Character does not change after selecting a team

[r8ynmf9afrl10890gp20 (zleqat2)]

When the player selects a team using the GUI (either “Guard” or “Infected”), the server receives the event and attempts to replace the character with a custom model (GuardModel or InfectedModel). However, instead of spawning the selected custom character, Roblox spawns the default character.

Here is a video

Here is my serverscript

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local chooseEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Events"):WaitForChild("ChooseTeam")
local modelsFolder = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Models")

local function replaceCharacter(player, templateModel)
	local customModel = templateModel:Clone()
	customModel.Name = player.Name

	local root = customModel:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not root then
		warn("Where is HumanoidRootPart bro?")
		return
	end
	customModel.PrimaryPart = root

	player:LoadCharacter(customModel)
end

chooseEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, teamName)
	if teamName == "Guard" then
		player.Team = Teams.Guard
		replaceCharacter(player, modelsFolder:WaitForChild("GuardModel"))
	elseif teamName == "Infected" then
		player.Team = Teams.Infected
		replaceCharacter(player, modelsFolder:WaitForChild("InfectedModel"))
	else
		player.Team = Teams.Choosing
		player:LoadCharacter()
	end
end)

Here is LocalScript

local RepStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local chooseEvent = RepStorage:WaitForChild("Events"):WaitForChild("ChooseTeam")
local ChooseGui = RepStorage:WaitForChild("ChooseGui")
local ChoosingTeam = Teams:WaitForChild("Choosing")

local function setupGui()
	local guiClone = ChooseGui:Clone()
	guiClone.ResetOnSpawn = false
	guiClone.Parent = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

	local infectedButton = guiClone.Frame.InfectedButton
	local guardButton = guiClone.Frame.GuardButton

	infectedButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
		chooseEvent:FireServer("Infected")
	end)

	guardButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
		chooseEvent:FireServer("Guard")
	end)

	local function updateGui()
		guiClone.Enabled = (player.Team == ChoosingTeam)
	end

	updateGui()
	player:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Team"):Connect(updateGui)
end

setupGui()
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(setupGui)

Teams: Infected, Guard, Choosing

You can’t morph the character by passing it into the LoadCharacter method. You have to switch the player’s character and clone all the character scripts.

I made a quick lil morph function 4 u

local function Morph(Player:Player, MorphModel:Model)
	local PlayerModel = Player.Character
	if not PlayerModel then return end
	
	local NewModel = MorphModel:Clone()
	NewModel.Name = Player.Name
	Player.Character = NewModel
	
	NewModel:PivotTo(PlayerModel.PrimaryPart.CFrame)
	
	for Index, Child in game.StarterPlayer.StarterCharacterScripts:GetChildren() do
		Child:Clone().Parent = NewModel
	end
	
	NewModel.Parent = workspace
	PlayerModel:Destroy()
end

True, :LoadCharacter() doesnt even accept any arguments..

Player:LoadCharacter() returns nothing than your model character roblox

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local chooseEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Events"):WaitForChild("ChooseTeam")
local modelsFolder = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Models")

local teams={
teams0={
["Choosing"]=Teams.Choosing,
["Guard"]=Teams.Guard,
["Infected"]=Teams.Infected
},
teamsmodel={
--["Choosing"]="NONE",
["Guard"]=modelsFolder.GuardModel,
["Infected"]=modelsFolder.InfectedModel
},
}

local function replaceCharacter(player: Player, templateMode: Model)
player.Character:Destory()
	local customModel = templateModel:Clone()
	customModel.Name = player.Name

	local root = customModel:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not root then
		warn("Where is HumanoidRootPart bro?")
		return
	end
	customModel.PrimaryPart = root
player.Character = customModel
customModel.Parent = Workspace
end


-- terrible looking code...
chooseEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player: Player, teamname: String)
for i,v in teams.teams0 do
for i0,v0 in teamsmodel do
if teamname = i and not player.Team == v then
player.Team = v
end
if teamname = i0 then
replaceCharacter(player, v0)
end
end
end
end)

Also you don’t need to use if alot, you can use like this dictionaries inside tables

(Thanks, Updated)

@Microlosofto

replaceCharacter(player, v0)

Randomly popped in but this would error. You’d pass a string of “NONE” into the function, and it would try cloning the string… Just a little feedback
