Animations not running with other network owner

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello this might be a bug but I’m wondering why animations are acting weird/not running.

This is for a train with a driver who is always the network owner. I have proximity prompts that run a animation when you sit. This is done on the server so I assumed it should run all the time and everyone should be able to see it.

Here is a example in a test world:

Animation Bug.rbxl (55.0 KB)

This is part of the script that plays the animation

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
    local animatior = seat.Occupant and seat.Occupant:FindFirstChild("Animator")

    if animatior then 
    	AnimTrack = animatior:LoadAnimation(script.SittingAnimation)
    	AnimTrack.Looped = true
    	AnimTrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Idle
    	AnimTrack:Play()
    	print("Playing Animation")
    elseif AnimTrack then
    	AnimTrack:Stop()
    	AnimTrack:Remove()
    	print("Stoped Playing Animation")
    end
end)

You should play animations on players from their client. It can cause weird behavior from my experience if you don’t.

Were you able to solve that problem? I’m facing a similar issue with the doors of my train :frowning:
