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)
for n, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
local playerTable = {}
local n = 1
playerTable[n] = player
n = n + 1
end
if game.Players.NumPlayers == REQUIRED_PLAYERS then
for n = 1, 1 do
player:LoadCharacter()
player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position = game.Workspace.SpawnLocations[tostring(n)].Position
end
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:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local SpawnLocations = workspace.SpawnLocations
local i = 1
Players.CharacterAutoLoads = false
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
Player.RespawnLocation = SpawnLocations[i] -- Assign new Player to a Spawn
i = i + 1
Player:LoadCharacter()
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 — 7y

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 — 7y

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 — 7y
