Tool giving player weird velocity sometimes

Help and Feedback Platform Usage Support
#1

This is a support category for asking questions about how to get something done on the Roblox websites or how to do something on Roblox applications such as Roblox Studio.

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I need the tool to stop giving the player weird velocity.
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    When you jump while the sword at a certain angle, it will make the player move really fast in a certain direction
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    Tried making all parts on the tool massless

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

Making the parts of the tool massless is a good guess. It’s weird that’s happening.

Some things:

  • Is the sword rigidly connected? (No movable constraints that might be bugging out?)
  • Are there any scripts in the sword that affect the physics? (Stuff that applies impulses, adds body movers, etc?)
  • Have you tried making the sword non-collide? (I’ve never heard of this being a problem but it might help diagnose it.)

It turns out the weld that welded the handle to the hitbox was the reason why it was doing that. Thank you for the help!
