Click play to end cutscene and spawn in

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:10pm

I already have it so when you join you are presented with the title and a play button Along with that there are different camera points around the map so the camera moves around. But I want it so when before you click play your player does not spawn. I also need help scripting it so when you click play the camera switched from moving around the map to the classic Roblox camera view; As well with removing the title and play button from the players screen. Here is what I have so far:

Can you please provide your code within the text format in the code blocks?
So I can rewrite it.

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:25pm

What do you mean by code blocks?

Synitx · May 11, 2022, 8:26pm

local hi : string = "hello"

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:28pm

What is this you are showing me?

Synitx · May 11, 2022, 8:34pm

Thats a code block, copy the code of your cutscene and paste it in the blocks
So it will be easier for me to edit it.

Okay give me a moment, I’ll provide you the fixed code with the explanation.

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:41pm

Are you going to add the player does not spawn until they click play and when they click play it switches to the players camera view?

Synitx · May 11, 2022, 8:42pm

Yep, I got what you mean.
Like first camera moves to different points they are called as Test{partNumber}
Whenever player clicks the play button that background camera animation stops and camera focus on the player.

NicoleSydor · May 11, 2022, 8:46pm

I’ve made a new script which does everything you asked for.

Plays cutscene until player clicks play button
Once menu is invisible, spawns the character (uses LoadCharacter function to load the character)

ServerScript inside ServerScriptService

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Event = ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("spawnPlayer")
if not Event then
	local newEvent = Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
	newEvent.Name = "spawnPlayer"
	newEvent.Parent = ReplicatedStorage
	Event = newEvent
end

Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	if Player:GetAttribute("loadedMenu") == false then
		Player:SetAttribute("loadedMenu", true)
		Player:LoadCharacter()
	end
end)

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) 
	Player:SetAttribute("loadedMenu", false)
	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Char)
		if Player:GetAttribute("loadedMenu") == false then
			Char:Destroy()
		end
	end)
end)

(EDIT#1) LocalScript inside your play button

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local StarterGui = game:GetService("StarterGui")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local camera = game.Workspace.Camera

StarterGui:SetCore("ResetButtonCallback", false)

local setting = {}
setting.cutsceneTime = 5;
setting.cutscenePrefix = "Test";
setting.tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
	setting.cutsceneTime,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Sine,
	Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
	0,
	false,
	0

setting.TweenObjectsLocation = game.Workspace;
setting.myMethod = true; -- By using my method there will be a white flash tween which will tween a new frame to fully visible, change menu frame visible to false and then load to player

	if inMenu == false then
		repeat task.wait() until menuVisible == false
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	end
end

task.wait(2)

local spawnCharacterEventFind = ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("spawnPlayer")
if spawnCharacterEventFind then
	spawnCharacterEventFind.Parent = nil
	spawnCharacterEvent = spawnCharacterEventFind
end

local ObjectsToTween = {}
function addTweenObject(index, obj)
	ObjectsToTween[index] = obj

	spawnPlr() -- DO NOT DELETE THIS LINE! put it after the line where you change the menu frame visible to false
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(PlayButton)

A few things to keep note of:

You should see a settings table inside of the LocalScript. All the settings are there and you can change them if you want.
There is a “myMethod” setting and what this does is uses my method to make the title and play disappear (or menu), but you will have to specifiy what your menu frame is, in the MenuFrame variable, or your own variable (if you’re not using my method), or else it will not work!
I also suggest going through every line of the code and looking for the notes (notes look like this -- hello), I’ve created the notes so you know how to properly configure the script and understand it without making an error.

Also, whenever someone solves your topic, make sure to click the solution button to give them credit! There are others on here who might be having the same issue that you were having, so doing this would help them find the solution.

Do I need to get rid of my current script or do I keep it?

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:48pm

And is a serverscript just a script?

NicoleSydor · May 11, 2022, 8:48pm

You can disable it temporarily, just in case my scripts don’t work, but then add the LocalScript I provided into the play button and another to ServerScriptService which will be the ServerScript. Also, yes, ServerScript is a normal Script.

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:49pm

Will this new script keep the cutscene looping?

NicoleSydor · May 11, 2022, 8:49pm

Yes, it will keep the cutscene looping and prevent the player from spawning in until they click the play button.

develofied · May 11, 2022, 8:50pm

Do I need to change anything or test it right off the bat?

NicoleSydor · May 11, 2022, 8:53pm

Yeah, you need to change stuff… just read through the post I just made and there will be instructions for proper setup.

develofied · May 11, 2022, 9:00pm

What do you mean by this?

NicoleSydor · May 11, 2022, 9:01pm

It will just make a new frame on the screen that will tween in, close out of the menu, and then the frame will disappear. The Player character will load in after that
