How do I teleport a player to a position after they have clicked a gui textbutton? It is for a "job"

Asked by

I have tried different ways. This is the most recent:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer 
local endingPos = Vector3.new(-17.93, .5, 360.89)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(teleport)


local inJobspot = false

function teleport(par1)
    if not inJobspot then

        par1.Character:MoveTo(endingPos)
        inJobspot = true 
end
    end
    end)

What about it doesn't work? Also, post all your attempts hiimgoodpack 2009 — 4y

Two things: You should indent better, that should help with readability. Also, you should define another function outside of the function, preferably with another name. User#30567 0 — 4y

This is actually a pretty simple answer. I'm not sure if yours works, because I did not check but this one works, and I'm sure it will for you too. But make sure that this code is in a LOCAL SCRIPT.

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer --// Gets the local player.
local char = plr.Character or workspace.ChildAdded:Wait() --// Gets the player's character.
local endingpos = Vector3.new(0,15,0) --// The position you want.

function teleport() --// Making a function.
    char:MoveTo(endingpos) --// Moving the player to the ending position
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(teleport) --// Calling the teleport function by clicking script.Parent

Like you did in your script you added 'teleport' to your clicking function, that teleport would be the player and what you did was you made the player a function Gingerely 245 — 4y

Try the following. I haven't yet tried it.

local player = game.Workspace.Player -- This is a current player, so I assume this should be put into a localscript
local endPos = Vector3.new(-17.93, .5, 360.89) -- The end location

function teleport() -- Define function
    player.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = endPos
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(teleport())

I wouldn't call "teleport" like a function on line 8 if you're just connecting it to an event. It should through an error. CeramicTile 847 — 4y
