Question
How do I make a player re spawn using
Player.Respawn?
Whats Wrong
Player.Respawn isn't a member of Player's at all.
Solution
If you want to make the character instantly respawn you can use the :LoadCharacter() method which instantly respawns a player at their spawn point.
More information on the function: https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/function/Player/LoadCharacter
The Catch
Unfortunately the :LoadCharacter() method cannot be called from the client and trying to do so will result in the error "LoadCharacter can only be called by the backend server"
How do you solve this? Well you can use a remote event which will require a RemoteEvent instance, a Server Script and a Local Script
More information on each listed here:
https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/class/LocalScript
https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/class/Script
https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/class/RemoteEvent
Example Code
Example Client Logic:
--// Client Side
local remote = ... --// Reference to the RemoteEvent
local button = ... --// Reference to the GuiButton
local function respawnPlayer()
remote:FireServer() --// Fires the remote event to tell the server you want to respawn
end
button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(respawnPlayer) --// Connect the MouseButton1Click event to the `respawnPlayer` function.
Example Server Logic:
--// Server Side
local remote = ... --// Reference to the RemoteEvent
local function respawnPlayer(player) --// the player who called the event is automatically passed
player:LoadCharacter() --// respawn the player
end
remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(respawnPlayer) --// Connect OnServerEvent event to the `respawnPlayer` function

lmao
if by respawn you mean dying, just add a local script inside of that button and then put this:
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
end)
also only the client will see this, if you want it to be seen by server, fire a remotevent.

It doesn't work because Player.Respawn doesn't exist
