How can I force a player to move forward? [closed]

Please include the code which you are trying to use, so the community will be better-equipped to help you with your problem.

So basically I want to force a player to move in the direction their HumanoidRootPart is facing.

I tried doing a few things and every time it would go a random direction or just stop working at one point.

I tried using the lookVector of the HumanoidRootPart and it didn't work.

You can force the character to move using the :MoveTo() function of Humanoids. If you place a part in front of the player, you can force them to continuously move by welding it (the part will be at a fixed offset) and setting the player to move to the part continuously.

Example Script

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
    Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
        local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
        local Root = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

        local part = Instance.new("Part")
        part.Name = "FollowMe"
        part.Anchored = false
        part.CanCollide = false
        part.Transparency = 1
        part.Parent = Character

        local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
        weld.Parent = part
        weld.Part1 = part
        weld.Part0 = Root
        weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0, 0, -10)

        repeat
            Humanoid:MoveTo(part.Position)
            wait()
        until nil
    end)
end)

This however doesn't prevent the player from unbinding the movement themselves, but the loop will prevent them from effectively stopping walking.
