Why do these animations not work in-game?
01 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | repeat wait() until player.Character.Humanoid |
03 | local humanoid = player.Character.Humanoid |
04 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
05 | local saluteButton = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").MobileEmotes.Salute |
06 |
07 | local anim = Instance.new("Animation") |
08 | anim.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=5191369819" |
09 |
10 |
11 |
12 |
13 | local function onClick() |
14 | local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(anim) |
15 | playAnim:Play() |
16 | end |
17 |
18 | saluteButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onClick) |
yes, this script works in Roblox Studio, but when I go onto an actual game server it does not work, can someone please help me out?

The problem here is that you are indexing character with humanoid, and sometimes it doesn't exist and may error.
To fix this you could wait for the character and humanoid, maybe doing this.
1 | local character = players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait() |
Wich is better than using repeat wait() until character
So, implementing this to your code.
01 | local players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local player = players.LocalPlayer |
03 | local character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait() or player.Character |
04 | local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid") |
05 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
06 | local saluteButton = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").MobileEmotes.Salute |
07 |
08 | local anim = Instance.new("Animation") |
09 | anim.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=5191369819" |
10 |
11 |
12 | local function onClick() |
13 | local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(anim) |
14 | playAnim:Play() |
15 | end |
16 |
17 | saluteButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onClick) |
