Animation doesnt stop when the tool is Unequipped?
I have a tool and its got some animation and when you unequip the tool its supposed to stop the animation but it doesnt.
Heres the code, its inside a script not a local script
local CanAnimate = true
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
AttackAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.AttackAnimation)
IdleAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.IdleAnimation)
IdleAnimation:Play()
end)
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
if CanAnimate == true then
AttackAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.AttackAnimation)
IdleAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.IdleAnimation)
CanAnimate = false
script.Parent.CanAttack.Value = true
IdleAnimation:Stop()
AttackAnimation:Play()
wait(1)
IdleAnimation:Play()
CanAnimate = true
end
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
IdleAnimation = script.parent.parent.parent.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.IdleAnimation)
IdleAnimation:Stop()
end)
Thank you for your time, I know its messy with the all the ".parents" everywhere but thats because ive been experimenting trying to get it working. So far it doesnt error but it also doesnt stop the animation.
Thank you for your time :)

I would structure that a little differently.
local CanAnimate = true
AttackAnimation = nil
IdleAnimation = nil
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
AttackAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.AttackAnimation)
IdleAnimation = script.parent.parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Handle.IdleAnimation)
IdleAnimation:Play()
end)
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
if CanAnimate == true then
CanAnimate = false
script.Parent.CanAttack.Value = true
IdleAnimation:Stop()
AttackAnimation:Play()
wait(1)
IdleAnimation:Play()
CanAnimate = true
end
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
AttackAnimation:Stop() -- Clean up
IdleAnimation:Stop()
AttackAnimation = nil
IdleAnimation = nil
end)
I think your problem is that you are creating a new AnimationTrack everytime so the track currently playing doesnt get stopped. So what I did here was make it so the animation only loads when equipped then is destroyed when you unequip.
