Hi,
I’m trying to create a main menu for one of my games. The idea is to have the main menu use a camera part facing a mesh, with a few buttons displayed in the screen GUI until the player clicks the (Continue) button, which will then spawn them.
The issue I’m running into is that when I run the game the player spawns first along with its default camera before loading the actual main menu and its camera.
I tried fixing this by disabling CharacterAutoLoads, so that the player doesn’t spawn until they click “Continue”. I tried this and get an “Infinite yield possible” warning in the output, and the main menu doesn’t show.
StarterPlayerScripts:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local spawnEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SpawnPlayer")
if not game:IsLoaded() then
game.Loaded:Wait()
end
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
local mainMenuCamPart = workspace:WaitForChild("Menu"):WaitForChild("MainMenuCam")
camera.CFrame = mainMenuCamPart.CFrame
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local menuGui = playerGui:WaitForChild("MenuGui")
local Background = menuGui:WaitForChild("Background")
local continueButton = Background:WaitForChild("ContinueButton")
local characterButton = Background:FindFirstChild("CharacterButton")
local aboutButton = Background:FindFirstChild("AboutButton")
continueButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
RunService:UnbindFromRenderStep("CameraUpdate")

local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
camera.CameraSubject = humanoid
menuGui:Destroy()
end)
if characterButton then
characterButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
