I have this issue with my animation system, in which I am forced to either allow the animations to play infinitely, or allow them to jolt and glitch.

Let me explain

I added line 44 in an attempt to stop the update rolled out by ROBLOX which broke all animations and as a result was said to be disregarded by the OP. See the link here http://devforum.roblox.com/t/animation-optimization-fixes/25450/2

However, with that line in firing, the animations jolt before playing in a very obnoxious way. See here https://gyazo.com/eb3898db20a74a07fe2de35bdaac2d7b

But if I remove this line, the animations seem to play non stop, disregarding the idle animation.

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place and I could use a hand. Thanks in advance!
