Place is restricted error when teleporting

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

My game teleports players to another place inside the same universe and sometimes players are not being teleported. If it were to teleport 40 players, 1 player might get the error that the place is restricted while it works for the others.

I use the exact code from here to teleport players:

I’m not sure what could be causing some players to not be teleported.
Two errors that sometimes pops up, not sure if they have correlation to this issue but:

Try using a pcall and spawn function, and if it gets an error make a repeat wait() until == the error is fixed.

for example:

function teleportfunction()
      local Succes, Error = pcall(function()
            for i, player in (Players) do
                   player:Teleport
            end
      end)

     if Error then
            repeat
            local Succes, Error = pcall(function()
            for i, player in (Players) do
                   player:Teleport
            end
            until Sucess == true 
      end
     end)
end

spawn(teleportfunction)

Something like that.

There’s actually a handler for this error, refer to the API Docs! :smiley:

I already use that, that is from the article I linked in my post.
None of the errors that I am getting have to do with the place being restricted either so I’m not sure what could be causing that to pop up.

I seem to be running into this issue right now. I’m logging failures to teleport, and it seems as though there’s going to be some individuals that just fail to teleport. I know teleports are handled client-side so if a teleport were to fail then it’d fail because the client experienced an issue while attempting to teleport, usually this behavior is consistent with that player.
