How to avoid this infinite loop on TeleportToPrivateServer

When a specific player enters the game, I want to TP him to a Private Server:

local TS = game:GetService("TeleportService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	if player.Name == "rogeriodec_games" then
		local Key = TS:ReserveServer(game.PlaceId)
		TS:TeleportToPrivateServer(game.PlaceId, Key, {player})
	end
end)

However, it seems that every time TS:TeleportToPrivateServer is run, PlayerAdded is run again.
How to avoid this?

You can check game.PrivateServerId and if it’s not an empty string.

You can check if the server is reserved by checking if the server doesn’t have a private server id and if the server doesn’t have any owner before connecting.

local TS = game:GetService("TeleportService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

if not (game.PrivateServerId ~= "" and game.PrivateServerOwnerId == 0) then
    Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	    if player.Name == "rogeriodec_games" then
		    local Key = TS:ReserveServer(game.PlaceId)
		    TS:TeleportToPrivateServer(game.PlaceId, Key, {player})
	    end
    end)
end
