Hey guys im trying to figure out for 7 hours now why my script doesn’t work. The events don’t work, the game doesn’t reset when someone dies, and the player doesn’t get assigned a random plate. help. Can someone please find the cause of this? thx
here’s the Main Script:
local EventsModule = require(script:WaitForChild("EventsModule"))
local MethodNames = {}
for MethodName, Method in pairs(EventsModule) do
if type(Method) == "function" then
table.insert(MethodNames, MethodName)
end
end
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local Contestants = Teams:WaitForChild("Contestants")
local Spectators = Teams:WaitForChild("Spectators")
local Remotes = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remotes")
local Values = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Values")
local Status = Values:WaitForChild("Status")
local GameRunning = Values:WaitForChild("GameRunning")
local Assets = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Assets")
local intermissionLength = 15
local timeBetweenEvents = 5
local minimumPlayers = 0
local function intermission()
GameRunning.Value = false
for i = intermissionLength, 0 , -1 do
wait(1)
Status.Value = "Intermission: ".. i .." seconds"
end
Status.Value = "Round Starting!"
GameRunning.Value = true
end
local function startRound()
local Plates = Assets.plates:Clone()
Plates.Parent = game.Workspace
local Players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
local PlayersAlive = {}
local PlatesAlive = {}
for i, player in pairs(Players) do
local plate = Plates:FindFirstChild("i"..i)
local character = player.Character
local HumanoidRootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
if HumanoidRootPart and #Players >= minimumPlayers then
HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = plate.PrimaryPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,3,0)
player.serverData.playerPlate.Value = i
local plateOwner = Instance.new("StringValue")
plateOwner.Name = "PlateOwner"
plateOwner.Value = player.Name
plateOwner.Parent = plate
player.Team = Contestants
table.insert(PlayersAlive, player)
table.insert(PlatesAlive, plate)
for i, v in pairs(PlayersAlive) do print(i,v) end
character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
print(player.Name.. " has died")
player.Team = Spectators
table.remove(PlayersAlive, table.find(PlayersAlive, player))
table.remove(PlatesAlive, table.find(PlatesAlive, plate))
end)
else
Status.Value = "Not enough players to start the game.."
end
end
for i, plate in pairs(Plates:GetChildren()) do
local plateOwner = plate:FindFirstChild("plateOwner")
if not plateOwner then
print("there is no owner")
plate:Destroy()
end
end
while #PlayersAlive > 0 do
wait(timeBetweenEvents)
local RandomMethodName = MethodNames[math.random(1, #MethodNames)]
local Method = EventsModule[RandomMethodName]
Method()
end
Plates:Destroy()
end
while true do
intermission()
startRound()
end
here’s the events script:

local allPlates = Plates:GetChildren()
local plate = allPlates[math.random(1,#allPlates)]
local playerName = plate.plateOwner.Value
local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName)
return player, plate
end
Events.shrinkPlate2Stunds = function(player, plate)
if player == nil and plate == nil then
local player, plate = pickRandomPlayerAndPlate()
if player and plate then
plate.Size = plate.Size - Vector3.new(2,0,2)
Status.Value = player.Name.. "'s plate shrunk by 2 studs!"
end
else

end
end

end

end
end
