Why does my character not get spawned in the right place?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

My character for some reason isn’t spawning in the right location. Im not sure why though

	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		local checkpoint = workspace.Checkpoints:FindFirstChild(stage.Value, true)
		print(checkpoint.Name)
		if checkpoint ~= nil then
			character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = checkpoint.CFrame
			print("Done")
		end
	end)

Kinda stupid question, but, you’re calling an undefined value at line 1(which is player)
Have you defined it before the script chunk?

#3

sorry didn’t show the full thing

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

	local stage = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
	stage.Name = "Stage"
	stage.Value = 0

	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		local checkpoint = workspace.Checkpoints:FindFirstChild(stage.Value, true)
		print(checkpoint.Name)
		if checkpoint ~= nil then
			character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(checkpoint.CFrame)
			print("Done")
		end
	end)
end)

I changed it a bit but it still didn’t work in that chunk

#5

Just asking before posting, do you want it to be like this:

  1. Player touches spawnlocation
  2. The player will always spawn at the touched spawn

or

  1. Player joins the game
  2. A spawn gets reserved
  3. No one rather than that exact player can spawn on that spawn
#6

i want it so any player can spawn on that spawn when they spawn in the game

#7

If i understood correctly, you meant:

  1. Player joins the game
  2. Player spawns on that one spawn
  3. Another player joins the game
  4. Another player spawn on that one spawn again

yes you are correct

#9

If you actually mean it, insert a SpawnLocation wherever you want.

Also, delete the following code chunk in your script so it wont run any errors:

	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		local checkpoint = workspace.Checkpoints:FindFirstChild(stage.Value, true)
		print(checkpoint.Name)
		if checkpoint ~= nil then
			character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(checkpoint.CFrame)
			print("Done")
		end
	end)
