Running animation not playing after death

[snipperdiaper (Synthx)]

Hello everyone,

This script controls my sprint system I’ve been working on, which is in StarterCharacterScripts.

It works 100% of the time normally, except after reset where it doesn’t seem to work.

• meaning that the running/walking changes dont end up in effect at all.

Possible solutions:

• I read somewhere that this can be changed by adding a Player.CharacterAdded() within the script, but I tried this and it didnt work (at least for me / the way I did it.)

Any help is appreciated
Thanks

-- VARIABLES:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Humanoid = (Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()):FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

local PlayerCam = game.Workspace.Camera

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local WalkAnim = Instance.new("Animation")

local WalkTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(WalkAnim) 
local RunTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(RunAnim)

			end 
		end 
	else
		--If the player ISNT moving, stop both tracks.
		WalkTrack:Stop() 
		RunTrack:Stop()
	end 
end 
-- INPUT DETECTION: 
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftControl then
		-- If the player isnt sprinting..
		if sprinting == false then 
			sprinting = true 
			-- Fire the animation update function, which plays one track, and turns the other off.
			updateAnimation() 
			-- Sets walkspeed and changes the FOV in the camera
			Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").WalkSpeed = 32
			tweenservice:Create(PlayerCam,TweenInfo,{FieldOfView = 80}):Play()
			
		else sprinting = false 
			-- Reverts
			updateAnimation() 
			Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").WalkSpeed = 16
			tweenservice:Create(PlayerCam,TweenInfo,{FieldOfView = 70}):Play()
			
		end
	end
end)
-- This below is basically the saviour, if the player stops moving, it updates animation again, which will set both tracks to stop.

Just swapped a few thing around and simplified a few things while there.
