How to make your own NPC with animations

Help and Feedback Building Support

Hello, I want to make mobs in my game to fight. My first one was a spider, and I made it really simple. There are some parts welded together with WeldContraint, and they are unanchored and can collide is set to true. There’s a humanoid, and that’s about it. I use the MoveTo() function.

Now I want to add animations to it but I don’t know where to start. Also I don’t know how to keep the parts (spider legs) welded together and still be able to play animations and move around. Any help? All the tutorials i tried were confusing and I don’t know if I should remove / replace the weld constraints or not. Thanks a lot for your help!

I’m not a huge animator, but I believe you can rig the spider, and make animations like that? With the spider as a rig, you’ll be able to animate it like a roblox character.
