This is pretty much a game breaking bug

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

So normally, I play my game inside of studio and everything works fine. But if I die somehow, the next thing I know, none of my animations work. I think for some reason the humanoid gets destroyed, but I’ve put wait functions and other stuff. Here is the syntax error:

 11:31:37.092  LoadAnimation requires the Humanoid object (goony83.Humanoid) to be a descendant of the game object  -  Client - Running:10

I would appreciate help, thanks.

What does your code look like? This error could also occur if the humanoid isn’t a descendant to workspace or WorldModel.

#3

Look in your player character in the explorer while in test mode. Do you still have your humanoid?

I think it is more with the game than a certain script to be honest. I will give you an example anyway tho
(This is part of the script, not all of it) Also I want to mention that it works completely fine until I die

local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local value = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Values.Running
local jeep = workspace.CabinRetreat.Jeep1
local jeep2 = workspace.CabinRetreat.Jeep
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(anims)


UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,isTyping)
	if isTyping then 
		return
	elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
		if value.Value == true then
			hum.WalkSpeed = 30
			if not hum.Sit then
			anim:Play()
			
			end
		end
	end
end)

Yes, the humanoid is there the entire time

#6

Is the script parented to a service like ReplicatedFirst or StarterPlayerScripts? The script is trying to load the animation on the previous humanoid (now destroyed).

If it isn’t, then you could try to make a function to make the event forcefully get the humanoid:

local function getHumanoid()
   return char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
end

This would return nil if the humanoid doesn’t exist.

#7

Try this script so that it check if the humanoid is here or its still alive:

local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local value = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Values.Running
local jeep = workspace.CabinRetreat.Jeep1
local jeep2 = workspace.CabinRetreat.Jeep
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(anims)


UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,isTyping)
	if isTyping then 
		return
     end
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
           if hum ~= nil or hum.Health > 0 then
		if value.Value == true then
			hum.WalkSpeed = 30
			if not hum.Sit then
			anim:Play()
			end
		end
	end
end)

Also I would suggest don’t use the hum ~= nil try using if char:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") then end

#8

It returns nil as you said. What should I do from here?

#9

You could try to print the children of char using:

print(char:GetChildren())

to see all of it’s children and if the humanoid exists. Or try to see if there’s any scripts that interact with the humanoid. Mainly just normal debugging from this point

#10

It returns a table with nothing in it: {}

#11

Weird, the char variable might be having it’s children being removed by something. You could try redefining the variable whenever your character dies

#12

The only thing it can find is the humanoid after I put this in

repeat wait() until char ~= nil
#13

ok I made a for i,v loop and printed v, and now it is showing everything that it should

But I still have no clue what the problem is

#15

This is indeed really strange. However, I unfortunately don’t have the answer or solution.

#16

i added this

while char.Parent == nil do
	char.AncestryChanged:Wait()

this makes the error not pop up anymore, but it still doesnt fix it

#17

Maybe its because its trying to find the char or humanoid through the client instead of the server

#18

Hello! Did you try putting the script in StarterPlayer > StarterCharacterScripts? This will run the script every time the character is loaded. You’ll still get the error unless you use a pcall function but it will still run like it’s supposed to.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! This worked completely well and there are now no errors whatsoever! I appreciate it a lot, my game has kind of a deadline and I needed to fix this error ASAP
