My custom model has an issue

[Heischris]

Hi, i made a custom tail with its own animationcontroller for individual animations:

But my problem is this:

when i activate my tail it supposed to play the activate animation i made but instead it looks like this.
i also have the animations played by a local script and the model spawned by a server script.
Why does this happen?
-Side Note: The animations are completly loaded by a local script that loads them

Can we see the script? Can we see what’s wrong? Can we see what it’s supposed to look like? Anything?

Local script:

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local QuickEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.QuickEvent

local Activated = false
local debounce = false
local coolDown = 1

local Idle = nil

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input, isTyping)
	if not isTyping and Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.One then
		if debounce == false and Activated == false then
			Activated = true
			QuickEvent:FireServer("ActivateKen1", Character)
			local Ken1 = Character:WaitForChild("Ken1")
			local AnimationController = Ken1:FindFirstChild("AnimationController")
			local ActivateAnim = AnimationController:LoadAnimation(script.Animations.Activate)
			ActivateAnim:Play()
			ActivateAnim.Stopped:Connect(function()
				Idle = AnimationController:LoadAnimation(script.Animations.Idle)
				Idle:Play()
				debounce = true
			end)
			
		end
		if Activated == true and debounce == true then
			Activated = false
			QuickEvent:FireServer("DiactivateKen1", Character)
			local Ken1 = Character:FindFirstChild("Ken1")
			if Ken1 then
				local AnimationController = Ken1:FindFirstChild("AnimationController")
				local DiactivateAnim = AnimationController:LoadAnimation(script.Animations.Diactivate)
				DiactivateAnim:Play()
				DiactivateAnim.Stopped:Connect(function()
					delay(coolDown, function()
						debounce = false
					end)
				end)
			end
		end
	end
end)

Server Script:

local QuickEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.QuickEvent

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

QuickEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, Event, Character)
	if Event == "ActivateKen1" then
		local Ken1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Kagunes.Ken.Ken1.Ken1:Clone()
		local mWeld = Instance.new("ManualWeld", Ken1.UpperTorsoPoint)
		mWeld.Part0 = Ken1.UpperTorsoPoint
		mWeld.Part1 = Character.UpperTorso
		Ken1.Parent = Character
		for i, v in pairs(Ken1:GetChildren()) do
			if v:IsA("BasePart") and v.Name ~= "UpperTorsoPoint" then
				v.Transparency = 1
				local Apear = TweenService:Create(v, TweenInfo.new(0.2, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {Transparency = 0})
				Apear:Play()
			end
		end
	elseif Event == "DiactivateKen1" then
		local Ken1 = Character:FindFirstChild("Ken1")
		if Ken1 then
			for i, v in pairs(Ken1:GetChildren()) do
				if v:IsA("BasePart") and v.Name ~= "UpperTorsoPoint" then
					local Apear = TweenService:Create(v, TweenInfo.new(0.4, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {Transparency = 1})
					Apear:Play()
				end
			end
			delay(1, function()
				Ken1:Destroy()
			end)
		end
	end
end)

I cant see a problem here. Well, maybe you could use a remote function to create the Ken1, instead of a remote event to create it and then wait for it, but that’s it.

What should happen? The tail (if it is a tail) doesn’t activate as it should? Or is it that little flicker at the beginning of the activation?

[Heischris]

the problem is the flicker you see at the beggining of the activation. as you can see this is how it should activate by the animation:

[WoTrox]

In this case, try to use a remote function to create the Ken1. Here’s the documentation.
I think that flicker is because of the lag between the server and the client, so you can’t really do much about it, but hopefully this will make it smaller.

Or to (almost) completely remove the lag, you could create the Ken1 on the client instead. And if you need other players to see it too, make it on the server too, and then make it invisible to the original client.
This is a better solution, but it also takes more time.

I hope it works

From what I can see, it is making the tail visible just right before the animation loads.

Try doing this:

if debounce == false and Activated == false then
	Activated = true
	local Ken1 = Character:WaitForChild("Ken1")
	local AnimationController = Ken1:FindFirstChild("AnimationController")
	local ActivateAnim = AnimationController:LoadAnimation(script.Animations.Activate)
	repeat task.wait() until ActivateAnim.Length ~= 0
	QuickEvent:FireServer("ActivateKen1", Character)
	ActivateAnim:Play()
	ActivateAnim.Stopped:Connect(function()
		Idle = AnimationController:LoadAnimation(script.Animations.Idle)
		Idle:Play()
		debounce = true
	end)
end

i tried it but it didnt change anything
