Player.CharacterAdded function is not working without any errors

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello developers. I have script that handles data, checkpoint, teleport and some other systems but after the “Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)” line it stops working without any errors. Its not updating the checkpoints when you touch to new checkpoint part and its not teleporting player to the current stage. Here’s the script.

	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
		print('after_line')
		wait() -- Ensure character is fully loaded
		local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
		local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')

		-- Ensure stage is within valid bounds
		local stageValue = Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value
		if stageValue <= #Checkpoints:GetChildren() then
			Teleport.Player(Player, Checkpoints[stageValue].CFrame)
		end
		
		-- Set player walk speed based on GamePass ownership
		Humanoid.WalkSpeed = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(Player.UserId, 662270121) and 32 or 16

		-- Add a small delay after teleportation to prevent immediate checkpoint collisions
		wait(0.5)

		-- Checkpoint touch event
		Humanoid.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit:IsDescendantOf(Checkpoints) then
				local checkpointNumber = tonumber(hit.Name)
				if checkpointNumber == Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value + 1 then
					Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value += 1
					Sound.Player(Player, Sound.Checkpoint)
					game.ReplicatedStorage.events.Client:FireClient(Player, 'Checkpoint')
					Player.leaderstats.Coins.Value += 5
					Player.Stats.XP.Value += 15
				elseif checkpointNumber > Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value + 1 then
					Notify.Small(Player, 5, 'No cheating >:c')
					Player:LoadCharacter()
				end
			end
		end)
	end)
end)

That is hella ton of memory leaks :skull:

Should I delete the script? I thought its not that important

its not working without using that. idk why

#7

are you sure that the code stops on .CharacterAdded?? put that before print somewhere else

also… ugh, for the future, please avoid relying on GPT for your programming career, it’s not good practice and will not do you any good, use GPT for debugging, not for writing entire scripts

i can very much tell this code is AI-Generated, i won’t flame you for it, but just a heads up

(or if you’re gonna keep on using AI generated code atleast remove the comments the AI gives you so it’s not that obvious :sob:)

Yeahhhh got a feeling that theres something wrong “Ensure character is fully loaded”

its not fully Ai-Generated. I tried to fix with ai but it didnt work. if you want originial script:
Also, I tried print and it stops printing after that line.

	Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
		print('after_line')
		wait()
		local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
		local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
		

		Teleport.Player(Player, Checkpoints[Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value].CFrame)
		Humanoid.WalkSpeed = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(Player.UserId, 662270121) and 32 or 16

		Humanoid.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit.Parent == Checkpoints then
				if tonumber(hit.Name) == Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value + 1 then
					Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value += 1
					Sound.Player(Player, Sound.Checkpoint)
					game.ReplicatedStorage.events.Client:FireClient(Player, 'Checkpoint')
					Player.leaderstats.Coins.Value += 5
					Player.Stats.XP.Value += 15
				elseif tonumber(hit.Name) > Player.leaderstats.Stage.Value + 1 then
					Notify.Small(Player, 5, 'No cheating >:c')
					Player:LoadCharacter()
				end
			end
		end)
	end)
end)

Check for while loops in your modules that you are executing before characteradded connection. They might be on the same main thread

#11

i-

this code is literally the same line for line… just without comments

…sigh

can i have a video of the issue happening? along with each module’s responsibility

(i apologize for the “aggression”, but i’ve seen a bit of bluntly AI generated code with people claiming “i made this” and it’s kind of getting on my nerves now)

Better use task.spawn not spawn function.

Assuming your code is actually running and hitting the end:
