Script that's supposed to seat players puts multiple people in one seat?

Asked by

The below script is intended to put players in a seat if it is not already occupied. I have boolValues inside their corresponding parts, however when I try to test this it teleports me and someone else to seat1. Please help!

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
    --Makes it so the player can't reset once boarded
    local function noRset()
            noReset = game.Workspace.NoReset:Clone()
            noReset.Parent = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
    end
    print("hi")
    if game.Workspace.seat1.Occupied.Value == false then
        player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(1.3, 0.5, 9.4))
        noRset()
        game.Workspace.seat1.Occupied.Value = true
    elseif game.Workspace.seat2.Occupied.Value == false then
        player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(8.4, 0.5, 9.8))
        noRset()
        game.Workspace.seat2.Occupied.Value = true
    elseif game.Workspace.seat3.Occupied.Value == false then
        player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-23, 0.5, 7.4))
        noRset()
        game.Workspace.seat3.Occupied.Value = true
    elseif game.Workspace.seat4.Occupied.Value == false then
        player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-11.1, 0.5, 8.6))
        noRset()
        game.Workspace.seat4.Occupied.Value = true
    end
end)

well, you doing it in a LocalScritpt, therefore, the seat.Occupied property only changes on one player's screen, but not other players. you would need to use remote events to update the seat.Occupied

ex: **step 1: put remote event somewhere in replicated storage

step 2: put a server script somewhere in ServerScriptService

step 3: put a LocalScript somewhere, where it will be cloned to be a descendant of player object**

In Server Script

local updateValueRE = game.ReplicatedStorage.UpdateValueRemoteEvent
local seats = {}
local seat_value = 1

while true do
    local seat = workspace[tostring("seat"..seat_value)]
    if not seat then
        break
    end
    seat_value = seat_value+1

    if seat.Classname:lower() == "seat" then
        table.insert(seats,#seats+1,seat)
    end
    wait(0.1)
end

updateValueRE.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    local character = player.Character

    if not character then
        return 0;
    end

    for _, seat in pairs(seats) do
        if not  seat.Occupant then
            Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame = seat.CFrame
        end
    end
end)

**in local script ** make sure the script is paranted to the pressable GUI: AKA a button

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    local updateValueRE = game.ReplicatedStorage.UpdateValueRemoteEvent
    updateValueRE:FireServer()
end)

Now this is just an example, but you can do it differently

okay i saw that the above person mentioned an "occupant" property that i didn't notice so i incorporated that into my script by adding an "and not game.Workspace.seat1.Occupant" after the boolValue check. thanks !!
