Change of animation isn't working | Roblox Studio Community | Page 1

I have a custom animation for idle and walking and I made another where if you get below 50, these hurt animations play but it bugs and kind of combines the animations together instead of just playing the hurt animations when under 50 health

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:37 AM

#

what is the animation priority for each animation? they should be set to the highest if you want them to play over the default animations (Action4)

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:38 AM

#

They were the normal idle and walk animations !!!

#

Should I set them both to action 4

Alright, i've done that but the problem remains

#

`local character = script.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local idleAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthIdleAnimation")
local walkAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthWalkAnimation")
local loadedIdleAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(idleAnimation)
local loadedWalkAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(walkAnimation)

while wait() do
if humanoid.Health <= 50 then
loadedIdleAnimation:Play()
loadedWalkAnimation:Play()
else
loadedIdleAnimation:Stop()
loadedWalkAnimation:Stop()
end
end`

#

That's the code inside replicated storage

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:47 AM

#

i need a little more information - when the script runs the animations don't play, fine. but do the ~~regular~~ default animations play at under 50%?

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:47 AM

#

I think they still do ?

is this a local

#

or a server script?

Hi

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:52 AM

#

this is probably local

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:53 AM

#

midnight crypt is this a local

its a normal script in startercharacterscripts

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:53 AM

#

try a local script

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:53 AM

#

you need this to be a localscript

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:53 AM

#

scripts are for server systems

#

which works for all players

#

at the same time

#

we dont need that

#

for animations

#

animations can be handled from the client side

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:54 AM

#

I put it as a local script but the problem still is occuring

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:54 AM

#

Any errors?

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

No, none come up

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

Since its a client script

#

You can use runservice instead of while

#

its way better

#

i think the problem is the while loop.

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

so instead of while just put runservice

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

i doubt the problem is the while loop

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:55 AM

#

indigo cliff so instead of while just put runservice

runservice.renderstepped

#

you can find it in the docs

#

but make sure not to play the animation every frame

#

only play it if its not playing

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:56 AM

#

its highlighted runservice in read

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:56 AM

#

wym

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

runservice.renderstepped.wait() do

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

no

#

not like that

#

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
--anything inside while loop goes here
end)

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 9:58 AM

#

beat me to it, but yea ^

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:59 AM

#

The ) in end at the bottom is highlighted now

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 9:59 AM

#

theres a problem in your script

#

can you provide a full script?

#

ill do it for you.

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 9:59 AM

#

`local character = script.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local idleAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthIdleAnimation")
local walkAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthWalkAnimation")
local loadedIdleAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(idleAnimation)
local loadedWalkAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(walkAnimation)

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
if humanoid.Health <= 50 then
loadedIdleAnimation:Play()
loadedWalkAnimation:Play()
else
loadedIdleAnimation:Stop()
loadedWalkAnimation:Stop()
end)`

#

This is the full script :p

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:00 AM

#

local character = script.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local idleAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthIdleAnimation")
local walkAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("LowHealthWalkAnimation")
local loadedIdleAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(idleAnimation)
local loadedWalkAnimation = humanoid:LoadAnimation(walkAnimation)

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
    if humanoid.Health <= 50 then
        if not loadedIdleAnimation.IsPlaying then
            loadedIdleAnimation:Play()
        end
        if not loadedWalkAnimation.IsPlaying then
            loadedWalkAnimation:Play()
        end
    else
        if loadedIdleAnimation.IsPlaying then
            loadedIdleAnimation:Stop()
        end
        if loadedWalkAnimation.IsPlaying then
            loadedWalkAnimation:Stop()
        end
    end
end)

#

Here you go.

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 10:00 AM

#

i feel there should be more checks

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:01 AM

#

wym

south wave Jul 22, 2025, 10:01 AM

#

as it stands i feel that if both aren't playing then it will try to play the idle - only to be overwritten by the walking animation

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:01 AM

#

I think thats just happened...

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:02 AM

south wave as it stands i feel that if both aren't playing then it will try to play the idl...

that was his script

#

do you want the walk animation

#

to play

#

only when moving?

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:02 AM

#

Mhm !!

Sorry that's my bad I should've made that clear

Thank you both so much for the help btw, i'm still getting used to scripting so it very helpful :]

#

hm

#

what is it

#

hope i can help

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:05 AM

#

It's so unrelated, want me dm you it so i can close this ?

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:05 AM

#

we can continue here

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:05 AM

#

okie

#

Well, i've made a shop person who you can chat to, he'll ask "Would you like to see the shop" (not the actual dialogue but its what he is asking) and you can reply "Yes" and after you press yes, the Dialogue UI closes and the shop UI opens

#

I've tried so many different scripts and ways but nothing works

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:07 AM

#

does the dialogue ui atleast appear?

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:07 AM

#

Yeah !!

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:07 AM

#

can i see your current code?

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:07 AM

#

For the dialogue ui closing ?

midnight crypt Jul 22, 2025, 10:08 AM

#

your dialogue code.

#

not only closing.

indigo cliff Jul 22, 2025, 10:09 AM

Okie, it's a kit thing I used for the ui and stuff but i understand it
