No stopped event for animation

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I know that with animation track there’s an event stopped() but this event doesn’t appear to be here for the new animations, How would I make a script that waits for an animation to finish, with the current animation (Instance.new("Animation"))

#2

Maybe something on here can help you

#3

You don’t play an Animation. You play an AnimationTrack.

AnimationTrack.Stopped:Wait() is what you want

#4

animation.Stopped:Wait()

Hmm… that’s what I would do

#5 
local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://0000"

local animationTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack:Play()

animationTrack.Stopped:Connect(function()
   print("animation ended")
end)

Animation and AnimationTrack are 2 different things. Stopped is an event for AnimationTrack, not Animation.

#6

but load animation is becoming deprecated, so I’m avoiding it.

#7

LoadAnimation is deprecated for the Humanoid Instance. They recommend using the Animator Instance for animations

sothen how do i wait for stopped with animator

#9

It’s essentially the same thing you would do with LoadAnimation for Humanoids, just with a different Instance. But if you’re talking about yielding the thread then:

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://0000"

local animationTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack:Play()

animationTrack.Stopped:Wait() -- will pause the thread until the animation ends
-- continue code here
