Why this script works in studio and doesn't work in-game? [Title is specific]

Asked 289 views1 answers

Hello, So I'm trying to make a server selection GUI and I have a GUI of teleportation. If I play in studio it works fine, If I play in-game it doesn't work, It doesn't teleport and the GUI doesn't go away. I don't have any errors on both platforms.

This is the script I'm using:

script.Parent.Changed:Connect(function()
	if script.Parent.Visible == true and script.Parent.Position == UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, -3) then
		wait(1) -- TweenPosition delay
		
		wait(0.3)
		
		script.Parent.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(150, 150, 150)
		
		local ServerName
		
		local function FindServer()
			for i, v in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.CurrentServers:GetChildren()) do
				if v:FindFirstChild("ServerSelected") then
					if v:FindFirstChild("ServerSelected").Value == true then
						ServerName = v.Name
						v:FindFirstChild("ServerSelected").Value = false
					end
				end
			end
		end
		
		FindServer()
		
		if ServerName == "Server1" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-39.109, 0, 104.624) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server2" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-68.079, 0, 133.366) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server3" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-12.131, 0., 104.608) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server4" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-67.991, 0, 104.952) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server5" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-39.931, 0, 133.366) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server6" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-13.286, 0, 133.366) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server7" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-68.079, 0, 160.401) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server8" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-39.676, 0, 160.401) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server9" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-13.541, 0, 160.401) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		elseif ServerName == "Server10" then
			script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-13.541, 0, 186.562) + Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
		end
		
		script.Parent:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(2, 0, 0, -3), "Out", "Quad")
		
		wait(1) -- TweenPosition delay
		
		script.Parent.Visible = false
	end
end)

I would really appreciate it if you will help me with my problem, Plus I'll accept your answer.

Thanks, MajinBluee

I added [Title is specific] so it doesn't annoy me.

Can you fix the script blocks first? Remember that you can use 'Preview'. Also make sure the code is UNDER the ~~~~ and ABOVE the other ~~~~. Don't put the code after the ~~~~.

Oh, Didn't see that.

Is the game FE?

If you want your button to teleport a player in a FE game you must use separately a LocalScript to handle the button pressing and a server-sided Script to handle the teleporting. In order to make those two scripts talk to each other you need Remote Events. In the LocalScript you need to describe what happens when your button is pressed. We want it to teleport the player, but LocalScripts aren't allowed to do that. And that's where Remote Events come in. You need to fire it.

The LocalScript would look like this:

Button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
	RemoteEvent:FireServer()
end)

But wait! You have multiple places to teleport to. You could use multiple events, but it's better if you just say where to teleport to in the brackets of :FireServer.

Button1.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
	RemoteEvent:FireServer(1)
end)
Button2.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
	RemoteEvent:FireServer(2)
end)

Now in the Script you need to describe what happens when the Remote Event is fired:

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, place) -- the plr stands for the player that fired the event and the place is the number sent with the event (you can name it anything else)
	if place == 1 then
		plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-- coordinates)
	elseif place == 2 then
		plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(-- other coordinates)
	-- etc.
	end
end)

And there you have it. This should work. Hope I helped
