NPC Damage script not playing animation or other things?

Asked by

I've been going at this for around an hour now, and can't get my head around why it won't work. It's a damage script where if the NPC is below 65 health, it plays a hurt animation, as well as shows blood and changes face. However, when I change

if script.Parent.Health <= 65 then

to

if script.Parent.Health >= 65 then

it works perfectly but does above 65 health, but when I change it to <, symbolizing below, the script simply does not function. If you have a fix, PLEASE help me.

local humanoid = script.Parent
local cHealth = humanoid.Health
local animation = script.Parent.Parent.LowHealth
local LA = Instance.new("Animation")
LA.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5540835623"
local LowHealth = humanoid:LoadAnimation(LA)

if script.Parent.Health <= 65 then
    LowHealth:Play()
    script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = true
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = true
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = true
    wait(2)
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = false
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = false
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = false
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
elseif script.Parent.Health <= 45 then
    LowHealth:Play()
    script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
    script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
end

Because it doesn't constantly check if its health is low.

Try doing this:

local humanoid = script.Parent
local cHealth = humanoid.Health
local animation = script.Parent.Parent.LowHealth
local LA = Instance.new("Animation")
LA.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5540835623"
local LowHealth = humanoid:LoadAnimation(LA)

humanoid.Changed:Connect(function()
    if script.Parent.Health <= 65 then
        if LowHealth.IsPlaying == false then 
               LowHealth:Play()
        end
        script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = true
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = true
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = true
        wait(2)
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = false
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = false
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = false
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    elseif script.Parent.Health <= 45 then
        if LowHealth.IsPlaying == false then 
               LowHealth:Play()
        end
        script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
    end
end)

You have to place that code in a loop, so your code runs more than one time

local humanoid = script.Parent
local cHealth = humanoid.Health
local animation = script.Parent.Parent.LowHealth
local LA = Instance.new("Animation")
LA.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5540835623"
local LowHealth = humanoid:LoadAnimation(LA)

while true do -- The loop will make the code run infinitly
    if script.Parent.Health <= 65 then
        LowHealth:Play()
        script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = true
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = true
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = true
        wait(2)
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood.Enabled = false
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood2.Enabled = false
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Blood3.Enabled = false
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    elseif script.Parent.Health <= 45 then
        LowHealth:Play()
        script.Injured.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Head
        script.Parent.Parent.Head.Normal:Destroy()
    end
    wait(1) --Don't forget to add waits on all loops
end
