I’ve got a major issue with this spawn location code…

local Plots = game.Workspace.Plots

local Players = game:GetService('Players')
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
for _, plrplot in Plots:GetChildren() do
		if plrplot:GetAttribute('Taken') == true and plrplot:GetAttribute('Owner') == player.UserId then
			player.RespawnLocation = plrplot.SpawnLocation
		end
	end
end)

For some reason the game is spawning the player on the wrong platform even tho i have loop to check for each plot and its attributes that match then set the spawn location and when the player respawns, it changes the spawn location.
Please I need immediate help i cant figure out what i did wrong

Did you checked if you put all the spawn locations on the right position?

#5

yeah, all the spawns are inside the plots themselves

Weird, that’s very strange, try printing if he’s spawning in the right position, like, print where his x and y spawned, just for testing.

Try this script

local Plots = game.Workspace.Plots

local Players = game:GetService('Players')
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
for _, plrplot in Plots:GetChildren() do
      local SpecifcPlrPlot = plrplot
		if SpecifcPlrPlot:GetAttribute('Taken') == true and SpecifcPlrPlot:GetAttribute('Owner') == player.UserId then
			player.RespawnLocation = SpecifcPlrPlot.SpawnLocation
		end
	end
end)

i tried adding a print to see if it even detects the attributes, and it seems like it doesn’t

so, that explains it, for some reason it doesn’t even find the spawnlocation

#11

any clue on how i would be able to fix it? because it should stereotypically find it, it has all the checks it needs

Tbh, i’m not an expert on scripting but i’m gonna try

Can you show a bit of your explorer, like the attributes and other stuff?

#14

What’s the script that sets the attribute for Taken and Owner?

#15 

script:WaitForChild('CreatePlot').Event:Connect(function(Player, ItemIdsTable)
	for _, plot in Plots:GetChildren() do
		
		if plot:GetAttribute('Taken') then continue end
		plot:SetAttribute('Taken', true)
		plot:SetAttribute('Owner', Player.UserId)
		
		local ItemsFolder = Instance.new('Folder')
		ItemsFolder.Name = 'Items'
		ItemsFolder.Parent = plot

this is the code that assigns the attributes to the plot
image
and this is the explorer

they are made in 2 different scripts, but i believe they could be made in the same one

#16

Can’t you set the respawn location in the same script you set the userID (Owner attribute)?

Firstly don’t use pairs for itterating through a folder

local Plots = game.Workspace.Plots
local Players = game:GetService('Players')

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    for _, plrplot in Plots do
        local Plot = plrplot
        if plrplot:GetAttribute('Taken') == true and plrplot:GetAttribute('Owner') == player.UserId then
            player.RespawnLocation = plrplot.SpawnLocation.Position 
          print("RUN")
            break  -- Exit the loop once good plot found
        end
    end
end)
