Hi! So I have a piggyback system which auto-checks if someone died or not. This is the function:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
char.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
local plr1 = nil
local plr2 = nil
for i,v in runningPiggybacks do
if i == plr then -- IF HOST == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = plr
plr2 = v
break
else
if v == plr then -- IF SECOND PLAYER == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = i
plr2 = plr
break
end
end
end
if plr1 and plr2 then
PiggybackHandler.StopPiggyback(plr2,plr)
end
end)
end)
end)
→
PiggybackHandler.StopPiggyback = function(plr,plrWho)
local plr1 = nil
local plr2 = nil
for i,v in runningPiggybacks do
if i == plr then -- IF HOST == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = plr
plr2 = v
break
else
if v == plr then -- IF SECOND PLAYER == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = i
plr2 = plr
break
end
end
end
if plr1 and plr2 then
runningPiggybacks[plr1] = nil
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr1,false)
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr2,false)
local playerWhoReset = plr2
local notedPos = nil
local PlrToChange = nil
if plr1 == plrWho then
PlrToChange = plr2
elseif plr2 == plrWho then
PlrToChange = plr1
end
notedPos = PlrToChange.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
plr1:LoadCharacter()
plr2:LoadCharacter()
wait()
PlrToChange.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = notedPos
--[[if plr1.Character then
AnimationsHandler.StopAnimation(plr1,"Plr1")
if plr1.Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("PiggybackWeld") then
plr1.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld.Part0 = nil
plr1.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld.Part1 = nil
plr1.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld:Destroy()
end
end
if plr2.Character then
AnimationsHandler.StopAnimation(plr2,"Plr2")
plr2.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = MiscModule.Walkspeed
plr2.Character.Humanoid.AutoRotate = true
plr2.Character.Humanoid.PlatformStand = false
if plr2.Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("PiggybackWeld") then
plr2.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld.Part0 = nil
plr2.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld.Part1 = nil
plr2.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld.Enabled = true
plr2.Character.HumanoidRootPart.PiggybackWeld:Destroy()
end
for i,v in plr2.Character:GetChildren() do
if v:IsA("BasePart") then
print("TURNED MASSLESS TO FALSE")
v.Massless = false
end
end
end--]]
end
end
And this way it is working now but when I manually remove the weld’s I have put on the player who is being carried, SOMETIMES incase a person resets, the other person is being “resetted” too. But the weird thing is: It is only then for the player who resetted themself. However, this whole script is server sided. Could this be the cause of the welds? Please help.
I’ve been battling this issue for years.
If the weld is parented under the character model and the Part1 or Part0 is joint broken either from death or weld removal, it will also apply to the other character. It’s a very specific and inconsistent interaction but it’s part of the old way Roblox was coded.
If you parent the weld outside of the character model, like a folder in workspace, it should fix the issue .
I would appreciate it by a lot if you could have a look again.
This is the edited code:
PiggybackHandler.Piggyback = function(plr1,plr2)
runningPiggybacks[plr1] = plr2
local plr1Char = plr1.Character
local plr2Char = plr2.Character
plr2Char.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
plr2Char.Humanoid.AutoRotate = false
plr2Char.Humanoid.PlatformStand = true
for i,v in plr2Char:GetChildren() do
if v:IsA("BasePart") then
v.Massless = true
end
end
local newWeld = Instance.new("Weld")
newWeld.Name = plr1.Name
newWeld.Parent = game.Workspace.PiggybackWelds
newWeld.Part0 = plr1Char.HumanoidRootPart
newWeld.Part1 = plr2Char.HumanoidRootPart
AnimationsHandler.PlayAnimation(plr1,"Plr1")
AnimationsHandler.PlayAnimation(plr2,"Plr2")
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr1,true)
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr2,true)
end
PiggybackHandler.StopPiggyback = function(plr,plrWho)
local plr1 = nil
local plr2 = nil
for i,v in runningPiggybacks do
if i == plr then -- IF HOST == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = plr
plr2 = v
break
else
if v == plr then -- IF SECOND PLAYER == PLAYER WHO LEFT / REQUESTED LEAVE
plr1 = i
plr2 = plr
break
end
end
end
if plr1 and plr2 then
runningPiggybacks[plr1] = nil
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr1,false)
remotes.ToggleStop:FireClient(plr2,false)
local playerWhoReset = plr2
local notedPos = nil
local PlrToChange = nil
if plr1 == plrWho then
PlrToChange = plr2
elseif plr2 == plrWho then
PlrToChange = plr1
end
notedPos = PlrToChange.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
--plr1:LoadCharacter()
--plr2:LoadCharacter()
if plr1.Character then
AnimationsHandler.StopAnimation(plr1,"Plr1")
if game.Workspace.PiggybackWelds:FindFirstChild(plr1.Name) then
game.Workspace.PiggybackWelds[plr1.Name].Part0 = nil
game.Workspace.PiggybackWelds[plr1.Name].Part1 = nil
game.Workspace.PiggybackWelds[plr1.Name]:Destroy()
end
end
if plr2.Character then
AnimationsHandler.StopAnimation(plr2,"Plr2")
plr2.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = MiscModule.Walkspeed
plr2.Character.Humanoid.AutoRotate = true
plr2.Character.Humanoid.PlatformStand = false
for i,v in plr2.Character:GetChildren() do
if v:IsA("BasePart") then
v.Massless = false
end
end
end
wait()
PlrToChange.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = notedPos
end
end
The reason why both player dies when one resets is because they are welded together, and since BreakJointsOnDeath is On by Default… when one die, it’ll break every joints that’s connected to it… Including the neck on the Other Player. And also because of when the Neck joint is Destroyed, the Player Will Die. In short it’s basically a chain effect caused by BreakJointsOnDeath.
Now, the only way you can fix it is probably to disable BreakJointsOnDeath and Using a Script, destroy the Weld connecting Both Players. Then destroying all Joints on the Player that died. To replicate Roblox lego pieces breaking thing idk death effect
Well but I had BreakJoints on false and then the stuff in the Gyazo happens. The removement of the welds won’t work but in the deletion script, it does remove them…
