Animations stop moving after a few seconds

#1

I have a boat which has a script that welds everything but the model is for the animation is not affected by the script but still the animation does not move I have no idea why.

it used to work but i’ve found it only works if the part with the motor is anchored which makes it so the boat cannot move.
The model is still moving around but I cannot see it moving.

Could you provide the script you used?

#3

The script for the welding script is just a free model qPerfectionWeld script.

There are many scripts with that name, could you please just paste the script?

Do you anchor your antenna or no?

#9

The antenna are not anchored as they are a part of the motor.
