Why doesn't my animation play in online mode?

I'm making some tools that rely on animations to work. However, the animations continue to break and not work in online mode. They may occasionally work in solo mode, but then they break, and I have to go into the animation object and cut the code, then paste it back in. It keeps working and then breaking like that and I'm sick of it! Please help! Everything is defined and stuff, just the animation continues to break.

Posted below is the code in case there are any scripting errors.

01local animation = script:FindFirstChild("swingAxe")
02 
03local animTrack = nil
04 
05local canPlay = true
06 
07local swinging = script.Parent.swinging
08 
09function playSwingAnim()
10    if canPlay then
11        local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
12        canPlay = false
13        animTrack = player:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(animation)
14        swinging.Value = true
15        animTrack.KeyframeReached:connect(function(keyframeName)
16            if keyframeName == "End" then
17                canPlay = true
18                swinging.Value = false
19            end
20        end)
21        animTrack:Play()
22    end
23end
24 
25script.Parent.Equipped:connect(function(m)
26    m.Button1Down:connect(function()
27        playSwingAnim()
28    end)
29end)
