Car spawning problems with despawning

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello. I’m having trouble with my car spawner.
So after I’ve spawned the car there is a timer and if the car doesn’t move away from the spawn location within that time I want the car to be despawned (destroyed) but my current script doesn’t seem to work.

ServerScript:

local rep = game.ReplicatedStorage
local events = rep.Vehicles.RemoteEvents
local cars = rep.Vehicles.Cars
local planes = rep.Vehicles.Planes
local armor = rep.Vehicles.Armor


local locations = {
	game.Workspace.CarSpawner.Locations.Location1,
	game.Workspace.CarSpawner.Locations.Location2,
	game.Workspace.CarSpawner.Locations.Location3
}


events.Jeep.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
	if locations[1].Occupied.Value == false then
		local jeep = cars.Jeep:Clone()
		jeep.Name = plr.Name.."'s Jeep"
		jeep.Parent = workspace
		jeep:MoveTo(locations[1].Position)
		local spawnPosition = jeep.Vehicle.Model.DriveSeat.Position
		plr.PlayerGui.Interface.VehicleSpawnerFrame.Visible = false
		locations[1].Occupied.Value = true
		wait(5)
		if jeep.Vehicle.Model.DriveSeat.Position == spawnPosition then
			jeep:Destroy()
		end
		locations[1].Occupied.Value = false
	end
end)```

If you know how to fix this please help!

The car spawns in and everything works normally except it doesn’t destroy the car. No errorrs in the output logs either.

then this condition: if jeep.Vehicle.Model.DriveSeat.Position == spawnPosition then is never met.

It most likely spawn in to that Position then settled a bit. That would make it so it’s not perfectly in that Position when checked. A check like that would have to be .000, .000, .000 accurate.

Ran into somthing like this and went to timer. If not taken within the limmit it is removed.

Is there another way to do it?

Create a part for the same position and size then check if the DriveSeat is touching that part you made.

This works perfectly. Thank you :slight_smile:

Doing some checking..
I put a transparent/no colliding box part out, made a region from that,
then checked inside the region for a Vehicle Seat..

local part = workspace:WaitForChild("Part")
local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size / 2, part.Position + part.Size / 2)
local partsInRegion = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, nil, math.huge)
for _, part in ipairs(partsInRegion) do
	if part:IsA("VehicleSeat") then
		
		print("detected")
		
		break
	end
end

Once you have the numbers needed you wouldn’t need the box or keep it, works both ways.
