Bad argument #1 to 'Connect' (RBX Script Signal expected, got function)?
local re = script.Parent:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local Animation = script:WaitForChild("Animation")
local an
local Attacked = false
local cooldown = 8
local Range = 100
local pause = function() an:AdjustSpeed(0)end
function windBlast(player,actionName, userInputState, inputObject)
local char = player.Character
local hum = char.Humanoid
if userInputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin and Attacked == false then
Attacked = true
an = hum:LoadAnimation(Animation)
an:AdjustSpeed(0.2)
an:GetMarkerReachedSignal("In").Connect(pause)
an:Play()
elseif userInputState == Enum.UserInputState.End and Attacked == true then
an:AdjustSpeed(1)
wait(cooldown)
Attacked = false
end
end
re.OnServerEvent:connect(windBlast)
So basically i am getting an weird error its this part here an:GetMarkerReachedSignal("In").Connect(pause) the Parameter is a "Strings" and returns RBXScriptSignal
at first i thought it was the server script so i tried a localscript but still got the same error.
I am unsure whats happening here any sugestions?

The error is the dot instead of a colon in the Connect call. If you want it to just work, replace it with a colon like this:
an:GetMarkerReachedSignal("In"):Connect(pause)
-- ^
The colon operator is shorthand for calling a method of an object, with the object as the first argument. So these two statements are the same for any method:
Part.Touched:Connect(onTouched) Part.Touched.Connect(Part.Touched, onTouched)
A second error I'm assuming after that is AdjustSpeed is not a valid member of an, because the definition of pause happens before an is set to a non-nil value. Maybe. But it's bad practice anyway, so what I'd recommend you to do is to just define the function in the :Connect() call, like so:
an:GetMarkerReachedSignal("In"):Connect(function()
an:AdjustSpeed(0)
end)
Hope that helps!
