--(hum = humanoid object)

if hum.MoveDirection.Magnitude < 0.05 then
   youranimation:Stop(fadeOutTime)
end

Not sure if this is exactly correct (The AnimationTrack:Stop()) arguments aren’t fresh in my head right now).

You could probably modify 0.05 if you wanted because you might want to only stop it at an extremely low speed. You should also check Humanoid:GetState() and make the animation stop if the player is mid-air.

I tried that but it didnt work

Some other issue with your code must be arising then; could you show me your code? You should always provide code so other people trying to help you can quickly point out your issue.

sure here

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = script.Parent
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12957118599"

local keybind = Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift
local running = false

local playnow 

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input: InputObject,gameprocessed: boolean)
	if gameprocessed then return end

	if input.KeyCode == keybind then

		if humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then


				character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 28

				for i = 1,5 do
					workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView = (75+(i*2))
				end
			
			if player.Character ~= nil then
				
				playnow = character.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
				print(animation.Parent)
			playnow:Play()
				running = true 
			end
		end
	end
end)

function End(input: InputObject,gameprocessed: boolean)
	
	if gameprocessed then return end
	
	if input.KeyCode == keybind then
         playnow:Stop()
		
		character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
		workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView = 70
		running = false
	end
end

UIS.InputEnded:Connect(End)

humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(function(state)
	
if running then
	
	if state == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping then
		
	  playnow:Stop()
	 character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 28
		
	elseif state == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Landed or state == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Running then
			
		playnow:Play()
		character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 28
		end
	end
end)

humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("MoveDirection"):Connect(function()
	
	if running then
	
	if character.Humanoid.MoveDirection == 0 then
			playnow:Stop()
		end
	end
end)

You didn’t do exactly that. I’m pretty sure the MoveDirection is a tiny decimal unless I’m mistaken (most likely I am).

#9

i did that and also not working here

humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("MoveDirection"):Connect(function()
	
	if running then
	
	if character.Humanoid.MoveDirection <= 0.05 then
			playnow:Stop()
		end
	end
end)

it shows error that is

  • attempt to compare Vector3 <= number
#11

oops my bad

I meant MoveDirection.Magnitude. Sorry

#12

thanks it worked but theres is a bug that when u press again it didnt work

#13

What specific thing doesn’t work? The animation?

#14

If u press the w key again that doesnt work
