player then
				VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
			end
		else
			VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwnershipAuto()
		end
	end
end)

Scripting isn’t my strong suit, but try this:

local VehicleSeat = script.Parent
local Tool = script.Parent.Parent

Tool.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		VehicleSeat.Changed:Connect(function(prop)
			if prop == "Occupant" then
				local humanoid = VehicleSeat.Occupant
				if humanoid then
					local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
					if player then
						VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
					end
				else
					VehicleSeat:SetNetworkOwnershipAuto()
				end
			end
		end)
	end
end)

Thank you, it still does the same thing though unfortunately. I’m not sure what the issue is.
