Teleporter Breaks randomly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello Developers,

I have a problem with these Teleporter Scripts, which teleport the Player from Brick A to Brick B. They usually work but have like a 20% chance of breaking when touching. Here is the script, the Hitbox (around the Heart) and the Video where i tried teleporting but it broke…

local Teleport = “Telemsion Kampf 1 (3)” --Put the name of the Part between the ""s.
function Touch(hit) --Indicates that the Part has been Touched.
if script.Parent.Locked == false and script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked == false then script.Parent.Locked = true script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked = true --Checks Debounce.
local Pos = script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport) --Gets the Part to teleport to.
hit.Parent:moveTo(Pos.Position) wait(2) script.Parent.Locked = false script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked = false end end --Takes you there and Ends the Function.
script.Parent.Touched:connect(Touch) --Listens out for Touchers.

Like this ?

I fixed up the script a little. Here it is:

local Teleport = "Telemsion Kampf 1 (3)" --Put the name of the Part between the ""s.
local debounce = false
local TelePart = script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild(Teleport)

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part)
	if debounce == false then
		debounce = true
		local Character = nil									--._.- Sanity Check to see if Player hit button
		local Player = nil
		if part.Parent:IsA("Model") then
			Character = part.Parent
		elseif part.Parent.Parent:IsA("Model") then
			Character = part.Parent.Parent
		elseif part.Parent.Parent.Parent:IsA("Model") then
			Character = part.Parent.Parent.Parent
		end
		if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character) then
			Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character)
			Character:MoveTo(TelePart.Position)
		end
		wait(3) -- Delay of how long it takes to reactivate the teleporter.
		debounce = false
	end
end)

I think the problem you had was that you did not do sanity checks on if the teleported Object was an actual player.

Shouldn’t you move the player’s HumanoidRootPart instead of using :MoveTo()? That could be your error.

:MoveTo works fine. Maybe he wants to align the model on the highest spot in changing terrain as MoveTo is useful for this?

Thanks for the script. I will check it out later and will contact you if anything isnt working ^^

i think the problem is you trying to use locked as a debounce

local Teleport = “Telemsion Kampf 1 (3)” --Put the name of the Part between the ""s.

function Touch(hit) --Indicates that the Part has been Touched.

  if script.Parent.Locked == false and script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked == false then

    script.Parent.Locked = true 
  
    script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked = true --Checks Debounce.
 
    local Pos = script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport)--Gets the Part to teleport to.

    hit.Parent:moveTo(Pos.Position)

    wait(2)

    script.Parent.Locked = false

    script.Parent.Parent:findFirstChild(Teleport).Locked = false

  end

end --Takes you there and Ends the Function.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(Touch) --Listens out for Touchers.

also local script.Parent cuz it took me a bit to figure out what it is without that touch event

also im pretty sure this is enough

local part = script.Parent
local part2 = workspace.Part2

local debounce = false

part.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	
	if hit.Parent:IsA("Model") and not debounce then --checks if its a model and if debounce
		debounce = true
		local playerCharacter = hit.Parent
		playerCharacter:MoveTo(part2.Position)
		wait(2)
		debounce = false
	end
	
end)

also are you sure that part.locked is doing its job right?

part.locked is a property used to lock parts so you cant click on it in studio

it has no real debounce in real gameplay

below is what locked does just incase you didnt know

better safe than sorry

hope this devforum post helps you (its about debounce so if you already know it then you might not want to read it)
