Zombie Spawners not working?

Asked 417 views2 answers

I have a folder " Spawners" in the workspace with multiple parts called "1", "2".., but it does not work with the script below. It said "Workspace.Spawners.Script:6: attempt to index number with 'Value'.

local Spawners = script.Parent:GetChildren()
 local Zombie = game.ReplicatedStorage["Zombie"]
  while true do
 local SpawnChosen = math.random(1,#Spawners)
 for i, v in pairs(Spawners) do
 if v.Name == SpawnChosen.Value then
 local Clone = Zombie:Clone()
 Zombie.UpperTorso.CFrame = v.CFrame
 end
 end
 wait(1)
 end

Zombie.UpperTorso.CFrame = v.CFrame -- I put parts in the workspace. So , is it gonna teleport clone to where parts are

try the new code i posted :) i think the problem was that 'v' and 'SpawnChosen' were different variables and so you cant compare them so i just inverted both of them to strings before comparing hope i helped! tell me if it works.

EDIT: try this, it works for me, for this to work you have to group the spawners together and put the zombie model inside ServerStorage :

local Spawners = game.Workspace.Spawners:GetChildren()--Change '.Spawners.' to whatever your model with your spawners inside is called
local Zombie = game.ServerStorage.Zombie
while true do
	local SpawnChosen = math.random(1,#Spawners)
	for i, v in pairs(Spawners) do
		print (i)
		if tostring(v) == tostring(SpawnChosen) then
			local Clone = Zombie:Clone()
			Clone.Parent=game.Workspace
			Clone.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = v.CFrame
		end
	end
 	wait(1)
end

The problem was that 'v' and 'SpawnChosen' were different variables and so you cant compare them so i just inverted both of them to strings before comparing .
Also you need to move the Clone not the zombie and I believe its better to do instead of UpperTorso.CFrame = v.CFrame , HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.... in case you have a zombie that is R15 since HumanoidRootPart works for both r15 and r6 characters while uppertorso only works for r6

while true do
local Spawners = script.Parent:GetChildren()
 local Zombie = game.ReplicatedStorage.Zombie:Clone() --Clones The Zombie
 local SpawnChosen = math.random(1,#Spawners)
Zombie.Parent = workspace --Spawns It In
Zombie:moveTo(SpawnChosen.Position) --Moves It To The Chosen Spawner
 wait(1)
end
