I want the tool to play an animation once clicked, help?

local Tool = script.Parent;
enabled = true




function onActivated(player)
    if not enabled  then
        return
    end

    enabled = false
local animation = player:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local rawr = Tool:FindFirstChild("DrinkAnimation")
animation:LoadAnimation(rawr)


    Tool.Handle.DrinkSound:Play()

    enabled = true

end

function onEquipped()
print("Equipped")
end

script.Parent.Activated:connect(onActivated)
script.Parent.Equipped:connect(onEquipped)

error: attempt to index local 'player' (a nil value) any way to make this work?

Activated event of Tool doesn't pass the Player as argument. What you need to do is access local player on start of your code.

wait(0.1) -- This is a good convention to make sure client variables have loaded
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

Then, use that player variable instead.

The second problem is that you are only loading the animation. What :LoadAnimation does, it creates an AnimationTrack which you need to play.

local rawrAnim = animation:LoadAnimation(rawr)
rawrAnim:Play()

Hope this helped.

Seriously? I provided you with the fixes to your code. You should have taken them and put them into your code. LetThereBeCode 360 — 8y
