Why does my script not detect when I touch the ground?

Hello!
I have a problem with my script. For some reason it does not detect when I stop jumping. Any help?

local char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
jump = false
hum.StateChanged:Connect(function(oldState, newState)
	if newState == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping then -- if humanoid is currently jumping
		jump = true
		print("hi")
	end
end)
RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	wait(0.1)
	if jump == true then
		if char.Humanoid:GetState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping) then
		else
			print("bye")
			jump = false
		end
	end
end)

You can also add a StateChanged of Landed, so the script knows when you’ve landed.

The main problem with the script is that it is not checking if the player is currently in the air before setting the “jump” variable to “true”. This means that if the player jumps and then immediately lands, the “jump” variable will still be set to “true”.

To fix this, you can add a check to see if the player is in the air before setting the “jump” variable to “true”:

if newState == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping and not char.Humanoid:GetState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping) then
    jump = true
    print("hi")
end
