  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want my players to get teleported to a specific place everytime when they die/reset.

  2. What is the issue?
    Whenever i die it tells me that i don’t have a HumanoidRootPart when my character has one

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    I tried adding a :WaitForChild() but i got an infinite yield, I also tried changing it from R15 to R6, still the same errors, i got into the server and the server has the humanoidrootpart inside my character

–[[

Infinite yield possible on 'Workspace.Steven_Rafft:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")'

]]–
Heres what i have in my script

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	if game.ServerStorage.GameStarted.Value == true then
		for i, v in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
			if v.Name == plr.Name then
				v.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = workspace.map.SpawnArea.CFrame
			end
		end
	end
	
	workspace:WaitForChild(plr.Name).Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
		workspace[plr.Name]:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
		workspace[plr.Name].HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = workspace.map.SpawnArea.CFrame
	end)
	
end)

This is extremely confusing since there is an humanoidrootpart in the player character, it’s like only the client has an instance of the humanoidrootpart

This code is badly organized and I believe that you are trying to set the humanoid root part position of a dead humanoid. Why not use Player.CharacterAdded instead of Humanoid.Died?

I can agree with you because he’s trying to move a dead humanoid

Whenever a player joins it also does it aswell is there something to make it not do that?

Use an if statement to check for wanted conditions.

– Here is your solution; very simple and quick. I would be apperciated if you pin this reply as your solution –

local SpawnLocation = game.Workspace[“Type you spawn location’s name here”]

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) – This is the player
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) – This is the player’s character which includes HumanoidRootPart
char:FindFirstChild(“HumanoidRootPart”).CFrame = CFrame.new(SpawnLocation.Position) – Teleports the player when his character is added
end)
end)

Thanks for the answer but @Weldify told me how to fix it aswell so you both have the solution. I have forgotten about the CharacterAdded function, haven’t used it in a while.
