Help with spawning in the correct sequence?
I have 15 spawns in my game, each named "1" through "15", respectively, stored in a Folders object named SpawnLocations.
This is the corresponding code:
local REQUIRED_PLAYERS = 1
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
01 | for n, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do |
02 | local playerTable = {} |
03 | local n = 1 |
04 |
05 | playerTable[n] = player |
06 | n = n + 1 |
07 | end |
08 |
09 | if game.Players.NumPlayers == REQUIRED_PLAYERS then |
10 | for n = 1, 1 do |
11 | player:LoadCharacter() |
12 | player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position = game.Workspace.SpawnLocations[tostring(n)].Position |
13 | end |
14 | end |
end)
The problem that arises, is that when I go to test this via server, the player joins, but spawns at spawn #6, instead of spawn #1. Also, his head falls off.
I am unsure where the code in incorrect, but I'm willing to hear all suggestions.

You didn't describe exactly what the code is supposed to do, so I made a guess:
01 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
02 | local SpawnLocations = workspace.SpawnLocations |
03 | local i = 1 |
04 |
05 | Players.CharacterAutoLoads = false |
06 |
07 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) |
08 | Player.RespawnLocation = SpawnLocations[i] -- Assign new Player to a Spawn |
09 | i = i + 1 |
10 | Player:LoadCharacter() |
11 | end) |

Thank you for this answer. Works as I wanted it to. I must have overthought the spawning process, you made it look so simple. Thanks again. waifuSZN 123 — 8y

Yup! No problem. Roblox has a lot of things built-in to make life easier! And for things that aren't built-in, I've written some modules for those. Let me know if you need any more help! Add me on Discord: Niles#8328 Validark 1580 — 8y

You also might want to make an adaptive system that accounts for when players leave the game, and a new one takes their place. The simple version I wrote for you only accounts for players entering and staying in the game. Send me your finalized code when you've completed it! Validark 1580 — 8y
