Stop LoadAnimation

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a script that loads an animation (Humanoid:LoadAnimation) into the player’s humanoid. The animation is looped and it’s priority is movement. Is there anyway I can stop the animation?

I tired that and it didn’t seem to work. I tried animation:Stop()

To better help it would be nice to see the code that’s not working. The :Stop() function should work but you have to be referencing the AnimationTrack correctly.

I have no idea if this will work but you should try to set the looped property of the track to false before trying the :Stop() method

to get a table of the currently running animations in a humanoid you would run

local animtracks = player.Character.Humanoid:GetPlayingAnimationTracks()

and to stop the animation you would do this as such

for i,v in pairs(animtracks) do
    if v.Name == "RunAnim" then
          v:Stop()
    end
end

Are you sure you’re stopping the correct animation value? If you know you are, are you sure that you aren’t running it again? As others said, showing us your code would really help us to solve your problem.

You use AnimationTrack’s :Stop() function to stop an animation that is currently being played on a Humanoid or AnimationController. To get the AnimationTrack, you must have a reference to the AnimationTrack that you previously created from a function like Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation Object).

You can also grab the animation if you no longer have a reference to it if it’s playing from this useful function under any Humanoid or AnimationTrack here, meet the function GetPlayingAnimationTracks.

Example usage of both:

local Animation = script.Animation -- Animation object
local AnimationTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)

AnimationTrack:Play()
wait(1)
AnimationTrack:Stop()

local Animation = script.Animation -- Animation object

for _, AnimationTrack in pairs(Humanoid:GetPlayingAnimationTracks()) do
    if AnimationTrack.Name == Animation.Name then
        AnimationTrack:Stop()
        break -- Break the loop, we already found and stopped the specified animation.
    end
end
