for i,plr in pairs(plrs) do if plr.Character ~= nil then lastSpawnPointUsed = lastSpawnPointUsed + 1 plr.Character:MoveTo(Map.SpawnPoints:GetChildren()[lastSpawnPointUsed].Position) end end How would I make it more randomized?

Spawns = Map.SpawnPoints:GetChildren() plr.Characer:MoveTo(Spawns[math.random(1,#Spawns)].Position) -[::ƧѡÎḾḠΰῩ::]-[::Helper of Scripting and Writer of Wikis::]

I fixed your mistake and it still didn't work; they don't even go to the spawns.

Huh, weird. Try this Spawns = Map.SpawnPoints:GetChildren() for i,plr in pairs(plrs) do if plr.Character ~= nil then plr.Character:MoveTo(Spawns[math.random(1, #Spawns)].Position) end end -[::ƧѡÎḾḠΰῩ::]-[::Helper of Scripting and Writer of Wikis::]

It works; but now people spawn at the exact same one every time.

The General Idea Every time a script in a place uses the math.random function, the random generator generates a random number. However, the random number generator is deterministic. It uses the last random number to generate the next random number. When the scripts starts, the "first" random number is always the same. So every time the script is ran, the same random number sequence will be generated, as in the test at the top of this page. I hate the LGBT. Those laser guided battle tanks are just too damn powerful.

Spawns = Map.SpawnPoints:GetChildren() for i,plr in pairs(plrs) do coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function() if plr.Character ~= nil then plr.Character:MoveTo(Spawns[math.random(1, #Spawns)].Position) end end)) end siggys r stupid

I achieved randomness by using Spawns = Map.SpawnPoints:GetChildren() lastSpawnPointUsed = 0 for i,plr in pairs(plrs) do if plr.Character ~= nil then lastSpawnPointUsed = lastSpawnPointUsed + 1 plr.Character:MoveTo(Spawns[math.random(lastSpawnPointUsed, #Spawns)].Position) end end
