To create an animation involving a player and an NPC, you can use the AnimationController and Animator objects in Roblox. Here are the general steps you can follow:
Create an animation using an animation editor, such as the Roblox Animation Editor or external animation software. The animation should involve both the player and the NPC.
Import the animation into your Roblox game by uploading it as an asset.
Create a AnimationController object for the player's Humanoid, and a Animator object for the NPC's Humanoid.
-- Get the player and NPC's Humanoids
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local npc = workspace.NPC -- Replace with the actual NPC
local npcHumanoid = npc:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
-- Create an AnimationController for the player and a Animator for the NPC
local animationController = humanoid:WaitForChild("AnimationController")
local animator = npcHumanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")
Load the animation onto both the player and NPC's AnimationController and Animator objects, respectively.
-- Load the animation onto the player's AnimationController
local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://<YOUR ANIMATION ID HERE>"
local animationTrack = animationController:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack.Looped = false
-- Load the animation onto the NPC's Animator
local animationController = humanoid:WaitForChild("AnimationController")
local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://<YOUR ANIMATION ID HERE>"
local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack.Looped = false
Play the animation on both the player and NPC's Humanoids at the same time.
-- Play the animation on both the player and NPC's Humanoids
animationTrack:Play()
animator:PlayAnimation(animationTrack)
To make sure that the player ends up in the right place after the animation, you can use the KeyframeSequence object to create keyframes in the animation where the player and NPC are in the correct positions.
Then, in your script, you can use the KeyframeReached event on the AnimationTrack object to detect when a keyframe is reached, and adjust the player's position accordingly.
-- Detect when a keyframe is reached in the animation
animationTrack.KeyframeReached:Connect(function(keyframeName)
if keyframeName == "<YOUR KEYFRAME NAME HERE>" then
-- Move the player to the correct position
local targetPosition = workspace.TargetPosition -- Replace with the actual position
character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(targetPosition))
end
end)
By using keyframes in your animation and detecting them in your script, you can ensure that the player ends up in the correct position after the animation is finished.
Yea, no. He gives random answers it sucks.
