Whats the best way to handle two player emotes?

[jagged holly]

Right now im handling it via a Client Module and A server (for the prompt), but it doesnt seem to work and its always bugging out.

i check if the emote has 2 player allowed onto it via this:

    if TwoPlayer and TwoPlayer["2Player"].Value == true then
        TwoPlayerRemote:FireServer("Request", emoteName)
    end

And fires a request to the server making a prox prompt.

and then when the prompt is trigger this fires it to both clients

        TwoPlayerRemote:FireClient(requestingPlayer, "Yourself", emoteName, targetPlayer)
        TwoPlayerRemote:FireClient(targetPlayer, "Partner", emoteName, requestingPlayer)

which then goes into the module and does this:

TwoPlayerRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(role, emoteName, otherPlayer, syncPos)
        if role == "DelPrompt" then
            local EmotePrompt = Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("EmotePrompt")
            if not EmotePrompt then return end;
            EmotePrompt:Destroy()
            return
        end
        
        local anim = script.Emotes:FindFirstChild(emoteName)
        if not anim then return end
        local twoP = anim:FindFirstChild("TwoPlayer")
        if not twoP then return end

        local subAnim = twoP:FindFirstChild(role)
        if subAnim then
            EmoteController._playSubAnimation(subAnim, role, otherPlayer, syncPos)
            return
        end
    end)

1. Ask server to do emote
2. Server freezes players
3. Server moves players into proper position for animation
4. Server plays animation
5. Server unfreezes players

so opposite on how it plays the first animation? i see i see

Because it has to sync two players animating together, doing it server side makes more sense

Single player emotes make sense doing them client side since animation automatically replicates
