Platform stand not working for NO REASON!!!!

[fluid vault]

I thought that the problem was the vector force, but it's NOT (thankfully. I thought it was this problem for a long time)! When i try to set the the platform stand to true (or whatever the way is to make the player trip), it doesnt work, I really would like to get some help as this could make my whole game actually playable, here's the chunk where I think it's the root of the problem (or it's the most important part of the script)

local function setupBallMovement()
    -- Movement update
    RunService:BindToRenderStep("BallMovement", 2, function()
        if isBall and char:WaitForChild("Playerball"):FindFirstChildWhichIsA("VectorForce") then
            print("e")
            
            
            
            local Playerball = char:WaitForChild("Playerball")
            local vectorForce = Playerball:WaitForChild("VectorForce")
            local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
            if hum.PlatformStand == false then
                if Playerball then
                    vectorForce.Force = calculateMovementForce()
                end
                print("VectorForce Force:", vectorForce.Force)
            else
                hum.PlatformStand = true
            end
        end
    end)
end

pls help

Do you have videos

to demonstrate the problem

[fluid vault]

uh yes

lemme record em

this is what the player sees

This is the output

btw i changed a bool now

btw the calculation for the vector force STOPS when i try to activate platform stand Mannually through the properties tab of the Humanoid

[timber musk]

Put a print after the hum.PlatformStand to see

If it works then it will print sth

[fluid vault]

Ok so, everything "works" but for some reason, the playerball (the ball that contains the player) does not get affected by the vector force

[timber musk]

try using greater force

[fluid vault]

Yes, i putted it to 9000000 force and it still doesnt move, it's not anchored

[timber musk]

did you apply the force on the ball or the character

and did the platform stand work

[fluid vault]

hmm, i found a way that's working

but

[fluid vault]

yes the platform stand is working, but the output is having a heart attack of prints

[fluid vault]

The vectorforce is inside the playerball, so i think it's applied to the playerball

[timber musk]

well then you should take a look again at your code logic first making sure the prints are in order

[fluid vault]

yeah, so I made that when the platform stand is true, it's setted to false, and when it's false it is setted to true

But i cant put that when the platform stand is true, it stays true because the whole thing breaks

I think it has to do with this first condition

OK, so it WAS that "isBall" thing

now the only thing left is why the force aint applied to the playerball

[timber musk]

firstly just try to apply a vector force on random part making sure it works

and then use that vector force on the ball

im clueless abt whats happening too

[fluid vault]

yeah

You can see that the ball has the vectorforce working, with massless too

but the force is like 1M or smth

(with massless)

wich is like an anomaly

[timber musk]

what abt try using other like assemblyLinearVelocity

[fluid vault]

doesnt it make you float?

It's better to use vector force

it is what is says on the roblox doc.

[timber musk]

nope that is not linearVelocity, it is AssemblyLinearVelocity

or sth i forgot

[fluid vault]

what did you forget

[timber musk]

AssemblyLinearVelocity
