Characters not reloading?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello! I am trying to make an artificial respawn system as I currently have a script that interferes with the normal one. When I run the game the first print statement goes off but the one inside of the while loop doesn’t. This is in a server script, DefaultRS is equal to 1, and this is not the only PlayerAdded event.

I will elaborate if needed.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	print(Player.Name.." has joined!")
	print(DefaultRS)
	game.Workspace:WaitForChild(Player.Name)
	while Player.Character.Humanoid.Health <= 0 do
		print(Player.Name.." is respawning!")
		wait(DefaultRS)
		Player:LoadCharacter()
	end
end)

You can use .Died instead of that loop, like:

game:GetService('Players').PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		-- Do your own stuff here
		character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
			player:LoadCharacter()
		end)
	end)
end)

As for the LoadCharacter, it’s a bit touchy & I’m not sure if you can. It really depends on what you are using to prevent the player from respawning.

After adding an if statement and modifying some other stuff it works now!

The modified script looks like this:

game:GetService('Players').PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	print(Player.Name.." has joined the game!")
	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
		Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
			if TSActive == false then
				wait(DefaultRS)
				print(Player.Name.." is respawning!")
				Player:LoadCharacter()
			elseif TSActive == true then
				while TSActive == true do
					wait(0.1)
				end
				wait(DefaultRS)
				print(Player.Name.." is respawning!")
				Player:LoadCharacter()
			end
		end)
	end)
end)
