Do you have any game where we can see this code in action? Not uncopylocked, just the game itself cause there is a heap of code here.

#3

Never mind, found the error. You instead want to do for i = 0, #GameLength do

(If the error still persists, I recommend rechecking variables and the output for anything that pops up.)

That loop is correct. The loop he defined is saying count down from 50.

Another problem When the player is killed They just stand there till the game ends

That may have to do with respawn time on the spawnpoints, check the spawnpoints respawn time.

#8

The spawn time is instant As said in the code

#9

No no, I mean the physical spawns themselves.

#10

I think your problem lies in the plrs variable you defined. First off, to get a list of all players you can simply do:

local plrs = game:GetService("Players"):GetChildren()

As for why I point this out, it’s quite weird how you handle the players ingame. I think your issue resides in how you check each second whether or not the match has ended. Why not use the Teams service to do most of the work for you by assigning the competetors to a team and the dead in another?

(Edit: for below, the reason why that’s failing is because you can’t get the length of a number. Stick with what you had.)

Here is a error For that
[ ServerScriptService.MainScript:90: attempt to get length of a number value]

#12

True, that would be a better system then constantly getting the children out of the players themselves.

#13

So I have To Make my plrs Table to Teams?
The Game Supports up to 14 players

That is on my part, for i = 0, tostring(GameLength) do

Try this instead.

#15

No, tostring converts a number to a string value. Also, he is trying to count down. He is not trying to count up. For counting down, you do something like

for i = 50, 0, -1 do

end
#16

Yes, all you will have to do is get the current players team, and if they have died while on the Playing team their team should be changed to the Lobby team.

#17

The End just broke the whole game :frowning:

#18

The End? What do you mean. Also, that was just an example of counting down.

#19

You are right, I’m still fairly new to using for loops; so yeah.

It immediately ends 2 seconds after “Get ready to play”. This tells me this part is the issue (I am going to read it more in depth but here is where the issue is):
