Teleport to other games only works in private servers

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a teleporter that teleports to another game, but for some reason it only works in private servers, I’ve checked the script, I am still learning Lua so maybe I missed something. Here’s the code:

local telePart = script.Parent

local TeleportService = game:GetService('TeleportService')

local placeID = 5641285560

local canTeleport = true

local function otherGame(otherPart)
	local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(otherPart.Parent.Name)
	if player and canTeleport then
		canTeleport = false
		TeleportService:Teleport(placeID, player)
	end
end

telePart.Touched:Connect(otherGame)

Thanks in advance.

You’ve got the main basics down, there is just a couple errors that I noticed in your script, try this:

local telePart = script.Parent
local TeleportService = game:GetService("TeleportService")
local placeID = 5641285560
local canTeleport = true

local function otherGame(otherPart)
    local hum = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)
    local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hum.Parent)
    if plr and canTeleport then
        canTeleport = false
        TeleportService:Teleport(placeID, plr)
        wait()
        canTeleport = true
    end
end)

telePart.Touched:Connect(otherGame)

That didn’t work, maybe because I have it in a server script in a part?

#4

You can’t get do GetPlayerFromCharacter(hum) with a humanoid. You need to use a Character in order to use this function. Try doing GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent) instead.

Made a little edit, see if it works now

#6

Still didn’t work, I am not testing it in the games main place, I’m testing it in a test place, but I don’t think that would change anything.

#7

You have to make sure that the starting place is public and you have to test it via roblox not studio

#8

I’m not testing in studio, I’m testing in a test place via roblox which isn’t the starter place and the starter place is public. The test place is also public.

I found a YouTube video on how to do this exact thing (How to Teleport Players to a Different Roblox Game - Roblox Studio Tutorial - YouTube), and it works now!
Thanks for all the help btw.
If anyone was wondering here’s the working script:

local telePart = script.Parent
local TeleportService = game:GetService('TeleportService')
local placeID = 5641285560
local canTeleport = true

local function otherGame(otherPart)
	local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(otherPart.Parent.Name)
	if player and canTeleport then
		canTeleport = false
		TeleportService:Teleport(placeID, player)
	end
end

telePart.Touched:Connect(otherGame)
