Help with doors generation

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

im trying to make a doors-type game with GnomeCodes doors tutorial videos. I have gotten to the 3rd video but have noticed he never shows how to make a certain room generate at say room 50 for example. i have 100 rooms generating at the moment and i want certain rooms to not be random and have a specific room spawn. how can i do that?

Check rooms amount by

#Path:GetChildren()
-- It will give you length of a table (GetChildren() gives you a table)
-- Using # before table giving you length of a table

Then lets say if its 50, you can create special room

(If you didnā€™t know, # works only with arrays (Where its like [1], [2], and not [ā€œSomethingā€], [ā€œIdkā€], it will just ignore these)

does it matter where in the script i put it?

this is it

local room = {}
room.info = require(script.RoomInfo)
room.lastTurnDirection = nil
room.random = Random.new()

function room.GetRandom(prevRoom)
local totalWeight = 0
for i, info in pairs(room.info) do
totalWeight += info.Weight
end

local randomWeight = room.random:NextNumber(0, totalWeight)
local currentWeight = 0
local randomRoom = nil
for i, info in pairs(room.info) do
	currentWeight += info.Weight
	if randomWeight <= currentWeight then
		randomRoom = workspace.Rooms[i]
		break
	end
end


local direction = room.info[randomRoom.Name]["Direction"]
local hasStairs = room.info[randomRoom.Name]["Stairs"]
local prevHadStairs = room.info[prevRoom.Name]["Stairs"]

if (prevRoom.Name == randomRoom.name) 
	or (direction and direction == room.lastTurnDirection) 
	or (hasStairs and prevHadStairs) 
then
	return room.GetRandom(prevRoom)
else
	if direction then
		room.lastTurnDirection = direction
	end
	
	return randomRoom
end

end

function room.Generate(prevRoom)
local randomRoom = room.GetRandom(prevRoom)
local newRoom = randomRoom:Clone()

newRoom.PrimaryPart = newRoom.Entrance
newRoom:PivotTo(prevRoom.Exit.CFrame)
newRoom.Entrance.Transparency = 1
newRoom.Exit.Transparency = 1

newRoom.Parent = workspace.GeneratedRooms

return newRoom

end

return room

Put it before generating new room,
check amount of created rooms,
if it = to lets say 50,
you force select room

Where you select room, check rooms amount, if its at your wanted amount, force select any room
