Reserved Server takes 7 seconds to start teleporting

This is a fairly simple, very rustic code. I came with it on the spot and will make some small changes later. However, I haven’t identified why it takes 7 seconds for the player to be teleported.

print("starting")
--print("StandardServer")
local TeleportService = game:GetService("TeleportService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local code = TeleportService:ReserveServer(game.PlaceId)

local playerFolder = game.ServerStorage.Lobby1 

local playerList = {}

for _, item in ipairs(playerFolder:GetChildren()) do
	local player = Players:FindFirstChild(item.Name)
	if player then
		table.insert(playerList, player)
	end
end


--print("Teleporting")
print("here we go")
if #playerList >= 1 then
	TeleportService:TeleportToPrivateServer(game.PlaceId, code, playerList)
else
	--print("No one wants to play :(")
end

During the process the output says this: “Starting” … 7 seconds later… “here we go” and they get telaported.

At first I thought it was my internet, but I tested other games that use this concept and once the timer is at 0 I get teleported right away.

If I had to guess, :ReserveServer() might take a while to load, thus yielding the code.

Thats my guess anyways. If you wanted to be sure of this you could just comment out the part where you call it and see how fast “Here we go” is printed
