Custom Walking Animation has a start Delay

I’ve got a custom rig that I made an animation for, but every time I start walking, there’s a small delay before the walking animation starts. Does anyone have a fix?

Link to video:

Server script in StarterCharacterScripts:

local char = script.Parent
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local walkAnim = script:WaitForChild("Walk")
local walkTrack = hum:WaitForChild("Animator"):LoadAnimation(walkAnim)

hum.Running:Connect(function(speed)
	if speed > 0 and speed < 11 then
		if not walkTrack.IsPlaying then
			walkTrack:Play()
		end
	elseif speed > 11 then
		if not walkTrack.IsPlaying then
			walkTrack:Play()
		end
	else
		if walkTrack.IsPlaying then
			walkTrack:Stop()
		end
	end
end)

Are you using a server script?, if you are copy and paste the script inside a local script instead.

#4

Yes, I’m using a server script. If I use a local script, doesn’t that mean nobody else will see the walking animation?

#5

No, if you play animation local scripts, roblox allows it to show to everyone.
That’s why the animate script inside our characters is a local script, so there is no delays.

Not for the character. This explains it well.

A quick copy and paste or a plugin to change the scirpt into a LocalScript should solve your problem.

Nevermind, it seems to have been a problem with how I made the animation (one of the keyframes was left blank intentionally, though I figured out that the blank keyframe made it look like there was a delay).
