Group rank door occasionally letting people not in the group in

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I have a group rank door that only lets people in my group in but occasionally it lets people that aren’t the high enough role in the group in? Should I put a PlayerAdded event in a local script and set the doors cancollide to false if they’re in the group?
code:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name)
		if player:GetRankInGroup(7886882) >= 3 then
			script.Parent.CanCollide = false
		else
			script.Parent.CanCollide = true
		end
	end
end)

Is this in a local script? If its on the server and someone in the group touches the door, its still CanCollide false so anyone can walk through.

You could do something like this.

local System = {
	Running = false,
	Functions = {},
	GroupId = 7886882,
	MinRank = 3,
	MaxRank = 255,
	Cooldown = 0.5
}

function System.Functions.CloseDoor(door)
	door.CanCollide = true
	System.Running = false
end

function System.Functions.OpenDoor(door)
	door.CanCollide = false
	wait(System.Cooldown or 2)
	System.Functions.CloseDoor(door)
end

function System.Functions.Run(hit)
	
	local GID,Min,Max = System.GroupId,System.MinRank,System.MaxRank
	
	local Players = game:GetService("Players")
	local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	
	if not player or not GID or not Min or not Max then 
		System.Running = false
		return
	end
	
	local rank = player:GetRankInGroup(GID)
	
	if rank >= Min and rank <= Max then
		System.Functions.OpenDoor(script.Parent)
	end
end



script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if System.Running == false then
		System.Running = true
		System.Functions.Run(hit)
	else
		return
	end
end)

If you really want to do this the exact way you scripted it, I would suggest using FireClient() and set the CanCollide property there.

Doing this on the server-side will let everyone in as that change is automatically replicated to all players.
However, FireClient will solve that issue.
