A-chassis Seat Lock

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    Only the “owner” of the car can sit down in the driver seat

  2. What is the issue?
    Currently anyone can sit in the seat despite the player’s name being defined in the value “Owner” when being spawned in (different script). The value is 100% being defined however I’m unsure on then why anyone can sit down in the driving seat. I need the player to be jumped rather then being respawned as they may accidentally sit in the vacant drive seat.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?

  • I have had it as if the player is > nothing else jump. This led to everyone jumping out of the seat.
  • There are zero relevant console errors
seat = script.Parent
seat.Changed:Connect(function(plr)
	if seat.Occupant then
		local humanoid = seat.Occupant
		if humanoid then
			local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
			if player.Name == not script.Parent.Parent.Owner.Value then
				seat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
				seat.Occupant.Jump = true
			end
		end
	end
end)

Any help will be greatly appreciated (I’ve not coded in a while so trying to get back into things) If you need anymore info please lmk.

Try this, you can remove the warns. The only differences I made were some slight changes in the formatting and changed your player.Name == not script.Parent.Parent.Owner.Value to player.Name ~= ownerthing

local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
local seat = script.Parent

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
	warn("Occupancy Changed")
	local occupant = seat.Occupant
	
	if occupant then
		warn("Valid Occupant")
		local player = PlayerService:GetPlayerFromCharacter(occupant.Parent)
		local Owner = script.Parent.Parent.Owner
		
		if player and player.Name ~= Owner.Value then
			warn(`Occupant not expected user, got {occupant.Name} expected {Owner.Value}`)
			seat.Occupant.Jump = true
		end
	end
end)

Final Version with Debouncing

local seat = script.Parent
local debounce = false

seat.Changed:Connect(function(property)
    if debounce then return end
    debounce = true

    if property == "Occupant" and seat.Occupant then
        local humanoid = seat.Occupant
        if humanoid then
            local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
            if player then
                local owner = seat.Parent:FindFirstChild("Owner")
                if owner and owner:IsA("StringValue") and player.Name ~= owner.Value then
                    humanoid.Jump = true
                else
                    -- Optionally, set the network owner to the player
                    seat:SetNetworkOwner(player)
                end
            end
        end
    end

    debounce = false
end)

-- Optionally, disconnect the event when the seat is destroyed
seat.AncestryChanged:Connect(function(_, parent)
    if not parent then
        seat.Changed:DisconnectAll()
    end
end)
