SpawnLocations aren't random?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

I’m making a round-based system and I ran into a problem.

I have three SpawnLocations all connected to the same team, ‘Bright blue’.
I have a script that currently changes all of the players team to ‘Bright blue’ then respawns them using the LoadCharacter() function.

My problem is that after changing the team of the players and respawning them, they all will spawn on the same SpawnLocation when it should be random.

I won’t be providing any code as seeing I am not getting any errors and it’s pretty straight forward.

  1. Change Team
  2. LoadCharacter()
  3. All the players spawn on the same one.

As stated under the ‘Spawning Rules’ section on the SpawnLocations page.

If multiple eligible spawns are available to a Player, a random one will be chosen

I suggest making custom spawn locations.

Is this some sort of bug or something wrong on my end?

They aren’t behaving as they should. I don’t see the need to make my own custom spawn locations when it should be just as simple as this.

As far as I know, I believe this shouldn’t behave that way. If you’re not so sure, I suggest reading about Spawn Locations in Dev Wiki: SpawnLocation | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

I assume all the player’s are spawning at the exact same time. Your problem might possibly have to do with the fact that math.random isn’t truly random. Just as an experiment, try loading the different characters on intervals of 1 second, and see if that makes a difference.

Thank you! That worked.

I simply put wait(0.03) in the loop.
