How to pause and unpause animation based on Character Movement?

Asked by

I want a script that uses crouching animation, and when pressing a key it enables (but animation speed is 0) when character is moving animation speed is 1, and when character stops moving animation speed is 0 again. If they press the hotkey again, they are back to walking.

I have a script but there’s a problem where it only detects when I press the hotkey, not while I am walking. Video showing problem & what I want: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q_DGXxo3Hxlfujl1KzhPNL-SYIrgYnJU/view

The script I have currently:

01local Hotkey = "C"
02local PlayerSerivce = game:GetService("Players")
03local Player = PlayerSerivce.LocalPlayer
04local Character = Player.Character
05local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
06local AnimationID = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Crawl.AnimationId
07local CharacterAnimation
08game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
09    if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode[Hotkey] then
10        animation()
11    end
12end)
13function animation()
14    if Character then
15        local CrawlAnimation = Character:FindFirstChild("AnimationCharacter")
16        if CharacterAnimation then
17            CharacterAnimation:Stop()
18        end
19        if CrawlAnimation then
20            if CrawlAnimation.AnimationId == AnimationID then
21                CrawlAnimation:Destroy()
22                return
23            end
24            CrawlAnimation:Destroy()
25        end
26        local Animation =Instance.new("Animation",Character)
27        Animation.Name = "AnimationCharacter"
28        Animation.AnimationId = AnimationID
29        CharacterAnimation = Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
30        if Humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then
31            CharacterAnimation:Play()
32            CharacterAnimation:AdjustSpeed(1)
33        end
34        if Humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude <= 0 then
35            CharacterAnimation:Play()
36            CharacterAnimation:AdjustSpeed(0)
37        end
38    end
39end

i fixed the script for you, you need to detect if the player is moving using Humanoid.Running or walking so you can stop the animation when plr is not moving

01local Hotkey = "C"
02local PlayerSerivce = game:GetService("Players")
03local Player = PlayerSerivce.LocalPlayer
04local Character = Player.Character
05local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
06local CharacterAnimation
07local IsCrawl = false
08CharacterAnimation = Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script:WaitForChild("Crawl"))
09local function Animate()
10    Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 5
11    if not IsCrawl then
12        CharacterAnimation:Play()
13        CharacterAnimation:AdjustSpeed(0)
14        Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing, false)
15        Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, false)
16        IsCrawl = true
17        Humanoid.Running:Connect(function(speed)
18            if speed > 0 then
19                CharacterAnimation:AdjustSpeed(speed/5)
20            else
21                CharacterAnimation:AdjustSpeed(0)
22            end
23        end)
24    elseif IsCrawl then
25        IsCrawl = false
26        Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
27        CharacterAnimation:Stop()
28        Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing, true)
29        Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, true)
30    end
31end
32 
33game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
34    if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode[Hotkey] then
35        Animate()
36    end
37end)
