How to Remove Math Random Variable?
I've been really confused with animations and sword scripts for quite a while. Recently I found this code:
local Damage = 10
local CanAttack = true
local Tool = script.Parent
local Handle = Tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
local Character = Tool.Parent
local RaycastHitbox = require(Tool.RaycastHitbox)
local Hitbox = RaycastHitbox:Initialize(Tool, {Character})
Hitbox:PartMode(true)
local animations = {"4980024148","4980017811"}
local CanAttack = true
script.Parent.Activated:connect(function()
if CanAttack == true then
script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = true
local animation = Instance.new("Animation", script.Parent.Parent)
animation.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset?id="..animations[math.random(1, #animations)]
local chosenanim = script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
chosenanim:Play()
CanAttack = false
wait(1)
CanAttack = true
script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = false
end
end)
This code works perfectly however how would I remove the random variable? So animation 1 and 2 just play in sequence rather than random occurrence?
Example On click it Plays Animation 1 Animation 2 Animation 1 Animation 2
Instead of
Animation 1 Animation 1 Animation 1 Animation 2 etc just random

Use a variable to index the table. Add one for each use, if it's 3, then it becomes 1.
Here's my example using a click detector.
local Part = Instance.new("Part",workspace);
local CD = Instance.new("ClickDetector",Part);
Part.Position = Vector3.new(0,10,0)
local Dinner_Plate = {
'Carrot'; -- key/index 1
'Turkey'; -- key/index 2
};
local NumberValue = 1
CD.MouseClick:Connect(function()
NumberValue = NumberValue + 1
if NumberValue>=3 then
NumberValue = 1;
end;
print('Today, we will eat '..
Dinner_Plate[NumberValue]
);
end);
If you want, since there's only two values in that table, you can use a boolean which switches true to false and false to true with lua operator not.
local Part = Instance.new("Part",workspace);
local CD = Instance.new("ClickDetector",Part);
Part.Position = Vector3.new(0,10,0)
local Dinner_Plate = {
'Carrot'; -- key/index 1
'Turkey'; -- key/index 2
};
local BooleanValue = false
CD.MouseClick:Connect(function()
BooleanValue = not BooleanValue
print('Today, we will eat '..
Dinner_Plate[(BooleanValue and 1)or 2]
);
end);
