Whenever I run this script the output states: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value). The line it is having the error is the line that says: check:MoveTo(Spawns[1].Position). It doesn't seem to be recognizing "Spawns" as a variable. In the variables of Spawns and Spawnz the ElevatorSpawn and LobbySpawn are both models, each containing 10 parts inside of them.

Most likely Spawns[1] doesn't exist. Write print(Spawns[1]) on line 29. 1waffle1 2908 — 8y

1. 'Spawns' isn't define in this code.. 2. Is Spawns a :GetChildren() of a model? It's unclear in the way you said it TheDeadlyPanther 2460 — 8y

it looks like "ElevatorSpawn" maybe is empty, are you sure there is something in that model? cheatmaster18 155 — 8y
