(dunno which category this goes in sorry)
Hey guys. So whenever I die in my game i almost always respawn at the wrong spawnpoint.
I’ve checked the spawn points and the teams and all of them match their TeamColor.
So why am I spawning at the wrong spawn locations?
have you tried unchecking “neutral”
I unchecked neutral on all of them and now i just spawn over the void. And If I uncheck netraul on all but 1 i just always spawn at that 1 spawn point no mater what team im on.
It’s likely that your character spawns before assiging you a team.
Show me your team assign script
Here is my TeamPlayer script. This runs after the loading screen has finished loading in my game.
local rep = game.ReplicatedStorage
rep.Events.TeamPlayer.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
if plr.JailSystem.isArrested.Value == true then
plr.Team = game.Teams.Jailed
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373)>= 253 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Chiefs of Staff"]
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34737726) >= 8 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Royal Military Police"]
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373) >= 16 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Headquarters"]
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373) >= 15 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["General Grade Officers"]
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373) >= 11 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Field Grade Officers"]
elseif plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373) >= 8 then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Junior Officers"]
elseif plr:IsInGroup(34737726) then
plr.Team = game.Teams["Royal Military Police"]
elseif plr:IsInGroup(34364980) then
plr.Team = game.Teams["15th Infantry Division"]
elseif plr:IsInGroup(34363373) then
plr.Team = game.Teams["British Army Personnel"]
end
end)
If thats what you were looking for. Lmk if thats not what you were looking for
i see you have a few groups;
consider using this function to speed up giving teams
local cache = {}
local function getPlayerRankInGroup(player:Player, group:number)
if not cache[player] then
cache[player] = {}
player.AncestryChanged:Once(function()
cache[player] = nil
end)
end
if cache[player][group] then
return cache[player][group]
end
cache[player][group] = player:GetRankInGroup(group)
return cache[player][group]
end
so instead of doing plr:GetRankInGroup(34363373) you do
getPlayerRankInGroup(plr, 34363373)
And about your problem:
I have a question as to why you use a remote event here? Shouldn’t this be a one time thing when the player joins the game?
Using a remote event cuz my loading screen is handled in a localscript so I am firing the remoteevent after the loading screen is done loading.
But I also have a seperate script that literally manually places the player at their correct spawn after joining which works fine but when they reset ingame they spawn at the wrong locations.
send me that script ill patch it up for ya
Nah i dont want that cuz I was working on it all day yesterday to make sure jailed people spawn in the jail.
But sure here it is:
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Events = ReplicatedStorage.Events
local SpawnPoints = workspace:WaitForChild("SpawnPoints")
-- Define the server event handler for spawning players
Events.SpawnPlayer.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local character = player.Character
local isArrested = player:WaitForChild("JailSystem").isArrested
local TimeLeft = player:WaitForChild("JailSystem").TimeLeft
-- Wait for the player's character to load
if not character or not character.Parent then
character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
end
-- Check the player's group rank
local groupId = 34363373 -- Replace with your group ID
local rank = player:GetRankInGroup(groupId)
-- Define spawn points based on rank conditions
if player.JailSystem.isArrested.Value == true then
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.JailSpawn.Position)
player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("TimeLeftArrested").Frame.Visible = true
for remainingTime = TimeLeft.Value,0 , -1 do
player.PlayerGui.TimeLeftArrested.Frame.TimeLeft.Text = "Time Left: "..remainingTime
wait(1)
end
isArrested.Value = false
TimeLeft.Value = 0
player:LoadCharacter()
elseif rank >= 200 then
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Headquarters.Position)
elseif rank >= 14 then
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Headquarters.Position)
elseif rank >= 8 then
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Officers.Position)
elseif player:IsInGroup(34364980) then -- Example of checking another group
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Infantry15.Position)
elseif player:IsInGroup(0000) then -- Replace with the group ID
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Armored6.Position)
else
-- Default spawn point or handling for players not in specified groups
character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Civilians.Position)
end
end)
and another place you can benefit from using the function i wrote earlier; actually best case is you put that function in a module.
Then uh, dont really know what you want anymore.
My spawn issue was never fixed. Like not on spawning, that works perfectly but after a player dies or resets. They spawn at the wrong spawnpoint, is it possible to make a script that like manually places them at their spawn point.
I tried doing this but it didnt seem to work.
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Events = ReplicatedStorage.Events
local SpawnPoints = workspace:WaitForChild("SpawnPoints")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local character = plr.Character
character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
wait(plr.CharacterAppearanceLoaded)
if plr.Team == game.Teams["15th Infantry Division"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Infantry15.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["British Army Personnel"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Infantry15.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Chiefs of Staff"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Headquarters.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Civilians"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Civilians.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Field Grade Officers"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Officers.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["General Grade Officers"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Headquarters.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Headquarters"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Headquarters.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Jailed"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.JailSpawn.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Junior Officers"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.Officers.Position)
elseif plr.Team == game.Teams["Royal Military Police"] then
plr.Character:MoveTo(SpawnPoints.RMPSpawn.Position)
end
end)
end)```instead of this
do
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
-- code here
end)
i suppose you only want this to run on your second character spawn;
do this instead
if not plr.Character then plr.CharacterAdded:Wait() end
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
-- code here
end)
This seems to work perfectly. Thank you!
