HumanoidRootPart not becoming Transparent when I reference it

Hello! I’m trying to play an animation on a Humanoid, however when I play the animation, the HumanoidRootPart does not animate along with the Humanoid. I thought that I could just make the HRP transparent and be done with it, but When I try to reference it in my script, it doesnt change. There’s no error message either. Heres whats happening:

and heres the script Im using to reference it:

		local standHRP = mystand:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
		standHRP.Transparency = 1
		print(standHRP.Transparency)

the Transparency value is printing when I run the script, so the value is obviously changing. Any help?

Just make the HRP invisible prior to the game being played

I’m pretty sure the humanoid root part should be transparent by default.

silly me! I have the whole humanoid transparent by defualt, and I make all of it visible when I press q. No wonder its not transparent, Im literally telling to be visible
