game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
        plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
            local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
            local humanoidRootPart = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
            local profile = DataService:GetNumber(plr)
            local checkpoint = profile.Checkpoint
            humanoidRootPart.CFrame = game.Workspace.Checkpoint[checkpoint].TP.CFrame 
        end)
    end)

This just won’t work. Everything is anchored nothing is falling. No errors. It prints the profile checkpoint too…

Not sure off the top of my head why it wouldn’t work, but try redefining the char variable?
Maybe try:

local char = workspace[plr.Name]

I usually do this convention if it doesn’t work otherwise.

There’s an example for teleporting a Character as soon as they spawn on developer.roblox.com in the CharacterAdded page. You need to wait a physics step, RunService.Stepped:Wait(), before CFraming.

I’m assuming it’s because roblox handles loading the character in workspace and teleporting them to where they should spawn by default in that first physics step.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
        plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
           local HumanoidRootPart = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
           repeat
               wait()
           until HumanoidRootPart
            local checkpoint = tostring(plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Stages.Value)
            local checkpointFolder = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Checkpoint")

code fixed :smiley:
