  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    The animation does not play when theres a 3 second cooldown.

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    The animation plays when theres a cooldown.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I’ve tried making a topic, multiple web searches, and does not ever get close to fixing my problem.


local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local char = script.Parent
local playAnim

local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.E
local canslide = true
local debounce = 3

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameprocessed)
	if gameprocessed then return end
	if not canslide then return end

	if input.KeyCode == keybind and canslide then
		local slideAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
		slideAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://9157679954"
		canslide = false

			playAnim = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(slideAnim)
			playAnim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action2
			playAnim:Play()


		local slide = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
		slide.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1,0,1) * 30000
		slide.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 100
		slide.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart

		for count = 1, 8 do
			wait(0.1)
			slide.Velocity*= 0.7
		end
		playAnim:Stop()
		slide:Destroy()
		wait(debounce)
		canslide = true
	end
end)

This should work as intended, I don’t see the problem.

Edit: I can try writing something similar but it’s up to you

#3

Instead of loading the animation through humanoid, consider using the Animator

How can this work with this script

#5

Animator should be a child of Humanoid, you can run the game and see it for yourself in the explorer

#6

so…

local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

?

#7

That’s correct. Consider using the Animator docs I linked you.

#8

Ok but one question.

I saw the example in that docs you sent, what does animationtrack return, and is it important here?

return animationTrack
#9

Animation Track is created when you call the Load method on the animator. They’re simply returning it to have access to it somewhere else.

Probably dumb but, I can’t dash (Velocity not changing )and nothing changed, It’s still running in cooldown

-- Put "Slide Ability" in StarterPlayer and StarterCharacterScripts

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local char = script.Parent
local humanoid = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.E
local canslide = true
local debounce = 3

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameprocessed)
	if gameprocessed then return end
	if not canslide then return end

	if input.KeyCode == keybind and canslide then
		local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
		animator.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://9157679954"
		canslide = false

			local playAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animator)
		playAnim:Play()


		local slide = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
		slide.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1,0,1) * 30000
		slide.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 100
		slide.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart

		for count = 1, 8 do
			wait(0.1)
			slide.Velocity*= 0.7
		end
		playAnim:Stop()
		slide:Destroy()
		wait(debounce)
		canslide = true
	end
end)

That’s not how you load an animation using the animator. Take a look closely at the example provided in the docs. You have to use the LoadAnimation method on the Animator not the Humanoid.

#12 
			local playAnim = animator:LoadAnimation(animator)
		playAnim:Play()
#13

Exact same error!
I can’t dash (velocity,) and it still moves when cooldown???
I am genuinely confused right now

You tried to index AnimationID to Animator. Try this:

-- Put "Slide Ability" in StarterPlayer and StarterCharacterScripts
--                        Enjoy This Ability

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local char = script.Parent
local humanoid = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.E
local canslide = true
local debounce = 3

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameprocessed)
	if gameprocessed then return end
	if not canslide then return end

	if input.KeyCode == keybind and canslide then
		local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
		local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
		animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://9157679954"
		canslide = false

		local playAnim = animator:LoadAnimation(animator)
		playAnim:Play()


		local slide = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
		slide.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1,0,1) * 30000
		slide.Velocity = char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.lookVector * 100
		slide.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart

		for count = 1, 8 do
			wait(0.1)
			slide.Velocity*= 0.7
		end
		playAnim:Stop()
		slide:Destroy()
		wait(debounce)
		canslide = true
	end
end)
