Help With Team Change

CoreyTimes · October 18, 2021, 7:44pm

Hello, so I’m working on a main menu. I’m not sure why it’s not changing the players team. I have a gui in startgui with a local script that does everything. Here is what it says.

function hitPlay()
if selectedTeam == “N/A” then
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = true
wait(5)
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = false
elseif selectedTeam ~= “N/A” then
guiEvents.TeamChange:FireServer(plr, selectedTeam)
guiEvents.ReloadChar:FireServer(plr)
script.Parent.Enabled = false
end
end

The selectedTeam has the teams brick color that the player selected in the menu. It works but when I tried to change the players team from there, it didn’t run through the server so it only changed it on the client. I’m then made a script in server script service.
I have a remove event in replicated storage that the local script fires when the player hits play. I’m not sure how to transfer data though. I don’t know how to transfer what team the player selected in the gui.
Here is what the code in server script server is.

guiEvents.TeamChange.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, selectedTeam)
plr.TeamColor = selectedTeam
end)

function hitPlay()
if selectedTeam == BrickColor.new(0.9,0.8,0.1) ----- team color here then
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = false
wait(5)
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = true
elseif selectedTeam ~= BrickColor.new(0,0,0) ----- team color here then
guiEvents.TeamChange:FireServer(plr, selectedTeam)
guiEvents.ReloadChar:FireServer(plr)
script.Parent.Enabled = false
end
end

you said selectedTeam is brick color so brick color cant be a string “N/A”

When the player clicks the team, it changed the selectedTeam value.

MdoxxxDSQa · October 18, 2021, 8:11pm

look selected team it is string you have to make it break color in script remove this local selectedTeam = “N/A” and replace it with the script igave you local selectedTeam = plr.TeamColor just try

CoreyTimes · October 18, 2021, 8:12pm

It doesn’t work. It does the same thing as last time.

MdoxxxDSQa · October 18, 2021, 8:13pm

and do this after it replace hit play() with

function hitPlay()
if selectedTeam == BrickColor.new("Dark stone grey") then ----- team color here then
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = false
wait(5)
mainMenuUI.SelectTeam.Visible = true
elseif selectedTeam ~= BrickColor.new("Deep orange") then  ----- team color here then
guiEvents.TeamChange:FireServer(plr, selectedTeam)
guiEvents.ReloadChar:FireServer(plr)
script.Parent.Enabled = false
end
end

CoreyTimes · October 18, 2021, 8:16pm

The play button doesn’t even do anything now.

MdoxxxDSQa · October 18, 2021, 8:18pm

re copy and past the script and change the color inside BrickColor.new(“Deep orange”) to match what you want teams color be this is it
