What is the best way to work with Players.CharacterAutoLoads = false?

What I want is to make all players in my game wear a predetermined outfit for the entire game.

What I did was “Players.CharacterAutoLoads = false” and create a HumanoidDescription with all the assets I want the player to have.

The problem is that I don’t know how to assign that HumanoidDescription to the player all the time. From when he joins the game, to when he dies or resets.

This code I found in this tutorial is only useful for when the player joins but not when he/she resets.

-- Stop automatic spawning so it can be done in the "PlayerAdded" callback
game.Players.CharacterAutoLoads = false
 
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
	-- Create a HumanoidDescription
	local humanoidDescription = Instance.new("HumanoidDescription")
	humanoidDescription.HatAccessory = "2551510151,2535600138"
	humanoidDescription.BodyTypeScale = 0.1
	humanoidDescription.ClimbAnimation = 619521311
	humanoidDescription.Face = 86487700
	humanoidDescription.GraphicTShirt = 1711661
	humanoidDescription.HeadColor = Color3.new(0, 1, 0)
	-- Spawn character with the HumanoidDescription
	player:LoadCharacterWithHumanoidDescription(humanoidDescription)
end
 
-- Connect "PlayerAdded" event to "onPlayerAdded()" function
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

I don’t want to create StarterCharacter because I want the clothes a player wears to change dynamically and the only way to achieve that is with a HumanoidDescription.

Thank you for helping me.

You should monitor their death state, and monitor if the character’s HumanoidRootPart is removed, i.e jumping off the map into the void should it be possible in your game.

You could also put a Humanoid into StarterCharacterScripts with your HumanoidDescription loaded if I’m correct.

Or you could place the Shirt (and/or) Pants into StarterCharacterScripts and it should overwrite them.

Thanks for responding but the problem is that I don’t know how to use it in this case. You could give me a brief description of how I should do it.

This sounds promising, but I could change the clothing dynamically during the game

I believe you can just change the ShirtTemplate throughout the game
