Why isn't my animation stopping once I unequipped the tool?

Asked 182 views1 answers

Im making a chainsaw, where it plays an animation when you equip it, and it stops the animation once you unequipped it. However, the animation only stops when you click! Why is this? CODE:

tool = script.Parent
anim = tool.Animation
attacking = false
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	local animation = tool.Parent.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(anim)
	animation:Play()
	tool.Idle:Play()
	tool.Activated:Connect(function()
		tool.Rev:Play()
		tool.Idle:Stop()
		attacking = true
	tool.Deactivated:Connect(function()
		tool.Idle:Play()
		tool.Rev:Stop()
		attacking = false
	tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
		animation:Stop()
		tool.Rev:Stop()
		tool.Idle:Stop()
end)
	end)
	end)
end)
tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if attacking == true then
		if hit and hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):TakeDamage(50)
			tool.Oof:Play()
			hit:Destroy()
		end
		end
end)

This is because you are putting all of your events inside of events. You put your unequip event inside of deactivated, deactivated inside of activated, it’s confusing the script.

Separate your code like this:

tool.Equipped:Connect(function(mouse)
    -- run code for Equip event
    
    mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
        -- run code for Button down event 
    end)
    
    mouse.Button1Up:Connect(function()
        -- run code for the Button up event
    end)

end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
    -- run code for the Unequip event, in a new block of code
end)

Still won't work. Plus, it's a sound and not an animation
