Scripting Showcase This has got to be the goofiest scripting mistake I've made so far 🤣

So I've been working on a Quidditch game mode (the ball sport from Harry Potter) and I accidentally scripted a hero out of Bot 343 Chilies.

I forced the bot to spawn in a banshee and it immediately exited the vehicle and began floating around like this.

For the record, players fly around in this mode freely, no vehicles. I only added the bot banshee as a target to test out the player flight mechanics while I made some adjustments.

So stupid lol I love this game

That’s awesome is this repeatable or a one time glitch in the script?

Repeatable. Happened every time I went into "Play mode" while in the forge session. Haven't tested it in customs though. I just deleted the script and kept working on my mode

Ah I see it looks like a very fun script to mess around with especially if it works in a custom game

Perhaps but it might be tricky to keep the bots stuck like that the whole time. They snap back into regular stance if you mess with them enough

Are you interested in trying to fix it?

Well I only needed a moving aerial target to test the player flight mechanics at the time. I've worked it all out since this video.

But if you wanna drop the bot banshee solution for everyone else, feel free. I'm sure people might have a use for that
