Code issues - animation plays/stop

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, I need help with something in my code, I want it to play the normal animation when I press the button for the first time, but if I press the same button again, it stops the animation.

Could someone help me with that please

Locascript:

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

script.Parent.RemoteEvent:FireServer()

end)

ServerScript:

script.Parent.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait() -- get the player's character
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") -- get their humanoid

	local dance = Instance.new("Animation")
	dance.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5937558680" -- Holiday plays

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator") or Instance.new("Animator", humanoid) -- find the animator or create a new one
	local danc = animator:LoadAnimation(dance)
	danc:Play() -- play the animation
end)

try to add a debounce script on the local script

(I dont know Iā€™m still new to scripting)

Change the LocalScript for this and remove the script and the RemoteEvent.

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
Animator = Humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")

local dance = Instance.new("Animation")
dance.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5937558680"
local danc = Animator:LoadAnimation(dance)

local Play = false
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if Play == false then
        danc:Play()
        Play = true
    else
        danc:Stop()
        Play = false
    end
end)

LocalScript:

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer

local dance = Instance.new("Animation")
dance.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://5937558680"
local track

function load_animation()
	local character = Player.Character
	if not character then
		return
	end
	
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if not humanoid then
		return
	end
	
	track = humanoid:LoadAnimation(dance)
	
	return true
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if (not track) and (not load_animation()) then
		return
	end
	
	if track.IsPlaying then
		track:Stop()
	else
		track:Play()
	end
end)
