I’m trying to make a function with a infinite loop run whenever character added, and whenever the character respawned it’ll start this function from the beginning.
the following code works, but it shows this error for some reason.
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local mainloop
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(chr)
mainloop = coroutine.create(MainGameLoop)
if coroutine.status(mainloop) ~= "dead" then
coroutine.resume(mainloop, plr, chr)
end
end)
plr.CharacterRemoving:Connect(function(chr)
coroutine.close(mainloop)
end)
end)
Even though I check if it’s dead or not it shows this error.
I would suggest to print the coroutine status before checking it with a statement, I would also exchange coroutine.status with coroutine.running to better ensure that it isn’t dead and is able to keep resuming.
it always prints “suspended”, also how do you exchange the coroutine.status with coroutine.running? and which coroutine it returns if there are more than one coroutine running?
For exchanging between them you just switch them in the argument of: if coroutine.status(mainloop) ~= "dead" then to if coroutine.running(mainloop) ~= "dead" then , also it returns the running coroutine which I assume is the closest thread that is running.
coroutine.running() doesn’t take any arguments, also it returns a thread and not a string, meaning this statement will always be true because coroutine.running() will nerver return the string “dead”.
unless i miss something?
