I am having a problem with my checkpoint script for my obby that i am working on. How to fix this?
I am having a problem with my checkpoint script. As my title said. I am trying to make my obby so when a player touches a checkpoint it dissapears. But when i test the game with 2 players when the first one touches the checkpoint for the other one it is invisible and the checkpoint stops working for the first one. What i want to do is for each player to have their own script. I am new to scripting lua c on roblox.
Here is my script:
01 | local StageValue = 0 |
02 | local debounce1 = false |
03 | local Touched1 = false |
04 |
05 | workspace.Stages.Stage1.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
06 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") and not debounce1 and not Touched1 then |
07 | Touched1 = true |
08 | StageValue = StageValue + 1 |
09 |
10 | if StageValue == 1 then |
11 | print("StageValue is now 1") |
12 | workspace.Stages.Stage1.CanCollide = false |
13 | workspace.Stages.Stage1.Transparency = 1 |
14 | workspace.Stages.Stage1.Sparkles.Enabled = false |
15 | local debounce1 = true |
16 | end |
17 | end |
18 | end) |
This is all in a script not a local script and the script is located in the workspace.

Local programs operate on the Client machine, whilst Server (regular) Scripts run on the ROBLOX Server. The Server, as all Servers, manage all Clients, meaning any action performed through a ServerScript will occur for everyone. Use a LocalScript to solve this issue. Ziffixture 6913 — 4y

EDIT: You can make anything happen in the two functions below, I just update a stage value.
I did this by naming each checkpoint whatever the stage is. For instance, stage 1 is 1, stage 2 is 2, etc. I then tag all of the checkpoints as "Checkpoint" using the tag editor plugin. (A folder would also work, with some minor edits to the code.) Then the server code becomes:
01 | local function checkpoint(Hit, Part) |
02 | if Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent) then |
03 | local stageNumber = Part.Parent.Name |
04 | local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent) |
05 | player.leaderstats:WaitForChild("Stage").Value = stageNumber |
06 | end |
07 | end |
08 |
09 | for _, Part in pairs(CS:GetTagged("Checkpoint")) do --If using a folder, do `folder:GetChildren` |
10 | Part.Touched:Connect(function(Hit) |
11 | checkpoint(Hit, Part) |
12 | end) |
13 | end |
14 |
15 | CS:GetInstanceAddedSignal("Checkpoint"):Connect(function(Part) --If using a folder, do `folder.ChildAdded` |
16 | Part.Touched:Connect(function(Hit) |
17 | checkpoint(Hit, Part) |
18 | end) |
19 | end) |

lets say i want to move an part called Stage1 located in a folder called Stages. Where would i put that part of the script? JOZOUMRO11 34 — 4y

Well, this is general, not part specific. You could put, inside the function, if stage.Name == "1" then yada yada yada NickIsANuke 217 — 4y

Hi Jozou,
If you want this all to be managed for each client, then you need to use a local script and use FilteringEnabled. Use LocalPlayer instead. I would keep the Touched function in the server, and when the part is touched it sends a signal to the local script to fire and change that part's transparency. You would use RemoteEvents to send signals back and forth between the client and server, and you'd need to place this RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage, since that place is accessible by both client and server. It would look something like this:
Local Script:
1 | local players = game:GetService("Players") |
2 | local player = players.LocalPlayer |
3 | local re = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("RemoteEvent") |
4 |
5 | re.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(part) |
6 | part.Transparency = 1 |
7 | end) |
Server Script
01 | local part = script.Parent |
02 | local re = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("RemoteEvent") |
03 | local players = game:GetService("Players") |
04 | local deb = false |
05 |
06 | part.Touched:Connect(function(hit) |
07 | local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") |
08 | local plr = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
09 | if not deb and hum and plr then |
10 | re:FireClient(plr, part) |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
Go here to find out more about FilteringEnabled.
Go here to find out more about LocalScripts.
Go here to find out more about RemoteEvents.
Thanks,

When i use this i get: Infinite yield possible on 'ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")' JOZOUMRO11 34 — 4y

And i get this too: ScriptNavigationHandler : No script currently available. JOZOUMRO11 34 — 4y

That is because RemoteEvent is not in the correct location. I am not sure about the ScriptNavigationHandler. I don't think that has anything to do with your own script. IdealistDeveloper 234 — 4y
