Moving Players In A Queue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am trying to create a queue system. I have parts named 1, 2, 3, 5 and so on until 100, I would like to move the player to part N, but following all of the preceding parts first in descending order.

For example, let’s say N = 5, I would like the player to move to part 99, 98, 97 and so on until they reach part 5.

So far, this is my solution:

function moveQueue()
	for i, v in queue do
		task.spawn(function()
			for i = totalparts - 1, i, -1 do
				v.Character.Humanoid:MoveTo(game.Workspace.DYSQueue.Queues.Path[i].Position)
				v.Character.Humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait(2)
			end
		end)
	end
end

This works completely fine until a second player joins the queue. Once that happens, the first player appears to do the entire queue again.

Also, queue is a table of players, with the index being their current position within the queue.

Here’s a queue module I wrote.

-- Queue module

local Queue = {}
Queue.__index = Queue

function Queue.new()
	local self = setmetatable({}, Queue)
	self.items = {}
	self.front = 0
	self.rear = -1
	return self
end

function Queue:enqueue(item)
	self.rear = self.rear + 1
	self.items[self.rear] = item
end

function Queue:dequeue()
	if self:isEmpty() then
		return nil
	end
	local frontItem = self.items[self.front]
	self.items[self.front] = nil
	self.front = self.front + 1
	return frontItem
end

function Queue:isEmpty()
	return self.front > self.rear
end

function Queue:size()
	return self.rear - self.front + 1
end

function Queue:clear()
	self.items = {}
	self.front = 0
	self.rear = -1
end

function Queue:toArray()
	local array = {}
	for i = self.front, self.rear do
		table.insert(array, self.items[i])
	end
	return array
end

function Queue:toString()
	return table.concat(self:toArray(), ", ")
end

return Queue

You can enqueue every part. Then, dequeue them 1 by 1 and move the player to the part.
