How to teleport players to their cars?

Hi! I wanted to make a race game but I don't know how to teleport players to their cars. Here's my local script located in starter player scripts(SPS) :

01local car1 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F1"].DriveSeat
02local car2 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F2"].DriveSeat
03local car3 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F3"].DriveSeat
04local car4 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F4"].DriveSeat
05local car5 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F5"].DriveSeat
06local car6 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F6"].DriveSeat
07local car7 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F7"].DriveSeat
08local car8 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F8"].DriveSeat
09 
10local playerModel = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
11local humanoid = playerModel:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
12        if car1.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
13            print("car1")
14            car1.Value = true
15            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car1.Parent.CFrame 
16        end
17 
18        if car2.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
19            print("car2")
20            car2.Value = true
21            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car2.Parent.CFrame 
22        end
23        if car3.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
24            print("car3")
25            car3.Value = true
26            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car3.Parent.CFrame 
27        end
28        if car4.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
29            print("car4")
30            car4.Value = true
31            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car4.Parent.CFrame 
32        end
33        if car5.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
34            print("car5")
35            car5.Value = true
36            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car5.Parent.CFrame 
37        end
38        if car6.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
39            print("car6")
40            car6.Value = true
41            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car6.Parent.CFrame 
42        end
43        if car7.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
44            print("car7")
45            car7.Value = true
46            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car7.Parent.CFrame 
47        end
48        if car8.Occupant == nil and not humanoid.Seated then
49            print("car8")
50            car8.Value = true
51            game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car8.Parent.CFrame 
52        end

the problem is that nothing works at all. (nothing prints or teleports) I thought the best way would be to check that the player is sitting and that the seat it is sitting on is occupied. Thanks for every answer :)

The problem is that it's in a local script. Ieowyyn 69 — 4y

The problem is that it's in a local script. If you want to get a player in a server script, use PlayerAdded and CharacterAdded. Also, there's a much easier way instead of constantly clone and edit the numbers of each statement.

01local car1 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F1"].DriveSeat
02local car2 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F2"].DriveSeat
03local car3 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F3"].DriveSeat
04local car4 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F4"].DriveSeat
05local car5 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F5"].DriveSeat
06local car6 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F6"].DriveSeat
07local car7 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F7"].DriveSeat
08local car8 = workspace.minigames.carrace.cars["Formula F8"].DriveSeat
09 
10local cars = {car1,car2,car3,car4,car5,car6,car7,car8}
11 
12game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) -- once a player joins, the script starts and creates the "player" variable
13    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character) -- then when the character is added, it creates another variable
14        for _,car in pairs(cars) do -- start the loop
15            if car.Occupant == nil and not character.Humanoid.Seated then
16                print(car)
17                car.Value = true
18                character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = car.Parent.CFrame
19            end
20        end
21    end)
22end)
