This function doesnt work, Why? | Roblox Studio Community | Page 1

local Character = script.Parent
local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

Humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(function()
    local State = Humanoid:GetState()
    if State == "Jumping" or "FreeFalling" then
        print("falling")
    else
        print("Landed")
    end
end)

This script is supposed to print "falling" whenever the character jumps or is falling and landed whenever they exit that state, but for some reason the script only prints "falling" why is that?

#

i also tried putting the if statement in a while loop to test if it is the functions fault and it produced the same output

You should do this instead

local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

Humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(function()
    local State = Humanoid:GetState()
    if State == "Jumping" then
        print("falling")
    elseif State == "FreeFalling" then
        print("Landed")
    end
end)

#

and humanoid.falling
