Map is not replicating to Workspace properly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Basically what I want to do is make random maps from the folder “Maps” duplicate into the Workspace and be placed at the loader’s specific position.

Here is the part of the script I am having trouble with:

Here is the error I keep getting in the output:

For some reason, it’s unable to replicate the map from RS. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Can you send the explorer? It also may be because you are running that script before the game is loaded.

try adding this to the top of your script

local Maps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Maps")

This means map ‘Randomizer’ is not found in “ReplicatedStorage.Maps”.
Also, Clone code is not properly used. check example code: Instance | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

#5 
local Maps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Maps")
local loaderCount = 0
for i = 1, 9, 1 do
    loaderCount = loaderCount + 1
    local movetopos = workspace["Loader" .. loaderCount].Position
    print(movetopos)
    for i = 1, #maps do
        local chosenmap = maps[math.random(1,#maps)]
        local mapclone = chosenmap:Clone()
    end
    mapclone.Parent = workspace
    mapclone:MoveTo(movetopos)
end

Try using this code. If it doesn’t work tell me the error

Will do, give me a second! :heart:

Just curious, why are you loading 9 random maps and why are you using

for i = 1, #maps do
   local chosenmap = maps[math.random(1,#maps)]
   local mapclone = chosenmap:Clone()
end

when you could use

local chosenmap = maps[math.random(1,#maps)]
local mapclone = chosenmap:Clone()

Hello there. I tried your code out and it seems to be working just fine. However, it does not seem to place the maps accordingly:

#10

do you have something called Loader3 in the workspace?

#11

Yes, I have 9 loader parts for 9 random maps I want to load. Edit: The map uses 9 loaders but the script seems to break at 3.

#12

Ok, maybe try :WaitForChild when loading the map

is there anything that tampers with these loaders? maybe parents them or deletes them?

#14

could you show a pic of your explorer?

Hey again. The map duplicated normally:

However, it’s stacked multiple times and it is not placed on the loaders accordingly.
Here is the current script as it is right now:

Use cframes. Make a part and place it in the center of your map and make it the primary part. Then, use :SetPrimaryPartCFrame(movetopos) and make movetopos a CFrame

#17 
local Maps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Maps")
local loaderCount = 0
for i = 1, 9, 1 do
    loaderCount = loaderCount + 1
    local movetopos = workspace["Loader" .. loaderCount].CFrame
    print(movetopos)
    for i = 1, #maps do
        local chosenmap = maps[math.random(1,#maps)]
        local mapclone = chosenmap:Clone()
    end
    mapclone.Parent = workspace
    mapclone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(movetopos)
end
