i am trying to make a falldamage script in a localscript and i thought it would be cool if i rotate the player upwards to look more like they are falling down but i get this super weird bug can anyone help fix it
wait(3);
local l__Parent__1 = script.Parent;
local l__Humanoid__2 = l__Parent__1:WaitForChild("Humanoid");
while wait(0.5) do
local v3 = RaycastParams.new();
local v4 = {};
for v5, v6 in ipairs(script.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
if v6:IsA("BasePart") then
table.insert(v4, v6);
end;
end;
v3.FilterDescendantsInstances = v4;
v3.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist;
if not workspace:Raycast(script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position, Vector3.new(0, -30 * l__Humanoid__2.BodyHeightScale.Value, 0), v3) and l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics and l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing then
local v7 = l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics;
local v8 =l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.PlatformStanding;
l__Humanoid__2:ChangeState(v7 and Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics or Enum.HumanoidStateType.GettingUp);
l__Parent__1.Animate.Disabled = v7;
script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Orientation = Vector3.new(-90, Y, Z)
local hptake = 0
while not workspace:Raycast(script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position, Vector3.new(0, -30 * l__Humanoid__2.BodyHeightScale.Value, 0), v3) and l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Physics and l__Humanoid__2:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing do
hptake = hptake + 25
wait(1)
end;
wait(1)
l__Humanoid__2:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.GettingUp);
l__Parent__1.Animate.Enabled = v8;
script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Orientation = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Health = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Health - hptake
hptake = 0
end;
end;
Its not a “bug” its the Humanoid trying to preserve its normal rotation due to the Humanoid Controller.
A possible approach if you want to rotate the characters in that way, is building your own Controller.
I found that issue when I tried to make a system where you walk over a sphere, like a planet with gravity, so the best way I found is creating a custom controller for the character, and disabling the default one.
You could give it a check to this module to understand how to achieve it and build your own one, or try to use it
Also perhaps I should mention that if you replace the default falling/landed sequence with a humanoidstate physics + custom landing detection(touched event or raycast), the player would spin as they fell to the ground, as Physics would give the character the physics of any other part. You’d have to combine the physics state with an align orientation with a lowish force to bias the orientation to the way it is in your photo.
I encountered this bug before when I tried anchoring a HumanoidRootPart and setting its CFrame. It resulted in weird displacements that affected my game’s PVP quite a bit. I solved this one by using :PivotTo() on the character model rather than manually editing the HumanoidRootPart’s CFrame and the weird displacement issue disappeared.
