I am working on one of those ‘line simulator’ games, and I have it working pretty well. However, the script that allows players to cut the line is encountering a lot of bugs, and I can’t seem to figure out how to fix it.
The script determines whether a spot is taken using two values:
Player - Object Value
Bot - Bool Value
If the spot contains a bot instead of a player, it sets Bot to true and Player to nil.
But when this glitch happens, some empty spaces either have Bot set to true, or the Player value is still set to the player.
As you can see, there are a lot of bugs. Players and bots are skipping multiple lines, the player is getting moved back many spots when it shouldn’t happen, and the player is overlapping with the same spots as other bots/players.
Here is the script:
local ss = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local ts = game:GetService("TweenService")
function updateBots()
print("Bots")
if #workspace.Bots:GetChildren() > 0 then
for _, bot in pairs(workspace.Bots:GetChildren()) do
local botSpot = bot.Spot
if workspace.Spots:FindFirstChild(botSpot.Value) then
local Spot = workspace.Spots[botSpot.Value]
if Spot.Player.Value ~= nil then
bot:Destroy()
end
end
end
else
for i = 1, #workspace.Spots:GetChildren() do
local newBot = ss.Bot:Clone()
local newBotSpot = newBot.Spot
local SSpot = workspace.Spots[i]
local botBool = SSpot.Bot
local playerObj = SSpot.Player
if playerObj.Value == nil then
botBool.Value = true
newBotSpot.Value = tonumber(SSpot.Name)
if SSpot then
newBot:PivotTo(SSpot.Pos.CFrame)
newBot.Parent = workspace.Bots
end
end
end
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local checkSpot = 1
local spot = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
spot.Name = "Spot"
for i = 1, #workspace.Spots:GetChildren() do
local Spot = workspace.Spots[i]
local botBool = Spot.Bot
local playerObj = Spot.Player
if playerObj.Value == nil then
playerObj.Value = player
botBool.Value = false
spot.Value = tonumber(Spot.Name)
break
end
end
for _, Spot in pairs(workspace.Spots:GetChildren()) do
local botBool = Spot.Bot
local playerObj = Spot.Player
if playerObj.Value == nil then
botBool.Value = true
end
end

end

end)

The script is large and it’s hard to find what the issue is. I think it’s a problem when the function is fired multiple times at the same time.
If anyone can help me out with these glitches, I’d really appreciate it!
