Player doesn't get teleported

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Greetings,

I have a part that when the player touches it, the part sends an event that triggers another script. The script teleports the player so that he cannot reactivate the part by hitting it again. I have problems with teleporting the player, please help. The script is down below:

The script

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local OpenMenuEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("CarMechanicJob1").OpenJobGUI
local CloseMenuEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("CarMechanicJob1").CloseJobGUI

OpenMenuEvent.Event:Connect(function(player)
	local RootPart = player:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRoot")
	RootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-30.605, 4.221, 1256.933)  ---Problematic line... (7)
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = "Scriptable"
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame = workspace.CarMechanicJob1.JobCamera.CFrame
	script.Parent.Visible = true
end)

The error

it’s “HumanoidRootPart” and not “HumanoidRoot” and is a parent of character, not player.

HumanoidRootPart is child of Character, not Player
There is no such thing ‘HumanoidRoot’ in the player. It has ‘HumanoidRootPart’ inside the character, not the player.

Ok but what about my actual problem? Line 7… Not 6. The error is listed in the post description

Replace your code with this :

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local OpenMenuEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("CarMechanicJob1").OpenJobGUI
local CloseMenuEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("CarMechanicJob1").CloseJobGUI

OpenMenuEvent.Event:Connect(function(player)
	local RootPart = player.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	RootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-30.605, 4.221, 1256.933)  ---Problematic line... (7)
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = "Scriptable"
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame = workspace.CarMechanicJob1.JobCamera.CFrame
	script.Parent.Visible = true
end)

It should work now.

Great solution! Works flawlessly! Is there a way I can add a cooldown that will make the part not work when touched for like (example) 10 seconds from the first time a player touches it? Whenever I touch it, it just goes wild with about 100+ touches.

Of course! You can use debounces [ variables] to add a delay,
if you need help with debounces, I made a quick tutorial on it

this is what i do
local script in starterpack:

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local humrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

normal script in serverscriptservices:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local humrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
end)
