Having an issue where the animations of the morph script i'm using only apply to the client and don't get sent to the server
Originally I thought it was because the "Animate" script in both was a LocalScript, but if that was the issue, why does the original player model's animate script work perfectly fine but not the morph's animate script?
tardy ermine
"MorphScript"
tardy ermine
The fact it works perfectly fine clientside implies the animations are working correctly, they're just not being synced with the server
tardy ermine
Maybe part of the problem is I send the "PlayerModelChanger" event through a localscript first instead of it being entirely server-sided?

when you end up with your character and manually swap it the client isn't allowed to push those join transforms back out to everyone unlike the previous player model
humanoids under the player character normally replicatates the animations for you but the problem is it is simply not allowed to
tardy ermine
Got it, so the problem is how do I give the new model permissions to give its animations to the server?
burnt scarab
you can try BasePart:SerNetworkOwner
might work lol
create a for loop and traverse through you NewChar:GetDescendants() and if part:IsA("BasePart") then
part:SetNetworkOwner(player)
sry should I format that
there are explanations here https://devforum.roblox.com/t/what-is-setnetworkowner/711726/2

burnt scarab
yeah looks right
tardy ermine
Whatever I wrote didn't fix the issue, seems to add an immense amount of input delay as well
burnt scarab
you must not be traversing through the Get:Descendants correctly
print in the for loop to test
tardy ermine
Decided to print the desend array itself, its 72 long
burnt scarab
print in the for loop
tardy ermine
Putting the print inside the loop does seem to show good results
burnt scarab
oh
oh wait
you have to set the player
descend:SetNetworkOwner(player)
typically when you get these invisible errors you want to look for any inheriented functions or whatever they are called when you use " : "
tardy ermine
not lagging anymore, good sign
burnt scarab
did it work?
burnt scarab
bro
thats the character 💀
sorry but your player is the like abstract thing that represents your player player
so ```local Players = game:GetService("Players")
player = Players.LocalPlayer
The one in the players folder, not the model with the player's username in the workspace folder, sometimes its easy to get them mixed up
burnt scarab
yes and I recomment setting the player.Character to your new character after that
tardy ermine

Shouldn't this part accomplish the same thing?
burnt scarab
maybeee I am afraid it will present issues replicating after you set it like that
like wise to setting a Part.Parent before setting its attributes
tardy ermine
Well the script has to go before or else GetDescendants doesnt work
burnt scarab
oh set the parent up there but set the character after it
NewChar.Parent = workspace
for ...
user.Character = NewCharacter
is in my head the safest route
burnt scarab
try grouping the Character with the Parent 💀
after that ur cooked and I would start another thread for someone else
tardy ermine
im pretty sure i'm already cooked
burnt scarab
I mean you can check if you are properlly transfering over the Animate script especially
or print the part:GetNetworkOwner()?
tardy ermine
Turns out it's the truePlayer definition that isn't working? LocalPlayer only works in local scripts, and this is in serverscriptstorage
tardy ermine
Is there an easy way to get the player from the model?
like, game.Players:WaitForChild(user.Name)?
burnt scarab
you get the player from whatever remote event you have
its the first parameter
your user.
oh I misread earlier
damn I need to stop sabotaging lol
tardy ermine
burnt scarab
alr ur cooked sry
tardy ermine
oh
burnt scarab
wait
tardy ermine
damn
tardy ermine
thanks for trying though 🙏
tardy ermine
heres the full thing if anyone else finds this thread and can help
burnt scarab
I looked it up and you should be setting the Parent to workspace before the character
and looking at documentation u should prolly use :PivotTo, it will help with consistency on the model transformation
quasi rover
yawn

newChar:PivotTo(oldChar:GetPivot()

Swapping the two around leads to the same out-of-body problem from earlier
burnt scarab
My guess is the since the client uses the CharacterAdded event you have to set the position right after setting the parent, otherwise it will not recognize the current Camera pos
although it is already doing that earlier..., lowkey I'll stop its jus weird
