How can I make a door that only opens when there is a certain amount of players in the server?
I am trying to make a door that opens once there is a certain amount of players in the server. I have a script but it works no matter how many players are in the server
Heres the script:
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 |
03 | if #Players:GetPlayers(2) then |
04 | local door = script.parent |
05 | do |
06 | wait (40) |
07 |
08 | door.CanCollide = false |
09 |
10 | door.Transparency = 1 |
11 | end |
12 | end |
This is a Script that is added into a part

Close but you should put anything in the brackets of line 3 because it will return a table and you should have the script listen for the number of players to change otherwise it will only read your code once...
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local door = script.parent |
03 |
04 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function() --everytime a player joins... |
05 | if #Players:GetPlayers() >= 2 and door.CanCollide == true then --if there are more than two players and the door isnt open, open the door |
06 | wait(40) |
07 | door.CanCollide = false |
08 | door.Transparency = 1 |
09 | end |
10 | end) |
If you're using this method it may also be useful to listen for players leaving...
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local door = script.parent |
03 |
04 | local function checkPlayers() --check if the door should be open and act upon it |
05 | if #Players:GetPlayers() >= 2 and door.CanCollide == true then --if there are more than two players and the door isnt open, open the door |
06 | wait(40) |
07 | door.CanCollide = false |
08 | door.Transparency = 1 |
09 | elseif #Players:GetPlayers() < 2 and door.CanCollide == false then --if there arent enough players and the door is open, close the door |
10 | door.CanCollide = true |
11 | door.Transparency = 0 |
12 | end |
13 | end |
14 |
15 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(checkPlayers) --everytime a player joins... |
16 | Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(checkPlayers) --everytime a player leaves... |
Hopefully this works...

Try this:
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local door = script.Parent |
03 |
04 | while true do |
05 | if #Players:GetPlayers() == 2 then |
06 | door.CanCollide = false |
07 | door.Transparency = 1 |
08 | end |
09 | wait(.01) |
10 | end |
We use a while loop so the number of players is always updated. If the number of players is 2, then the door will open. Otherwise, it will remain closed.
Remember to add a wait() when using while true loops, because this prevents the client from crashing.
When you use the :GetPlayers function, it returns a table, so there should be nothing in the brackets.

01 | local Players = 0 |
02 |
03 |
04 | game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function() |
05 |
06 | if Players >=2 then |
07 | script.Parent.Transparency = 1 |
08 | script.Parent.CanCollide = false |
09 | elseif Players <2 then |
10 | script.Parent.Transparency = 0 |
11 | script.Parent.CanCollide = true |
12 | end |
13 |
14 | end) |
