SpawnLocation

Mostrar obsoleto

SpawnLocations, or "spawns" determine where a Player respawns when they die. They can be configured to allow only certain players to use each spawn, using Teams. They also control how ForceFields are set up for newly-spawned players.

SpawnLocations can be used as checkpoints, such as in an obstacle course, using the SpawnLocation.AllowTeamChangeOnTouch property, so that when a player touches it, they will change teams to the SpawnLocation's team. In this case, only the first Team should have Team.AutoAssignable set to true, else players will not start at the first checkpoint.

Note if a SpawnLocation is added to the Workspace in Studio with SpawnLocation.Neutral set to false a Team will be created corresponding to SpawnLocation.TeamColor if it does not already exist. This behavior does not occur when spawns are created in-game using a Script or if the properties of the SpawnLocation are changed after already being added. It is recommended that developers always set up their teams manually and not rely on this behavior.

Spawning Rules

There are several rules that come into play for a given SpawnLocation when a player respawns:

AllowTeamChangeOnTouch

Leer paralelo

Allows a Player to join the team by touching the SpawnLocation. When set to true, if a Player character comes into contact with the SpawnLocation, the player's Player.TeamColor will be set to SpawnLocation.TeamColor. Player.Neutral will also be set to SpawnLocation.Neutral upon contact, meaning a player can also become neutral by touching a spawn location.

This will not function when SpawnLocation.Enabled is set to false.

Making Checkpoints

This feature is often used to make checkpoints in obstacle courses or similar games.

Duration

Leer paralelo

The length of time, in seconds, that a ForceField will be applied to a Player character spawning at this SpawnLocation. If Duration is zero, the ForceField is never created, and it will not trigger the Instance.DescendantAdded or Instance.ChildAdded events.

This default value of this property is 10 seconds.

The duration feature allows developers to easily give Players protection from 'spawn killing' which can be a frustrating experience for players. Note, ForceFields will only protect users from Explosions and weapons that use Humanoid:TakeDamage() to deal damage or otherwise check for a ForceField.

SpawnLocation ForceField

local spawnLocation = Instance.new("SpawnLocation")
spawnLocation.Anchored = true
spawnLocation.Size = Vector3.new(5, 1, 5)
spawnLocation.Neutral = true -- anyone can spawn here
spawnLocation.Duration = 20
spawnLocation.Parent = workspace

Enabled

Leer paralelo

Sets whether or not the SpawnLocation is enabled. When disabled players cannot spawn at the SpawnLocation and the SpawnLocation.AllowTeamChangeOnTouch functionality is disabled.

This property provides the most convenient way of preventing Players from spawning at a spawn.

Note, although team changing on touch using SpawnLocation.AllowTeamChangeOnTouch is disabled when Enabled is set to false, other touched events using BasePart.Touched will still fire.

SpawnLocation Enabled

local spawnLocation = Instance.new("SpawnLocation")
spawnLocation.Anchored = true
spawnLocation.Size = Vector3.new(5, 1, 5)
spawnLocation.Neutral = true -- anyone can spawn here
spawnLocation.Enabled = true
spawnLocation.Parent = workspace
local function onEnabledChanged()
spawnLocation.Transparency = spawnLocation.Enabled and 0 or 0.5
end
spawnLocation:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Enabled"):Connect(onEnabledChanged)
task.wait(5)
spawnLocation.Enabled = false -- transparency = 0.5

Neutral

Leer paralelo

Whether or not a spawn is affiliated with a specific team. This means that any Player, of any Team, can spawn on it if this property is set to true.

If Neutral is set to false, only players whose Player.TeamColor is equal to SpawnLocation.TeamColor can use the SpawnLocation.

If SpawnLocation.AllowTeamChangeOnTouch is true Player.Neutral will be set to this property upon contact with the spawn.

TeamColor

Leer paralelo

The TeamColor property sets what team the SpawnLocation is affiliated to. If SpawnLocation.Neutral property is false, only Players with the same Player.TeamColor as the spawn's TeamColor will be able to spawn there.

If SpawnLocation.AllowTeamChangeOnTouch is true Player.Neutral will be set to this property upon contact with the spawn.
