Multiple teleport locations how to make every player go to a different location?
I have made it so i teleport a bunch of players to different locations, but sometimes they go to the same location. I want to assign every teleporting player a different location to teleport to all random. So if i have 8 players and 8 locations, every player has his own location. As if right now i can get random teleports but they can spawn on the same location. I have used the following code:
``
local lobbyLocation = game.Workspace.Lobby.Lobby.Position + Vector3.new(0,3,0)
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
local timeEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild('TimeEvent')
local function playGame()
local timeAmount = 20
local timerText = 'Remaining Time: '
while timeAmount > 0 do
timeEvent:FireAllClients(timeAmount, timerText)
wait(1)
timeAmount -= 1
end
end
local function playIntermission()
local intermission = 10
local timerText = 'Intermission: '
while intermission > 0 do
timeEvent:FireAllClients(intermission, timerText)
wait(1)
intermission -= 1
end
end
local function resetPlayers()
for _, plr in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(lobbyLocation)
end
end
local function teleportPlayers()
local plrs = game.Players:GetChildren()
for i = 1, #plrs do
local num = math.random(1,9)
plrs[i].Character.Head.CFrame =
CFrame.new(workspace.Teleports["Main"..num].Position)
end
end
while true do
resetPlayers()
playIntermission()
teleportPlayers()
playGame()
end

Ok, so the problem is that when you get a random value using math.random() it sometimes can repeat the same numbers.
So I made a script that allows you to get a random value without it repeating itself
Basically, it gets a random number, check if it exists in a table and if not it will return it and return true and put it in the table and if it exists in the table it will return nil and return false. With this you can use the repeat to loop it until it gets true.
local function GetRandomValue(min, max, tableList)
local number = math.random(min,max)
local success = true
for i, v in ipairs(tableList) do
if v == number then
success = false
end
end
if success then
table.insert(tableList, number)
return number, true
elseif not success then
return nil, false
end
end
local function teleportPlayers()
local plrs = game.Players:GetChildren()
local value = {}
for i = 1, #plrs do
local num, success
repeat
num, success = GetRandomValue(1, 9, value)
until success
plrs[i].Character.Head.CFrame =
CFrame.new(workspace.Teleports["Main"..num].Position)
end
end
I hope this helps.
