LocalScript doesnt play animation

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Im trying to make a equip system where this local script would get all equipped towers and place them into the GUI, but somehow the animation of the character doesn’t play?

local players = game:GetService('Players')
local localplayer = players.LocalPlayer
local folder = localplayer:WaitForChild('towersEquipped')

local function folderchildChanged()
	-- TODO: um.. get the tower???
	for _, v in pairs(folder:GetChildren()) do
		local order = v:GetAttribute('order')
		local place = script.Parent:FindFirstChild('Frame'..order)
		local tower = v.Value
		
		if place.viewport.WorldModel:FindFirstChild(tower.Name) and  place.viewport.WorldModel:FindFirstChild('viewportCam') then
			place.viewport.WorldModel:FindFirstChild(tower.Name):Destroy()
			place.viewport.WorldModel:FindFirstChild('viewportCam'):Destroy()
		end
		
		local clonedtower = tower:Clone()
		clonedtower.Parent = place.viewport.WorldModel
		clonedtower.Name = tower.Name
		
		local camera = Instance.new('Camera')
		local root = clonedtower:WaitForChild('Head')
		camera.Name = 'viewportCam'
		camera.CameraType = 'Custom'
		--camera.FieldOfView = '100'

		local animation = clonedtower.AnimSaves:FindFirstChild('Idle')
		local ani = clonedtower.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
		ani:Play()
		
		local cframeaddition = CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0,math.rad(18),0) * CFrame.new(0.01,-0.3,1.2)
		camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(root.Position + (root.CFrame.lookVector*1),root.Position) * cframeaddition
		camera.Parent = place.viewport.WorldModel
		place.viewport.CurrentCamera = camera
		
		if ani.IsPlaying then
			print('ok')
		end
	end
end

folderchildChanged()

folder.ChildRemoved:Connect(folderchildChanged)
folder.ChildAdded:Connect(folderchildChanged)

It might be because the animation is made by someone else who doesn’t own the game. To get past this, you could have that person load that animation onto a dummy and publish it to your profile. If this isn’t the case, try to set the AnimationPriority to something like Action.
