You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

I’ve been working on the animations for idle and walking, but initially, they don’t change based on whether I’m walking or not. It plays the walk animation, and when I switch to idle, it doesn’t switch but plays both simultaneously. When I try to stop one, it bugs out. Additionally, there’s an error related to the maximum animation tracks, and I believe this is happening because the remote keeps firing.

Define the animations outside of the functions, then load and Stop/Play both respectively inside the functions, like this:

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local playerPets = workspace:WaitForChild("Player_Pets")

local circle = math.pi * 2

local function getPosition(angle, radius)
	local x = math.cos(angle) * radius
	local z = math.sin(angle) * radius
	return x, z
end

local walk = false
local walkAnimation, idleAnimation

local function playIdleAnimation(pet)
	local animController = pet:FindFirstChild("AnimationController")

	if animController then
		if walkAnimation then
			walkAnimation:Stop() -- i forgot what the stop function is called
		end
		if not idleAnimation then
			idleAnimation = animController:LoadAnimation(animController.Idle)
		end
		task.wait()
		idleAnimation:Play()
	else
		warn("AnimationController not found for pet: " .. pet.Name)
	end
end

local function playWalkAnimation(pet)
	local animController = pet:FindFirstChild("AnimationController")

	if animController then
		if idleAnimation then
			idleAnimation:Stop() -- i forgot what the stop function is called
		end
		if not idleAnimation then
			walkAnimation = animController:LoadAnimation(animController.Walk)
		end
		task.wait()
		walkAnimation:Play()
	else
		warn("AnimationController not found for pet: " .. pet.Name)
	end
end

local function positionPets(character, folder)
	for i, pet in pairs(folder:GetChildren()) do
		local petSpeed = 0.2
		local Attachment = pet.PrimaryPart:WaitForChild("Attachment")
		local BillboardGui = Attachment:WaitForChild("BillboardGui")
		local PetName_Txt = BillboardGui:WaitForChild("PetName")
		local PetRarity_Txt = BillboardGui:WaitForChild("PetRarity")
		BillboardGui.Enabled = true
		PetName_Txt.Text = pet.Name
		PetRarity_Txt.Text = pet:GetAttribute("Rarity_Name")
		PetRarity_Txt.TextColor3 = pet:GetAttribute("Rarity_Color")

		local radius = 4 + #folder:GetChildren()
		local angle = i * (circle / #folder:GetChildren())
		local x, z = getPosition(angle, radius)
		local _, characterSize = character:GetBoundingBox()
		local _, petSize = pet:GetBoundingBox()

		local offsetY = -characterSize.Y / 2 + petSize.Y / 2

		if character.Humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then
			if pet:FindFirstChild("Walks") then
				if not walk then
					walk = true
					playWalkAnimation(pet)
				end

				pet:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pet.PrimaryPart.CFrame:Lerp(character.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(x, offsetY, z), petSpeed))
				print("Walk")
			else
				pet:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pet.PrimaryPart.CFrame:Lerp(character.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(x, offsetY, z), petSpeed))
			end
		else
			if pet:FindFirstChild("Walks") then
				if walk then
					walk = false
					print("idle")
					playIdleAnimation(pet)
				end

				pet:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pet.PrimaryPart.CFrame:Lerp(character.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(x, offsetY, z), petSpeed))
				pet:PivotTo(CFrame.new(pet.PrimaryPart.Position, character.PrimaryPart.Position))
			else
				pet:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pet.PrimaryPart.CFrame:Lerp(character.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(x, offsetY / 2 + math.sin(time() * 3) + 1, z), petSpeed))
			end
		end
	end
end

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	for _, PlrFolder in pairs(playerPets:GetChildren()) do
		local Player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(PlrFolder.Name) or nil
