Trying to ragdoll player when slapped e

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So i made a script where a player slaps another player then the player that is slapped gets ragdolled. Everything is working fine no errors but when the Ragdoll Function executes on a player this happens:

Ragdoll Script:

local function RagdollCharacter(Char)
	local d = Char:GetDescendants()
	for i=1,#d do
		local desc = d[i]
		if desc:IsA("Motor6D") then
			local socket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
			local part0 = desc.Part0
			local joint_name = desc.Name
			local attachment0 = desc.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or desc.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			local attachment1 = part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			if attachment0 and attachment1 then
				socket.Attachment0, socket.Attachment1 = attachment0, attachment1
				socket.Parent = desc.Parent
				
				desc:Destroy()
			end	
		end
	end
end

Since i also want the player to be knocked back by the slap it would help alot if someone to guide me on how to do that, but the Main priority is the Ragdoll script thanks!!

Okay so, I looked at the function, and I messed around with it for a bit and I discovered that it only works if you also kill the Humanoid.

If that isn’t a viable option, I can go make a new script.

Also, for the knocking back of the slap, try doing this:

  1. Get the LookVector of the character who was hit
  2. Use :ApplyImpulse on the character’s HumanoidRootPart with the opposite of the character’s LookVector

It should look something like this:

local function ApplyImpulse(character)
	local HumanoidRootPart = character.HumanoidRootPart
	HumanoidRootPart:ApplyImpulse(-HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 2000)
end

Thanks for the knockback help but yea the killing isnt a viable option

Do you need to un-ragdoll the character after?

If you don’t need to un-ragdoll them after, try this:

local function RagdollCharacter(character)	
	local Humanoid = character.Humanoid
	Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
	
	for i, descendant in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
		if descendant:IsA("Motor6D") then			
			local a1 = Instance.new("Attachment")
			a1.CFrame = descendant.C0
			a1.Parent = descendant.Part0

			local a2 = Instance.new("Attachment")
			a2.CFrame = descendant.C1
			a2.Parent = descendant.Part1
			
			local socket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
			socket.Attachment0 = a1
			socket.Attachment1 = a2
			socket.LimitsEnabled = true
			socket.TwistLimitsEnabled = true
			socket.Parent = descendant.Parent

			descendant:Destroy()
		end
	end
end

I recommend you if you are ragdolling the character put on the script Humanoid:ChangeState() to Physics to give the character a better ragdoll for example

Character.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics)

if your character will stand up you can change it to GettingUp

Character.Humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.GettingUp)

I’do recommend do this in the client!

I don’t believe this type of Ragdoll is what he wants. The one you put doesn’t work too well as the player just falls over.

So basically I want the player who’s been slapped to rag doll to then UNragdoll I want the whole server to see it so that’s why I’m doing on a server scriot

Okay, change your script to this:

local CharacterMotor6Ds = {}

local function RagdollCharacter(character)
	local Humanoid = character.Humanoid
	Humanoid.PlatformStand = true
	
	CharacterMotor6Ds[character] = {}

	for i, descendant in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
		if descendant:IsA("Motor6D") then
			local socket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
			local part0 = descendant.Part0
			local joint_name = descendant.Name
			local attachment0 = descendant.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or descendant.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			local attachment1 = part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			if attachment0 and attachment1 then
				socket.Attachment0, socket.Attachment1 = attachment0, attachment1
				socket.Parent = descendant.Parent
				
				table.insert(CharacterMotor6Ds[character], descendant)
				descendant.Enabled = false
			end	
		end
	end
end

local function UnragdollCharacter(character)
	local Humanoid = character.Humanoid
	Humanoid.PlatformStand = false
	
	local characterMotor6Ds = CharacterMotor6Ds[character]
	
	for i, motor6D in ipairs(characterMotor6Ds) do
		motor6D.Enabled = true
	end
end

It ragdolls but when it unragdolls the player gets flinged

Oh, change your unragdoll function to this:

local function UnragdollCharacter(character)
	local HumanoidRootPart = character.HumanoidRootPart
	HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
	
	local characterMotor6Ds = CharacterMotor6Ds[character]

	for i, motor6D in ipairs(characterMotor6Ds) do
		motor6D.Enabled = true
	end
		
	local Humanoid = character.Humanoid
	Humanoid.PlatformStand = false
	
	task.wait(0.1)
	HumanoidRootPart.AssemblyLinearVelocity = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
	HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
end
