Animation is reverse, when i equip the tool

[platonarhipov (DrJoe)]

Hello, im making a mafia game with voice chat feature. and i animated and scripted Revolver. and i set animation priority to Action(Action - Recommended priority for character actions that must override idle and locomotion animations.)

And i test the game, equip the tool, and animation is reversing.

Help me fix the bug, i tried all animation priority and it’s not working

Can you show us how the animation should look like by showing it through whatever tool you use to create animations?

Well, i use moon animator 2 to animate it, and when i publish to roblox, reverse bug happend when i tested the game and equip the tool. I imported to roblox animator editor to change animation priority, it’s not fixed the problem.

Can I see the script of the animation loading when the tool is equipped?

--[[
REVOLVER CLIENT SCRIPT
BY DRJOEDEV
FROM MIC_MAFIA
]]--


-- Tool Varibles
local Tool = script.Parent
local Handle = Tool.Handle

-- ReplicatedStorage, Modules, Models
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RevloverModule = require(RS.Modules.Weapons.Revolver_Module)

-- Player Varibles

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humnaoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

-- Animation's ID
local EquipID = "rbxassetid://17791365163"

local EquipAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
EquipAnim.AnimationId = EquipID

local RevolverWorker = RevloverModule.Start(Humnaoid,Tool,Handle)

Tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	local HumanoidEquipAnim = Humnaoid:LoadAnimation(EquipAnim)
	HumanoidEquipAnim:Play()
	task.wait(0.5)
	HumanoidEquipAnim:Pause()
end)

I already have a module that you paste ID of animation it will play it (writed in OOP).
But in client script i did use it, and immediately delete code and use standard method, if this is problem with my code, idk i write code very well

Humnaoid:LoadAnimation(EquipAnim)

This is probably the problem, as Humanoid:LoadAnimation() is deprecated. You should use Animator:LoadAnimation(), which is an instance parented under the Humanoid instance.

Well i searched in roblox wiki what is a Animator mean?(Animator | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub)

And i tried use animator from humanoid(it’s said in roblox documentation), and still don’t fix the bug.

pausing the anim is not exactly a reliable method to make an idle animation, since roblox is kinda weird.

a better solution would be to make a separate idle animation (you could copy and paste ur equip anim’s last keyframes) and have it loop, then you can do this:

-- ur previous stuff above --

local IdleId = -- insert id here
local IdleAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
IdleAnim.AnimationId = IdleId

Tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	local HumanoidEquipAnim = Humnaoid:LoadAnimation(EquipAnim) -- u wrote humnaoid in the variables btw
	local HumanoidIdleAnim = Humnaoid:LoadAnimation(IdleAnim)
	HumanoidEquipAnim:Play()
	HumanoidEquipAnim.Stopped:Connect(function() -- <-- this isn't completely necessary but it's just nice to have over the task.wait() incase u wanna change the anim anytime
		HumanoidIdleAnim:Play()
	end)
end)

tell me if it works. kudos

it’s works! Thank you so much.
