StartVotingEvent.Event:Connect(GetRandomMaps)

I’m trying to make a Voting System, but when StartVotingEvent gets Fired it doesn’t output any errors into output, but it doesn’t work either.

I’m trying to make it so that the table gets removed after changing MapText so that there wouldn’t be any duplicates.

Any help would be appreciated!

#2 
for i = 1,4 do task.wait()
local RandomMap = AvailableMaps[math.random(#AvailableMaps)]

if not table.find(SelectedMaps, RandomMap) then

   table.insert(SelectedMaps, RandomMap)
   table.remove(AvailableMaps, table.find(RandomMap))
end
end
#3

How would I put the RandomMap on to MapText?

#4 

WhateverItem[MapText..i].Text = tostring(RandomMap) -- something like this
#5 
function GetRandomMaps()
	
	local AvailableMaps = table.clone(Maps)
	local SelectedMaps = {}
	
	for i = 1, 3 do task.wait()
		local RandomMap = AvailableMaps[math.random(#AvailableMaps)]

		if not table.find(SelectedMaps, RandomMap) then
			
			table.insert(SelectedMaps, RandomMap)
			table.remove(AvailableMaps, RandomMap) -- I removed table.find() because it expected table, and got string
			
			if i == 1 then
				MapText1.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			elseif i == 2 then
				MapText2.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			elseif i == 3 then
				MapText3.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			end
		end
	end
end

This is what I did, but again, no errors in output but it also doesn’t work.

Before I look further into the problem of your script. Have you tried making prints through the whole function? Where does the prints stop?

#7 
function GetRandomMaps()
	
	local AvailableMaps = table.clone(Maps)
	local SelectedMaps = {}
	
	for i = 1, 3 do task.wait()
		local RandomMap = AvailableMaps[math.random(#AvailableMaps)]

		if not table.find(SelectedMaps, RandomMap) then
			
			table.insert(SelectedMaps, RandomMap)
			table.remove(AvailableMaps, RandomMap) -- OutPut: 'remove' (number expected, got string) 
			
			if i == 1 then -- Doesn't print the 'if' statements
				MapText1.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			elseif i == 2 then
				MapText2.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			elseif i == 3 then
				MapText3.Text = tostring(RandomMap)
			end
		end
	end
end

Can’t really test prints when there is an error, but before the error occured, the print after the if statements didn’t get printed.
