My game teleporter crashes the Roblox client, Help?

Asked 535 views2 answers

I need help with my teleporter. Basically it was made so if a brick is touched a Popup GUI will appear and the player will switch games, but for some reason it crashes the client instead. Here the code

Teleporter

function onTouched(hit)
   local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
   if player then
		game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(5653600014,player) 
  end
end


script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

GUI

Sound = script.Parent.Scream
Popup = script.Parent.Popup
Ready = true
function onTouch(hit)
local h = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if h ~= nil and Ready == true then
Ready = false
local plyr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(h.Parent.Name)
local c = Popup:clone()
c.Parent = plyr.PlayerGui
script.Parent.Scream:play()
wait(222)
c:remove()
wait(1)
Ready = true
end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

I tried to combine them but still crashes the client. Here the link: https://www.roblox.com/games/5664353175/Teleporter-test

Combined script

function onTouched(hit)
   local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
   if player then
		game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(5653600014,player)  --replace the numbers with your place id
  end
end


script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

Sound = script.Parent.Scream2
Popup = script.Parent.Popup
Ready = true
function onTouch(hit)
	local h = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if h ~= nil and Ready == true then
		Ready = false
		local plyr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(h.Parent.Name)
		local c = Popup:clone()
		c.Parent = plyr.PlayerGui
		script.Parent.Scream2:play()
		wait(222)
		c:remove()
		wait(1)
		Ready = true
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

Shoot, I should've know from Scream:Play() that it wasn't going to be pleasant. Got me good lol. Sound was up and everything. However, can you please put the full "combined" script so it's easier to diagnose what the problem is?

I'm not sure the exact cause of it crashing the client, but I went ahead and cleaned it up and it seems to be working fine. I think it had something to do with either there being 2 touched events or the wait(222) paired with the deprecated remove(). Anyways, here's the script:

local sound = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Scream2");
local popup = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Popup");

local debounce = false;

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent);
	local h = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid");
	
	if player and h and not debounce then
		debounce = true;
			
		local c = popup:Clone();
		c.Parent = player.PlayerGui;
			
		sound:Play();
		
		game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(5626259107, player);
			
		--[[ There's no reason to wait() to remove the GUI since the player is being
			 redirected to the other game anyways. ]]--
			
		wait(200); --// However many seconds you want to wait until a player can touch the part again.
		
		debounce = false;
	end
end)

I would use a event in my way. If this script isn't what you want then R.I.P.

Script:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if plr then
		game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireClient(plr)
	end
end)

LocalScript:

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerClient:Connect(function()
	local TS = game:GetService("TeleportService")
	local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local ID = 5653600014
	TS:Teleport(ID, plr)
end)

Not the best here at scripting, but hope this is what you're looking for by the way nice game.
