    print("Work5")
else
Part.Parent:breakJoints()
script.Parent.Denied:play()
end end end Debounce = false
Door.Touched:connect(Touched)

So what I am trying to do is make a new group only door, but this is the error I get. The parts that the player will get teleported are linked correctly. And what I mean by that is that they are in the right spot in the game explorer. The below answer did help but now a new error has arisen, sorry for the inconvenience and question asking. :( Any help is appreciated! :D

21:05:46.604 - GetRankInGroup is not a valid member of Model
21:05:46.606 - Script 'Workspace.Group Rank Only Door V1.5.1.Door.Group Rank Based', Line 29

The problem here is that anything that touches the door can trigger the script. Imagine if a random part in the workspace touched the door. The script would index "human" as the part's parent' Humanoid. Obviously a random part wouldn't have a Humanoid, so "human" is indexed as nil (does not exist). So when the script uses the human variable it can't function since human is nil! To fix this, use an if statement.

function Touched(Part)
    local Human = Part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if Human ~= nil then --If the humanoid exists then

Human.Parent is a character model in the Workspace. However, :GetRankInGroup() only works for the Player Instance under game.Players. So, perhaps something like this would work:

local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Human.Parent)
if plr:GetRankInGroup(GroupId) >= min and 
plr:GetRankInGroup(GroupId) <= max or
-- etc.

Notice how Human.Parent is replaced with plr, allowing you to get the player's rank in the group. Hope this helps :)
