Check when a player uses a spawn pad

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Noob scripter here.
Is there a way to check when a player uses a spawn pad. I wanted to create an effect on the pad for every time someone spawns.

#2

What type of effect do you want to create? Also, do you only want it to happen when the Player first spawns / first joins the game?

#3

For every time they spawn within the game
Just a small animation that happens on the pad

#4

I assume you would want to do that on a Server script so here’s a snippet

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
-- Add your “effect” code here
end)
end)

EDIT: Here’s some proof

By the way, this fires every time the character is re-added (basically after the Humanoid.Died event fires)

game:getservice('players').localplayer.characteradded:Connect(Function(char)

repeat wait() until char.Parent == workspace

--players character has spawned and is on pad

Got it to work but is there a way to make it detect which spawn pad you use?
Don’t need all spawn pads triggering at the same time

#7

create a script inside the spawnpad and inside there put this code:

script.parent.Touched:Connect(Function(part)

if part.Parent then

if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
-- trigger the effect or whaterver



end

end

yeah sorry im dumb lol

I put in exactly what you put in but got this
Workspace.Model.SpawnPad.SpawnLocation.Script:14: Expected <eof>, got 'end'

script.parent.Touched:Connect(Function(part)

if part.Parent then
	if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
--Changed
		script.Parent.Sparkles.Enabled = true
		wait (10)
		script.Parent.Sparkles.Enabled = false



		end

	end

	end)

I mistyped ‘function’ for ‘Function’ soz was writing without the studio

script.parent.Touched:Connect(function(part)

	if part.Parent then
		if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			--Changed
			script.Parent.Sparkles.Enabled = true
			wait (10)
			script.Parent.Sparkles.Enabled = false



		end

	end
