The animations play the way I intended on the client playing them, but the server doesn’t see the same thing the client does.
Left side is Server, right side is client:
I have modified the default Animate script to switch between different walk and idle animations, but the server doesn’t pick up on that. I am also letting the client’s Animator handle all the replication, which is where the problem stems from.
Just play them on the server or client, it will replicate automatically, unless the animator was created locally.
I rather not play them on server, I want instant feedback for the player.
And the animator replication is not flawless, it is very buggy and needs some much needed upgrades, I wish they would address this problem because every fighting-esque game gets affected by this.
But thanks for the suggestion, it might be the only option left.
My question is why r u replicating? There is no need 4 tht, just do Animator:LoadAnimation() in the client.
Just for client makes for less server lag you’re also probably on a local script not server
What do you mean why I am replicating? I am already using :LoadAnimation(), I am not manually replicating anything, I am letting the Animator handle that for me, and I can’t have movement related animations be played on the server, that’ll make the client experience very delayed and just unplayable.
