Remote.OnServerEvent:connect(function (Player, Type)
– animation code

end)

I am trying to figure out on how to make a animation start when you press a certain key. The only issue I have is making the animaton function

Okay.

Throwing a script on Scripting Support and making a statement isn’t quite the point of this category. This is for receiving help and pointers with code, not for asking for code. In addition to that, your thread is rather vague. Please ensure you’ve met standards with the category guidelines before asking a question.

Have you searched the Developer Hub for any of this yet? There are a lot of articles related to animation that you can read up on, as well as documentation on related objects. Think of what you want and try entering search terms to find it. You can also use Google. Something as simple as “key down function Roblox” would probably even work out.

As colbert says you can find a lot of answers and information just by doing a quick search


the api is really useful, and they tend to have examples as well
