I have a function definition called run() at line 174. It continues running in a endless loop. I do not know what this error means, I have never had it before. I do not want to post a whole block of code if it won't help. I looked this error up but I did not find anything.
Can someone tell me what's causing this(I will post the code if need be)?
Error:
Workspace.Main: 174: Game script timeout |

function run()
while true do

if (sets[chosenSet]) then

You should take the loop out and do this instead
while wait() do
run()
end |
|
|
*
Make sure to remove award and intermission from run()
while wait() do
run()
award(playing)
intermission()
end |

Didn't work. |
|
|
Is this ever true?
if (sets[chosenSet]) then |
|
|
Trying to figure out why the script isn't waiting |
|
|
|
You have an infinite loop somewhere |

sets[chosenSet] returns true because it exists.
The only loop that runs forever is in run() |
|
|
When do you get the error?
Does the game at least start? |

I get the error once the server loads(AKA. When I join the game). The game doesn't start because it errors where I call it. |
|
|
That happens because there aren't any players when the server starts and all the waits are located in the player loop
That means my script works but you didn't use it :( |
|
|
Or before calling run
repeat wait(.1) until #game.Players:GetPlayers() > 0 |

I tried your methods and I added a function to wait for players, I still get the error. |

function run()
local currentSet = {};

wait(4)
for i = 5, 0, -1 do gui.Frame1.TextBox.Text = "Beginning in "..i.." seconds." end
chooseSet()
gui.Frame1.TextBox.Text = chosenSet.." set selected!"
local index;
index, currentSet = chooseQuestions(currentSet)
print("Got "..#currentSet.." questions in current set "..chosenSet)
teleportPlayer(player, -9.3, 54.99, -461.5)
for i, v in pairs(out) do if (v:lower() == player.Name:lower()) then table.remove(out, i)end end
table.insert(playing, player.Name)

while wait() do
repeat wait(.1) until #game.Players:GetPlayers() > 0
run()
