I am using a module script for the transformations of the players in the game. Basically, objects are placed into the character and modified, and an animation plays. The first transformation’s animation works just fine, but the power’s animation refuses to play. I wasn’t able to find an error (or maybe I wasn’t looking hard enough, I am new to scripting).
I have tried using Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation() instead of just Humanoid:LoadAnimation() since I saw it was deprecated but that also didn’t work.
This may be an issue of the script being parented directly to the StarterGui since I had problems when it was on a ScreenGui that had ResetOnSpawn to false (it would not update any of the player’s BoolValues if the character resets).
Here is how the buttons are organized:
Here is how that function script looks like:
local plr = script.Parent.Parent
local values = plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Values")
local function Transform()
if values.Transformed.Value == false and values.Transforming.Value == false then
if plr.Character:WaitForChild("Relique").Number.Value == 1 then
local Module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Modules.Transformations.Panther)
Module.Transform(plr)
elseif plr.Character:WaitForChild("Relique").Number.Value == 3 then
local Module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Modules.Transformations.Panda)
Module.Transform(plr)
end
elseif values.Transformed.Value == true and values.Transforming.Value == false then
if plr.Character:WaitForChild("Relique").Number.Value == 3 then
local Module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Modules.Transformations.Panda)
Module.Detransform(plr)
elseif plr.Character:WaitForChild("Relique").Number.Value == 1 then
local Module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Modules.Transformations.Panther)
Module.Detransform(plr)
end
end
end
local function Power1()
if values.Transformed.Value == true and values.Transforming.Value == false then
if plr.Character:WaitForChild("Relique").Number.Value == 1 then
local Module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Modules.Transformations.Panther)
Module.Decimate(plr)
else
end
end
end
