Animation not stopping. And not switching to new animation to play

[MaxPlayzOfficialYt (Maxii)]

I’m trying to make an viewport frame to show the animation. But when i change the value when playtesting. The previous animation won’t stop. And the new one won’t play after the new animation.

My code so far

local emotePreviewCharacter = script.Parent
local humanoid = emotePreviewCharacter.Humanoid
local animationID = script.Emoted

local currentTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Emoted)
currentTrack:Play()

animationID:GetPropertyChangedSignal("AnimationId"):Connect(function()
	humanoid:Destroy()
	local newHumanoid = Instance.new("Humanoid")
	newHumanoid.Parent = script.Parent
	humanoid = newHumanoid
	local newAnimator = Instance.new("Animator")
	newAnimator.Parent = humanoid
	
	wait(0.1)
	local newTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Emoted)
	newTrack:Play()
end)

you’re destroying the existing Humanoid and creating a new one, this is an unusual approach and leads to unexpected behavior, such as animations not stopping or starting correctly…

Instead of destroying the Humanoid you should just stop the current playing animation track and then load and play the new animation. I made an example

local emotePreviewCharacter = script.Parent
local humanoid = emotePreviewCharacter:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local animationID = script:WaitForChild("Emoted")

local currentTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animationID)
currentTrack:Play()

local function playNewAnimation()
    if currentTrack then
        currentTrack:Stop() 
        currentTrack = nil
    end

    currentTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animationID)
    currentTrack:Play()
end

animationID:GetPropertyChangedSignal("AnimationId"):Connect(playNewAnimation)

Thanks! This solution works. I don’t know why I did the destroy humanoid to stop the animation. Looking back, I feel silly about doing that.
