Animation not stopping when being told to via script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am making a gun system and using animations in a server script to control it. The problem is when I tell the idle animation to stop it does not, it is on the “uneqip section” it plays the unequiptrack but does not stop the idle track here is the code:

--Weapon Handler--
weaponEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, eventType, tool)
	local humanoid = player.Character.Humanoid

	local equipTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(tool.weaponClient.Animations.Equip)
	local unequipTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(tool.weaponClient.Animations.Unequip)
	local idleTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(tool.weaponClient.Animations.Idle)
	local reloadTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(tool.weaponClient.Animations.Reload)
	local shootTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(tool.weaponClient.Animations.Shoot)
	
	if eventType == "Equip" then
		equipTrack:Play()
		wait(equipTrack.Length)
		idleTrack:Play()
		
	elseif eventType == "Unequip" then
		idleTrack:Stop()
		unequipTrack:Play()
		
	elseif eventType == "Shoot" then
		cloneShell(tool)
		shootTrack:Play()
		wait(gameModule.magTime)
		shell2:Destroy()
		
	elseif eventType == "Reload" then
		cloneMag(tool)
		reloadTrack:Play()
		wait(1)
		mag1.Transparency = 0
		wait(reloadTrack.Length - 1)
		weaponEvent:FireClient(player, "Reloaded")
		wait(gameModule.magTime - reloadTrack.Length - 1)
		mag2:Destroy()
	end
end)

You’re loading a new animation track into the humanoid every OnServerEvent, giving you a different reference each time. I would load the animations outside the OnServerEvent block, or have another statement to load them only once

ah that makes sense cuz each time it gets an event it makes another one, thank you.
