What should I change to allow me to open and close this gate?

Asked by 10 years ago

Places that dont need changed are the gate.Position lines! I just want it to move when i say "Close Spawns"/"Open Spawns", but i only want rank 5 and higher in the group to be able to...and i don't want it to move if it is already closed/opened.

local gate = script.Parent

Game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
    if plr.Chatted == "Open Spawns" then
        if plr:GetRankInGroup(947529) >= 5 then
            if gate.Position == Vector3(-2.7, 10.19, -0.3)then
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)
            wait(.1)
            gate.Position = gate.Position + Vector3.new(0,.4,0)

Chatted is an event, and you have to :connect() a function to it, like you would with game.Players.PlayerAdded. An example:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    player.Chatted:connect(function(message)
        if message == 'hi' then
            print(player.Name .. ' says hi!')
        end
    end)
end)

Also, for the love of god, use a for loop.

for i=1, 30 do -- 30 was a guess.
    gate.Position = gate.Position - Vector3.new(0, 0.4, 0)
    wait(0.1)
end

Instead of adding numerous lines of code why not use a for statement to move the gates? Also try adding in a BoolValue. Add some code to when the gates opens/closes it sets to true/false. Then do an if statement to check the boolean. For the member of a certain rank and above I'm not sure on that, sorry. :(

Best of luck!
