Intermission System [BOUNTY]

[Dev_Las]

Hello Developers,

Problem: After the cloned map got destroyed, and it does (correctfully) restart the round so it counts down from 10 to 0 but then 1. it does NOT choose the map again and 2. it keeps counting down from 10 in a loop without counting from 60 down or checking if winners >= players.

Any help is apprechiated. A fix will be rewarded with Robux.

while true do
	local playerCount = #Players:GetPlayers()

	while playerCount < 2 do
		local dotsCount = 0
		repeat
			Status.Value = "Waiting For Players" .. string.rep(".", dotsCount)
			wait(0.5)
			dotsCount = (dotsCount + 1) % 4
			playerCount = #Players:GetPlayers()
		until playerCount >= 2 or playerCount == 0
	end

	for i = 10, 1, -1 do
		Status.Value = "New Round Starting: " .. i
		wait(1)
	end

	if #Players:GetPlayers() < 2 then
		Status.Value = "Not enough players. Cancelling intermission."
		wait(3)
		continue
	end

	Status.Value = "Game Starting!"
	wait(1.5)

	local ChosenGame = Maps[math.random(1, #Maps)]
	local ClonedMap = ChosenGame:Clone()
	ClonedMap.Parent = game.Workspace

	for _, Player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		local Character = Player.Character
		if Character then
			local humanoidRootPart = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
			if humanoidRootPart then
				humanoidRootPart.CFrame = ClonedMap.TeleportBlock.CFrame

				ClonedMap.Start.StartPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
					wait(0.1)
					local character = hit.Parent
					local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

					local username = humanoid.Parent.Name

					if not soundPlayed[username] then
						table.insert(Participants, username)
						soundPlayed[username] = true

						if not Participants[username] then
							participatePlayer(username)
							print("Participated Player: "..username)
						end
					end
				end)
				ClonedMap.Finish.FinishPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
					wait(0.1)
					local character = hit.Parent
					local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

					local username = humanoid.Parent.Name

					if not finishSoundPlayed[username] then
						table.insert(Winners, username)
						finishSoundPlayed[username] = true

						if not Winners[username] then
							print("Win Player: "..username)
							winPlayer(username)
						end
					end
				end)
			end
		end
	end

	for count = 60, 0, -1 do
		Status.Value = tostring(count)

		if #Winners >= #Players:GetPlayers() then
			print("Ending countdown early.")
			break
		end

		wait(1)
	end

	ClonedMap:Destroy()

	currentPlace = 0
end

Are you getting any error messages in the output?

@Dev_Las

#Players:GetPlayers() < 2

So apparently this is the culprit. It tells you the player count is MAXIMUM of 1. Any player count above 1, including 2, 3, 4 … n will result in restarting the intermission loop.

[Dev_Las]

I mean yes, as long as there’s 2 or more players I want the round to keep restarting.

[Dev_Las]

No. I’m not getting any errors.

[anon81993163]

That’s strange. Can you check the Maps while it is running? It looks like you have to check things on run-time I assume.

this video shows the problem

[anon81993163]

Ah, so it skips the entire chunk of code where you should have the map loaded and players teleported into. I noticed something in the video, and that is the players being teleported through humanoidRootPart.CFrame = ClonedMap.TeleportBlock.CFrame despite no whole map being there.

However, when the next map loads, all players incidentally cause #Winners >= #Players:GetPlayers() to be true. Ending the timer early and restarting the game intermission early. Maybe you have forgotten to clear out the #Winners when needed? It all happens lightning fast, so you will never notice the map loading and deleting at the same time.

The problem was that I didn’t clear the Winners table! Thanks a lot, please send a gamepass of 100 Robux.
