Roblox Sword Fighting Game stuck on "Intermission"

I was trying to make it so that I had multiple maps in my game, but I accidentally made an error in the script and I don’t know how to fix it.

So, my game has rounds and every round the map could change, but then on the 2nd-3rd round it got stuck on “Intermission”

And comes up with this error.

I will show you what is in my game to make it easier.

So the problem is with the MainScript.
The “Stats” script is irrelivant to the problem.
I’ll show you whats inside of the “MainScript”

local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local mapsFolder = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("Maps")
local statusTag = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Status")

-- Constants
local GAME_LENGTH = 50
local REWARD = 25
local PLAYERS_REQUIRED = 2
local INTERMISSION_TIME = 10

-- Functions
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
	local function onCharacterAdded(character)
		local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
			if CollectionService:HasTag(player, "Alive") then
				CollectionService:RemoveTag(player, "Alive")
			end
		end)
	end
	if player.Character then
		onCharacterAdded(player.Character)
	end
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(onCharacterAdded)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

-- Main loop
while true do
	-- Waiting for players
	statusTag.Value = "Waiting for enough players"
	repeat
		task.wait(1)
	until
	#Players:GetPlayers() >= PLAYERS_REQUIRED

	-- Intermission
	for i = INTERMISSION_TIME, 0, -1 do

	task.wait(3)

	local activePlayers = Players:GetPlayers()
	local spawns = game.ServerStorage.Maps:FindFirstChild(ChosenMap)
	if not spawns then

			CollectionService:AddTag(player, "Alive")
		end
	end

	statusTag.Value = "Get ready to play!"
	task.wait(2)

	for i = GAME_LENGTH, 0, -1 do
		if #CollectionService:GetTagged("Alive") == 1 then

		end
		task.wait(1)
		statusTag.Value = "There are " .. i .. " seconds remaining, and " .. #CollectionService:GetTagged("Alive") .. " players left"
	end

	print("END OF GAME")

	for _, player in pairs(activePlayers) do

			player.Character.Sword:Destroy()
		end
		player:LoadCharacter()
	end

	game.ServerStorage.Maps:FindFirstChild(ChosenMap):Destroy()
	statusTag.Value = "Game over"
	task.wait(2)
end

Ive tried checking for capitals and looking at the error but I can’t seem to find the problem.
Thanks.
Sincerely, Jace.

Interval Is Empty
" This error occurs when you pass the same integers of values that converge to the exact integers in the function. Or when your upper limit is lower than the lower limit . It creates an empty set of intervals. For example, if we execute math.random(5,1), this will throw an error because there is no interval from 5 to 1. (It should’ve been random(1,5)) "

Something is wrong with your Maps list, try debugging and seeing which maps it gathers.

Hey, could you check my newest post and help me there??

Sorry I don’t have any ideas that aren’t in the comments.

alvinblox and his tutorials… good old times anyways,

you made maps into an empty table, it is suppose to be

local Maps = mapsFolder:GetChildren()
#6

No, sire. This one: Weird movements with the crouch animations - #4

#7 
for i, v in pairs(ServerStorage.Maps:GetChildren()) do
    if v:IsA("Model") then
        table.insert(Maps, v.Name)
    end
end

He has this below, to ensure that it only puts the models inside Maps and not anything else.

  • Also it needs to be a list of strings by the looks of things.

Yeah your trying to FindFirstChild(obj Model), either change the way the loop works or stick to what you had before and debug your map gathering.

#10

why did alvin blox make things so hard, couldn’t he just have did

local  maps = mapsFolder:GetChildren()
local clonedMap = maps[math.random(1, #maps)]:Clone()
clonedMap.Parent = game.Workspace
