You have not posted enough code to evaluate the issue.

We need to see the player.

How does it not work? Do you get an error? What do you expect to happen versus what really happens?

use whatever you use or collision, but check for a specific tile and slow the speed when on that tile.
*This is assuming you have collision with raycasts, this could easily be the most useless attempt at help here, i should probably have more caffeine.

Add prints to check if the functions run as expected.

Your trying to change a constant. That’s gonna cause issues. Make speed a variable.
