Fix Timeout Exhaustion

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1 
			repeat
				randomSpawn = tps[math.random(1, #tps)]
			until not spawnedPlayers[randomSpawn]

			spawnedPlayers[randomSpawn] = true
			hrp.CFrame = randomSpawn.CFrame
			print(#playersinGame)
		end
	end

this is giving me a timeout exhaustion error how do I fix it?

#2

When using repeat / until loops, they act similar to while true loops, they have no delay when running the next loop. Just add a task.wait() inside of the repeat loop.

#3

alright i added this and it works… but now there is a new problem with my script. its a 1v1 round system and when there is 2 people in the game its fine but when there is 3 it breaks. Heres my code for adding the peeps and removing the peeps


	local tps = pickedMap.Spawns:GetChildren()
	local spawnedPlayers = {} 



	for _, player in pairs(PlayersService:GetPlayers()) do
		local character = player.Character

		if character and #spawnedPlayers < 2 then
			table.insert(playersinGame,player)
			print(playersinGame)
			local hrp = character.HumanoidRootPart
			local randomSpawn

			local classicSword = game.ServerStorage.ClassicSword
			local flowerSword = game.ServerStorage.FlowerSword

			if character.Sword.Value == 1 then
				local swordClone = classicSword:Clone()
				swordClone.Parent = player.Backpack
			end

			if character.Sword.Value == 2 then
				local swordClone = flowerSword:Clone()
				swordClone.Parent = player.Backpack

			end


			repeat wait()
				randomSpawn = tps[math.random(1, #tps)]
			until not spawnedPlayers[randomSpawn]

			spawnedPlayers[randomSpawn] = true
			hrp.CFrame = randomSpawn.CFrame
			print(#playersinGame)
		end
	end



	local winner = nil

	for i = gameTime, 0, -1 do
		if #playersinGame <= 1 then
			if #playersinGame == 1 then
				winner = playersinGame[1]
				status.Value = "gameover! winner: ".. winner.DisplayName
				winner.leaderstats["wins 🏆"].Value = winner.leaderstats["wins 🏆"].Value + 1
				victory:Play()
				wait(2)
			end
			break
		else
			if i < 6 then
				status.Value = "Fight >:D : " .. i
				gameTick:Play()
			else
				status.Value = "Fight >:D : " .. i
			end


			task.wait(1)
			status.Value = "nobody won :("
		end
	end


	for i, player in pairs(PlayersService:GetPlayers()) do
		local character = player.Character
		character.Humanoid.Health = character.Humanoid.MaxHealth

		local toolbackpack = player.Backpack:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Tool")

		if toolbackpack then
			toolbackpack:Destroy()
		end


		local charactertool = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Tool")
		if charactertool	then
			charactertool:Destroy()
		end


		if character and character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart") then
			local hrp = character.HumanoidRootPart
			hrp.CFrame = lobby.Spawn.CFrame
		end
	end

	musictransition(fightMusic,intermissionMusic)


	playersinGame = {}
	clonedMap:Destroy()
end

Maybe use #playersInGame instead of #spawnedPlayers?

Also if you are trying to pick random players, use math.random and pick from a table of players. I tried editing your code to do something like that:

local playerList = game.Players:GetChildren()
local spawnedPlayers = {}

repeat
    local randomNumber = math.random(1, #playerList)
    if playerList[randomNumber].Character ~= nil and spawnedPlayers[playerList[randomNumber]] == nil then
        table.insert(spawnedPlayers[playerList[randomNumber]]
        --Put what else you need to do when spawning a player
    end
until #spawnedPlayers == 2
#5

it still breaks unfortunately… it just stays on the status go and the whole script breaks
