So this was a code for sprinting that i made. I made a seperate script taht would play an animation, and I wanted to make sure people couldn't walk during this. The problem is that it works until you press left shift, and after you do so it would let you walk around. I tried fixing this with a variable and adding "and" to my if conditions but it didnt work,

the script is a sprint toggle

#

but i have this thing where if you press a button, an animation is played

#

i wanted to ensure you couldn't walk during this animation

okay so just disable sprint toggling during the animation and then set the player's character's humaoid's walkspeed a jump power to 0 temporarily

#

make sure your animation is Enum.Action4 too (highest priority)

do which part

shadow skiff
leaden apex
#

okay regardless just do what I said, Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0, Humanoid.JumpPower = 0

#

wont be able to move even if theyre inputting

shadow skiff
leaden apex
#

because you're setting their walkspeed up/down

#

you need to make it so they can't sprint toggle during the cutscene

shadow skiff
#

idk how else to do it

leaden apex
#

just set it to false, then send another signal when the cutscene is over, and set it to true

shadow skiff
#

still doesnt work

# 
        print("Event Fired")
        Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
        print("set to 0")
        local cansprint = false
        print("var set to false")
        task.wait(5)
        Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
        local cansprint = true
        print("set to true")
    end
end)```
#

these were my last few lines of code

#

still didnt work

#

the print lines were me trying to debug

leaden apex
#

the event itself is always going to be true

#

you would need to do UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function()
code
end)

#

but you already also have an InputBegan connection, so why make a new one?

i changed it to that since i needed the event but not the input began thing

leaden apex

yah that should work
