This is my code, i have 2 scripts a local and script. I just copied it in each. lol ik that is dumb but i didnt feel like coming up with a better solution

local Playing = false

local animation = Instance.new(“Animation”)
animation.AnimationId = “rbxassetid://5565088775” – your id here

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
Playing = true
end)

script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
Playing = false
end)

while wait(.1) do
if Playing then

local Humanoid = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid", 5)
	local animTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
	 animTrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Idle
	animTrack:Play()	
	
end

end

First, you can not set an animation priority from a script. You need to set it when you edit the animation, and the main error is that is an animation track playing already, just stop it right before you play the other.

Im trying to overlay it ontop of the default tool holding. Not trying to play two animations.

The problem is that you are loading animation every .1 seconds, only do it once. Same with the humanoid.

Just one question I cant seem to figure out how to stop it when i unequip the tool. Do you know how to?

#7

animationTrack:Stop()

Try doing these variables before the events.

I did this, i dont seem to get any errors but it wont stop playing either

local Playing = false
local animTrack = nil
local animation = Instance.new(“Animation”)
animation.AnimationId = “rbxassetid://5565088775” – your id here

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
local Humanoid = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild(“Humanoid”, 5)
animTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
animTrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Idle
animTrack:Play()
end)

script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
animTrack:Stop()
end)
