Why does loadanimation not work in my script, and says humanoid needs of be descendant of game?
there's a character and humanoid varible, but everytime I tried to use this, it would always say humanoid needs to be a descendant of game object to use loadanimation, or something along those lines.
local start = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Character:WaitForChild("Animations"):WaitForChild("MagicStart"))

You could add a wait(3) or whatever number you want after local start = GottaHaveAFunTime 218 — 6y

You haven't given it enough time to load for the humanoid, or as so I think. Do this, then run that.
(variable):WaitForChild('humanoid')
local start = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Character:WaitForChild("Animations"):WaitForChild("MagicStart"))

True but there's more to it than that CootKitty 311 — 6y

No, or else it would not error the same error. hiimgoodpack 2009 — 6y

So, often times people do this:
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Waiti()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local animationTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(x)
However, this doesn't work often times.
The reason why is that, even though the player has a character, the character doesn't get put into workspace by the game instantly. So simply use this:
-- local script
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Waiti()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
char.Parent = workspace
local start = humanoid:LoadAnimation(char:WaitForChild("Animations"):WaitForChild("MagicStart"))
-- when you want: start:Play()

The reason that does not work is because you misspelled :Wait() hiimgoodpack 2009 — 6y
