#Overriding AssemblyLinearVelocity on Client?

So with most properties on parts, you can modify them on the client and have the changes reflect on to the player's client but no one else on the server.

However, I can't get this to work with AssemblyLinearVelocity. If I try setting the AssemblyLinearVelocity of a part only on the client, it doesn't move at all.

I've found a couple of posts regarding this issue:

Both of them suggest utilizing Part:SetNetworkOwnership, however, doing this actually makes the AssemblyLinearVelocity applied on the client, reflect on the server, which I don't want.

I'm curious if theres another way of doing this and just generally curious as to why modifying AssemblyLinearVelocity on the client doesn't work.

Setting AssemblyLinearVelocity and ApplyImpulse doesn't seem to work

I have a script meant to slow the fall of the player, I have tried setting the AssemblyLinearVelocity as well as using ApplyImpulse The (current) code, a bit messy sorry. Also I'm aware the number is way too high, that's just for testing reasons.part.Touched:Connect(function(hit) local Humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") if Huma...

If anyone's curious on the use case:

I have a sphere controlled via WASD. The server calculates AssemblyLinearVelocity every tick based on forward, backward, left, right booleans set by client key presses. This works, but there's a slight delay due to latency, making controls less responsive, especially for high-ping players.

I'd like the client to also calculate AssemblyLinearVelocity for immediate responsiveness, while the server maintains overall control to prevent exploits. But I can't get AssemblyLinearVelocity to set on the client, so I'm kinda stuck
