Tags Not Working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, I have a script that uses tags for the checkpoints it works when a part outside of the map folder is given the tag but in the map folder it doesnt work

local cs = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.FakeRespawnPlayer

local electricSound = script.ShockLoop

for _, part in cs:GetTagged("resetBrick") do
	part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			print("Damage hit")
			hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent):GetAttribute("CurrentCheckpoint")
		end
	end)
	
		local soundClone = electricSound:Clone()
		soundClone.Parent = part
		soundClone:Play()
		print("Playing Sound")
end

for _, part in cs:GetTagged("checkpoint") do
	part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			part.Color = Color3.new(0, 1, 0.333333)
				-- Saves a vector3 value
			game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent):SetAttribute("CurrentCheckpoint", part.Position)
			print("Checkpoint Saved")
		end
end)
end

Now its not doing anything i’ve tried doing print statements but its not printing anything also when I insert a part that and give it the tag it works as intended. Thanks for any help.

The tags are streaming in after your code runs. Make sure to also listen to CollectionService:GetInstanceAddedSignal

So should I wrap this whole code in that function? So when the instance is added it loops through the instances again?

		soundClone.Parent = part
		soundClone:Play()
		print("Playing Sound")
	end
end)
