Animations delayed and Humanoid walking itself [50% Fixed]

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi reader,

I’m making a Titanfall 2 styled game and I thought id get the mechs out of the way first. I have made a transfer system where the player gets inside the mech and takes control. However, the animations are really delayed for the player. The mech also runs off when I get out while its moving. I have already fixed the mechs delayed animations but I have not fixed the player running animation and the mech running off.

If anyone knows a fix or a reduce tip. That would be nice.

EDIT: I have fixed the mech running off issue by countering it with a pathfinding AI. Still need to fix player anims though.

what happens to the character once it enters mech? Do you completely destroy Character and replace Player.Character = CustomMech?

If this is done, make sure that you set the network ownership of all parts in the new character to the player. Not doing so could cause lag.

im having an issue with my dead corpse, which is a clone of a ragdolled character, is standing instead of ragdolled like character. do you know why this is happening? I even tried setting network ownership to nil for all the parts with getdescendants. No idea what to do!

The character sets move to a folder in replicated storage, then back into workspace and repositioned infront of the mech HRP.

I forgot to do this lol.

Edit: Would I need to set the network ownership everytime I change the players character to the mech?

yeah that is important to get all the baseparts of mech and :SetNetworkOwner(player). then when they exit the Mech set it back to :SetNetworkOwner(nil). This will make less lag when moving mech.

Do you know how to stop the repeating walk animations when I’m not walking? or how to stop the mech from running off?

local Character = Player.Character
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

-- This stops all animation tracks
for i,v in pairs(Humanoid:GetPlayingAnimationTracks()) do
	v:Stop()
end

-- Get Animate Script and Play Standing Anim.
local Track = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Character:WaitForChild("Animate"):WaitForChild("idle"):WaitForChild("Animation1"))
Track:Play()

Humanoid.PlatformStand = true -- Freeze Robot

Must re-enable walking with:

Humanoid.PlatformStand = false -- unFreeze Robot
