What can I use instead of player.Team?
I made a code which would teleport the players in their respective spawns (which are just parts with the SpawnLocation decal to decrease suspicion) when the round starts and the code looks like this:
local function TeleportAPlayer(player)
if player.Team == "Red Team" then
game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(61, 1, -11078))
end
if player.Team == "Green Team" then
game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-61, 1, -11077))
end
if player.Team == "Blue Team" then
game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(61, 1, -11199))
end
if player.Team == "Yellow Team" then
game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-61, 1, -11199))
end
end
What can I use instead of player.Team (because it is only a server-side script)?

"What can I use instead of player.Team (because it is only a server-side script)?" You are using LocalPlayer which is only usable in a local script (as there will only ever be one local player).
You can simplifly this code a lot by using a table to store the key and value. The index the table using the key to get the CFrame value.
When creating a CFrame with just the x,y,z you do not need to create a Vector3 as there is a constructor for CFrame.new(x,y,z).
Example
local spawns = {
["Red Team"] = CFrame.new(61, 1, -11078),
-- ect....
}
print(spawns["Red Team"])
The second issue would be down to using player.Team == "Yellow Team" player.Team is the Team instance and will not be true in any case ie instance == string. To resolve this use the Name of the team or the BrickColor.
Example
local spawns = {
["Red Team"] = CFrame.new(61, 1, -11078),
-- ect....
}
local function TeleportAPlayer(player)
-- you should include the correct validation before running the code
-- ie does the player have a character, humanoid root part and a team that is in the list
player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = spawns[player.Team.Name]
end
I hope this helps. please comment if you have any other questions.

Since this is all server-side, you could call the player from the PlayerAdded Event of the Service Players and continue to use the player.Team
You also don't require all of the the separate if-then statements (use elseif)
If you change the team color from some neutral color, you can use the :GetPropertyChangedSignal() Event to check the player's team and then spawn them
Also, use "SetPrimaryPartCFrame()" since calling the HumanoidRootPart specifically may only move the RootPart and not the whole Character in some instances.
Server Script
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Team"):Connect(function()
if player.Team.Name == "Red Team" then
player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(61, 1, -11078)))
elseif player.Team.Name == "Green Team" then
player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(-61, 1, -11077)))
elseif player.Team.Name == "Blue Team" then
player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(61, 1, -11199)))
elseif player.Team.Name == "Yellow Team" then
player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(-61, 1, -11199)))
end
end)
end)
Another option instead of using the CFrame of the part, is to simply use the :LoadCharacter() Function of a Player, but only if the "Part with a SpawnDecal" is an actual Spawn
LoadCharacter Example
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Team"):Connect(function()
player:LoadCharacter()
end)
end)
In order to use: :GetPropertyChangedSignal("Team") you will need to make sure to change the player's Team via another function.
Edit: Use "player.Team.Name" instead of "player.Team"
