ever since i re-scripted this to be more flexible, dying while ragdolled isn't gonna let you respawn. if you want i can also give the ragdoll module it may be the cause of the problem..

that script connects to player.CharacterAdded, so it could be.

what is this snippet of your code supposed to do?

...
-- Function: Ball click handler
function ballClicked(player)
    -- Add all valid players to the game
    for _, playerp in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
        if playerp.Character and playerp.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Health > 0 then
            if not table.find(playersInGame, playerp) then
                table.insert(playersInGame, playerp)
                replicatedStorage.EventStarted:FireAllClients()
                replicatedStorage.BallClicked:FireAllClients(player)  -- Fire event to clients
                print("fired all events.")

                -- Define player death handling
                local diedFunction = function()
                    print(playerp.Name .. " died!")
                    table.remove(playersInGame, table.find(playersInGame, playerp))
                    replicatedStorage.PlayerDied:FireAllClients(playerp)

                    -- Reconnect on respawn
                    playerp.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
                        character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
                        if not table.find(playersInGame, playerp) then
                            table.insert(playersInGame, playerp)
                            print(playerp.Name .. " has respawned and rejoined the game.")
                        end
                    end)
                end

                -- Clean up existing connections
                if connections["connection1"] then
                    connections["connection1"]:Disconnect()
                end

                connections["connection1"] = playerp.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(diedFunction)
            end
        end
    end
...```

shrewd merlin that script connects to player.CharacterAdded, so it could be. what is this sni...

basically it just handles events

#

oh wait i thought u meant the whole function

#

that just adds the players in the game

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:29 PM

#

did you write this code?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:29 PM

#

only half of it before encountering alot of problems

#

then i had to ask ai but before it was a bit more simple

for _, playerp in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
    if playerp.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Health ~= 0 then
        if not table.find(playersInGame, playerp) then
            --print(playerp.Name)
            table.insert(playersInGame, playerp)
            replicatedStorage.EventStarted:FireAllClients()
            local diedFunction = function ()
                print(playerp.Name.. " dieded so hard lole!!!!!")
                table.remove(playersInGame, table.find(playersInGame, playerp))
                replicatedStorage.PlayerDied:FireAllClients(playerp)
            end

            connections["connection1"] = playerp.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(diedFunction)
        end
    end
end

#

chatgpt can't handle code longer than 4 lines 🙄

#

and even then still makes things up

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:31 PM

#

i guess so, so do i just add the original script back?

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:31 PM

#

what are you trying to do?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:31 PM

#

well im trying to make the game stop making me not respawn if im ever ragdolled

#

cause for some reason if i die while ragdolled i wont even respawn at all

#

but if i die normally (wont ragdoll me or just use the on death ragdoll i stole on free models) it will let me respawn

#

and ive been trying to like fix this for days on end ever since i changed the MainGame script

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:32 PM

#

what kind of ragdoll?

#

did you make the ragdoll thing yourself, or toolbox?

#

or ai?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:33 PM

#

the ragdoll module i also stole but on youtube

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:33 PM

#

that's not that much better

#

better, but not by much

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

this is like the script itself

local ragdoll = {}

function ragdoll.Start(character)
local hum = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if not hum then return end

local ragdollValue = character:FindFirstChild("Ragdoll")
if not ragdollValue then
    ragdollValue = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    ragdollValue.Name = "Ragdoll"
    ragdollValue.Value = false
    ragdollValue.Parent = character
end

if ragdollValue.Value then return end
ragdollValue.Value = true

for _, joint in pairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
    if joint:IsA("Motor6D") then
        local socket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
        local a0 = Instance.new("Attachment")
        local a1 = Instance.new("Attachment")

        a0.Parent = joint.Part0
        a0.CFrame = joint.C0
        a1.Parent = joint.Part1
        a1.CFrame = joint.C1

        socket.Parent = joint.Parent
        socket.Attachment0 = a0
        socket.Attachment1 = a1
        socket.LimitsEnabled = true
        socket.TwistLimitsEnabled = true

        joint.Enabled = false
    end
end

hum.WalkSpeed = 0
hum.JumpPower = 0
hum.PlatformStand = true
hum.AutoRotate = false

end

function ragdoll.Stop(character)
local hum = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if not hum then return end

local ragdollValue = character:FindFirstChild("Ragdoll")
if ragdollValue then
    ragdollValue.Value = false
end

for _, joint in pairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
    if joint:IsA("BallSocketConstraint") then
        joint:Destroy()
    elseif joint:IsA("Motor6D") then
        joint.Enabled = true
    end
end

hum.PlatformStand = false
hum:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.GettingUp)
hum.WalkSpeed = 16
hum.JumpPower = 50
hum.AutoRotate = true

end

return ragdoll

#

the problem is probably--

#

i'm not debugging random youtube tutorials for you

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

yeah i know

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

the problem is probably somewhere in that code you copied

#

i've seen it copied wrong

#

comes up a lot...

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

it was like a modelthat i just had to ungroup and put in serverscriptservice

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

quasi notch cause for some reason if i die while ragdolled i wont even respawn at all

reset character in the roblox menu at the least should respawn as normal

#

no matter the condition of your character

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

yeah but it also lets me respawn if i use a killbrick

#

but when i get ragdolled and then i hit a killbrick

#

then i wont respawn at all

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

quasi notch then i wont respawn at all

i meant if you reset character while in that state, does it respawn you or no?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

it did let me respawn like only 1-2 times sometimes then it wont let me respawn at all

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

shrewd merlin i meant if you reset character while in that state, does it respawn you or no?

it does not respawn me at all

#

it just goes back to where it started off and started regenerating my health

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

quasi notch it does not respawn me at all

the one in the roblox menu?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

no the reset button works fine

#

its just if im in ragdolled and im dead then the reset button wont work

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:39 PM

#

quasi notch ever since i re-scripted this to be more flexible, dying while ragdolled isn't ...

what do you mean when you say respawned? coz of reset character works, then the character isn't dead, and i dont think your script will interfere with that unless it throws errors

#

idk this is what happens when you try to mash together ai code with toolbox code and expect things to work

#

you're working with forces you dont understand :/

#

you can maybe post a job in #💵︱hiring and someone may be interested to fix your weird ragdoll and tutorial copy

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:42 PM

#

shrewd merlin what do you mean when you say respawned? coz of reset character works, then the ...

#

maybe ill just try to modify the original script

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:44 PM

#

frogger?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:45 PM

#

huh

#

ok yeah no the mainmodule is the problem 😭

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

script errors?

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

none

#

i just know it is the mainmodule cause if i disable it while the on death ragdoll is still enabled it would let me respawn

#

and if i enable mainmodule but disable the other one it wont let me respawn

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:51 PM

#

quasi notch this is like the script itself local ragdoll = {} function ragdoll.Start(chara...

so i'm testing some of this and this just kills the player

#

maybe you have a custom character loader

#

who knows how much other random stuff you have copied into your project 🤷

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 5:51 PM

#

i only used the ondeathragdoll and also the mainmodule

#

and a sign cause i cant figure out sufarcegui

#

thats all i borrowed in the toolbox

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:52 PM

#

practice ;o

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

quasi notch i only used the ondeathragdoll and also the mainmodule

its probably the ondeathragdoll throwing an error when you click while dead-ragdolled expecting a respawn

#

who knows 🤷

quasi notch Jan 23, 2025, 6:02 PM

#

eh maybe ill js try to make a custom ragdoll script that might work with the game

#

actually nvm ill just rescript everything that needed a ragdoll to just do different things

shrewd merlin Jan 23, 2025, 6:21 PM

#

refactor is easier than writing from scratch, so that's a good idea

quasi notch Jan 24, 2025, 3:31 PM

#

Found the problem, basically the ragdoll script is interferring with the player, it literally disables respawning after death, even without Ai's modification

#

i guess that "best way to make ragdolls!" wasnt the best way

#Is this script interfering with respawn?
