GetMarkerReachedSignal not working [SOLVED]

[Weird_Wanderer (IcebergMan)]

I used Moon Animator to make an animation and two events for it. Both don’t respond when calling GetMarkerReachedSignal.

Keyframes for the animations are stored in a dummy which I used for animating. The animation instance is in the workspace with the right ID attached.

What I’m interested in:

sculptAnim:GetMarkerReachedSignal("HitClimax"):Connect(function()
    print("hi")
end)

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local re = RS.ProxRemote
local SG = game:GetService("StarterGui")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded
local playerGUI = player.PlayerGui
local GUI = playerGUI:WaitForChild("ScreenGui")
local closeButton = GUI.CloseButton

local ClaySmashSound = workspace["Clay Smash SFX"]

local XPModRemote = RS.XPModRemote

local sculptAnim1 = workspace.SculptingAnimationFinalEvent

local sculptProgress_MAX = 0
local currentProgress = 0

local sculptDebounce = false
local sculpt_CD = 1.5

local isSculpting = false

local humanoid = player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local sculptAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(sculptAnim1)

local getControls = require(player.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls()

local function speedUpgradeReceived(speedUpgr)
	increment = increment + speedUpgr
	print("Upgrade lvl2 received, " .. increment)
end

local function AssignRandomSculpt(num)
	local finalRandomSculpt = SculptVarMOD:GetRandomSculpt(player)
	print(finalRandomSculpt.MaxHits)

	sculptProgress_MAX = finalRandomSculpt.MaxHits
	return sculptProgress_MAX
end

Found a fix. Apparently, the initial name of the event in the Moon Animator is just cosmetic and only for your convenience. For events to actually work, you have to click on this bar on the left and add a name and parameter (if needed).

So, "HitClimax" is just a cosmetic, while "Hit" and param will get caught by GetMarkerReachedSignal.

sculptAnim:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Hit"):Connect(function(param)
					print(param)
					print("hi")
				end)

Output:

Confirming it works as intended (changing animation speed; sound plays exactly on the event keyframe each time):

Default Animation Speed

sculptAnim:Play()
				sculptAnim:AdjustSpeed(1)
				
				sculptAnim:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Hit"):Connect(function(param)
					print(param)
					print("hi")
					ClaySmashSound:Play()
				end)

0.3 Animation Speed

sculptAnim:Play()
				sculptAnim:AdjustSpeed(.3)
				
				sculptAnim:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Hit"):Connect(function(param)
					print(param)
					print("hi")
					ClaySmashSound:Play()
				end)
