Bat Stays Still During Animation

Help and Feedback Art Design Support

I made a swing animation, but for some reason the bat moves differently then I animated it.

Go back in the animation. Change the animation priority to action. Then override the published animation. See if that works.

It was previously at Action3, I have now changed it to action4, it still doesn’t work.
Here’s the script if it might help.

local tool = script.Parent
local Idle = Instance.new("Animation")
local Equip = Instance.new("Animation")
local Swing = Instance.new("Animation")

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local handle = tool.Handle

Idle.Name = "IdleAnim"
Idle.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://10662611565" -- Idle animaton ID here

Equip.Name = "EquipAnim"
Equip.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://10723444666" -- Idle animaton ID here

Swing.Name = "SwingAnim"
Swing.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://10662345775" -- Idle animaton ID here

local children = tool.Handle:GetChildren()


local track

local debounce = false

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	
	track = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Equip)
	track.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action
	track:Play()
	track:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Invisible"):Connect(function()
		tool.Handle.Transparency = 1
		
		tool.Handle.CanCollide = false
		
		for i,part in ipairs(tool:GetDescendants()) do
			if  part:IsA("Part") or  part:IsA("MeshPart") then

			part.Transparency = 1
			--this code runs whenever its part or meshpart
		end
		end
	       
		
		
		
	end)
	
	track:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Visible"):Connect(function()
		tool.Handle.Transparency = 0
		tool.Handle.CanCollide = true
		
		for i,part in ipairs(tool:GetDescendants()) do
			if part:IsA("Part") or  part:IsA("MeshPart") then 

			part.Transparency = 0 
			--this code runs whenever its part or meshpart
			end
			end
	end)
	track.Stopped:Wait()
	
	track = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Idle)
	track.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action2
	track:Play()
end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	if track then
		track:Stop()
	end
end)

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	
	debounce = true
	
	track = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Swing)
	track.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4
	track:Play()
	
	
		handle.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
			if Hit:IsA("Part") or Hit:IsA("MeshPart") then
				if Hit.Parent ~= character then
					local EHumRP = Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
					local Humanoid = Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

				if Humanoid then
					Humanoid:TakeDamage(20)
				end
			end
			end
	end)
	
	track.Stopped:Wait()
	
	debounce = false
	
	
			
	
end)

Animating the handle’s CFrame wouldn’t work as it is locked to the player’s right arm grip attachment, offsetted and rotated based on four parameters on the tool (shown below). To make the bat angle and offset it’s position, you would have animate the grip positions. I’m not sure if Moon Animator or any other animation plugins are capable of animating grip positions.

Hm, I’ll look more into it.

Hiya, I’ve made a similar system that I haven’t really tested to solve this issue. Does the animating rig have the tool’s handle with a Motor6D in the right arm? Your tool is likely doing that because of Roblox - Roblox automatically creates a weld within the right arm of a character if a tool has a handle. If the Motor6D you animated the tool with is inside the right arm, here is a script to fix this issue:
[Script named Motor6D within the tool]

function createmotor()
	local right_arm = Tool.Parent:WaitForChild('Right Arm')
	
	if right_arm:FindFirstChildOfClass('Weld') then
	right_arm:FindFirstChildOfClass('Weld'):Destroy()
	end
	local sr = script:WaitForChild('move'):Clone()	
	
	m6d = Instance.new('Motor6D')
	m6d.Name = 'bat6D'
	m6d.Part0 = right_arm
	if script.Parent:FindFirstChild('Handle') then
	m6d.Part1 = script.Parent:FindFirstChild('Handle')
	m6d.CurrentAngle = 0
	m6d.DesiredAngle = 0
	m6d.MaxVelocity = 1000
	m6d.Parent = right_arm
	sr.Disabled = false
	sr.Parent = m6d
	end
end

function onEquipped()
	if Tool.Parent:FindFirstChild('Right Arm') then
		createmotor()
	end
end

function destroy6d()
	if m6d then
		m6d:Destroy()
	end
	m6d = nil
end

Tool.Equipped:connect(onEquipped)
Tool.Unequipped:connect(destroy6d)

[Script named ‘move’ (without the quotes) parented to the script]

if script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('RightGrip') then

script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('RightGrip'):Destroy()

end

Not sure if this is exploitable or not.

Hm, Sorry for getting back so late, I was kind of busy. My motor6D is parented to the HUMRP to make animation a slight bit easier, so maybe if I modify it, it might also help me out, thanks though.

You can disregard the following post if you’ve fixed that -

function createmotor()
	local right_arm = Tool.Parent:WaitForChild('Right Arm')
	
	if right_arm:FindFirstChildOfClass('Weld') then
	right_arm:FindFirstChildOfClass('Weld'):Destroy()
	end
	sr = script:WaitForChild('move'):Clone()	
	
	m6d = Instance.new('Motor6D')
	m6d.Name = 'bat6D'
	m6d.Part0 = right_arm.Parent:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
	if script.Parent:FindFirstChild('Handle') then
	m6d.Part1 = script.Parent:FindFirstChild('Handle')
	m6d.CurrentAngle = 0
	m6d.DesiredAngle = 0
	m6d.MaxVelocity = 1000
	m6d.Parent = right_arm.Parent:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
	sr.Disabled = false
	sr.Parent = m6d
	end
end

function onEquipped()
	if Tool.Parent:FindFirstChild('Right Arm') then
		createmotor()
	end
end

function destroy6d()
	if m6d then
		m6d:Destroy()
	end
	m6d = nil
        sr:Destroy() --fixed memory leak (oops)
end

Tool.Equipped:connect(onEquipped)
Tool.Unequipped:connect(destroy6d)

And then parent the second script to the first script.
If you’ve implemented a fix, then perfect! Good job
