You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:
-
What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I want the footstep to play when an animation event happens on the current animation. -
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
It isn’t synced and just makes a bunch of footsteps. -
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I’ve tried doing things like: animTrack.KeyframeReached:Connect(function(keyframeName) and animTrack:GetMarkerReachedSignal(“Footstep”):Connect(OnFootStep) but I cant get it to work.
After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you! I’m pretty new to scripting so if I overcomplicate things or make lots of mistakes that’s why.
