Directly joining sub-place

I wanna allow players where when they click play, the are immediately put in a personal sub place. No loading into start place, waiting 2-3 seconds then teleporting.

I found this, but I don’t know if this is what I’m specifically wanting

The onkly game I can find what I imagine is Islands

It says server size is 20, but when you join, you join I guess a private server? Roblox won’t automatically put you in that place, you have to specifically teleport. So I imagine that means when I join the server size isn’t 1, but they somehow get you a reserved server immediately, no joining start place

I don’t believe Roblox lets you automatically put people into the subplace (without code).

I had a look a the Islands thing you linked, and I suspect that what they did is:

  • Set the Server Fill thing to prioritise 1 player servers.
  • Upon joining, immediately have a “loading” ui pop up.
  • If the server already has players, then create a new one and have the player teleported there using a custom loading screen (which can be specified using TeleportService:SetTeleportGui()).

I’m fairly confident that this is how it was done as, when I deliberately joined a server with players in it (using the server list thing on Roblox website), I could see players for a couple of seconds at the top right of the screen. Then, all CoreUI was disabled (so i couldn’t hit escape, for example), which is characteristic of loading into a place, for a few seconds before I was put into an empty server.

you almost definitely are joining the start place. it’s just that the teleport likely happens too quick for players on most connections to notice.
