Make script run once

[Andree0921 (Rau)]

Hello, I’m in a need of help with a script.
This script is supposed to pick a random player, and change their team to Bright Violet, and the rest of the players would be Bright Red. But I’m not sure why this script runs multiple times. How can I make it run only once?

local Motherscript = {}

function Motherscript.Execute()
	local players = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()

	local hostIndex = math.random(1, #players)
	local hostPlayer = players[hostIndex]

	local hostTp = workspace.HostTp
	local candidatesTp = workspace.CandidatesTp

	local function TeleportPlayer(player, position, teamColor)
		if player.Character then
			local humanoid = player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			if humanoid and humanoid.Sit then
				humanoid.Sit = false
			end

			wait(0.1)

			if player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Seat") then
				player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(position))
			else
				player.Character:MoveTo(position)
			end
		end

		player.TeamColor = teamColor
	end

	hostPlayer.Team = game:GetService("Teams"):FindFirstChild("Host")

	TeleportPlayer(hostPlayer, hostTp.Position, BrickColor.new("Bright violet"))

	local candidatesTeam = game:GetService("Teams"):FindFirstChild("Candidates")
	local brightRedColor = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
	for i, player in ipairs(players) do
		if i ~= hostIndex then
			player.Team = candidatesTeam
			TeleportPlayer(player, candidatesTp.Position, brightRedColor)
		end
	end

	print("Executing ModuleScript...")
end

return Motherscript

script.Disable, or make a varible and make an if statement

You could try checking if the hostPlayer is not equal to the current player instead of the hostIndex in your for loop.

	for i, player in ipairs(players) do
		if i ~= hostIndex then -- Consider doing hostPlayer ~= player
			player.Team = candidatesTeam
			TeleportPlayer(player, candidatesTp.Position, brightRedColor)
		end
	end
