Issue with reloading the car after a threshold is reached

[thick sphinx]

hello I am new to Roblox scripting, and I need help on this issue. I am trying to achieve making a car destroy after when it flips upside down, I managed to do that sucessfully. But when I walk into the rangePart, which is used for spawning the car when the player gets within a certain range, It doesn't want to respawn again.

NOTE: I spawned the car upside down on purpose for debugging purposes, and i also have all the boolean variables printed for debugging purposes. I really need help, thank you.

get rid of this bit and do something like
newCar.PrimaryPart = newCar:WaitForChild("Chassis")
so the primary part it's using is inside the copied car

ok let me see

@viscid nebula i changed it in the touched method

like this

??

[viscid nebula]

you dont need to do 'primary part =' cause youve already set it. also make sure your parenting it first before setting the primary part @thick sphinx

also dont have the primary part set outside the functions remove the entire local primary part line at the top

parenting what

[narrow estuary]

oh

hey

whats the problem

[thick sphinx]

ok so basically

as you can see here this code is supposed to spawn a car once the player walks into a rangePart, the first iteration it works then when the car is destroyed and i try to spawn it again for some wierd reason it doesn't

[narrow estuary]

okay

look at the attachments to get a better idea of what is going on

[narrow estuary]

sure

i think i have an idea

your cardestroyed

is set to true

but carspawned is never set to false again until another attempt

So the check in the Touched event handler never passes

if timeFlipped >= TIME_TO_DESTROY then
car:Destroy()
carDestroyed = true
carSpawned = false - try adding this
print("RunService: ", "CarDestroyed ",carDestroyed,", CarSpawned ",carSpawned )

[thick sphinx]

all the booleans are set to the correct values before spawning another car, I know this because whenever i walk into the rangePart the second time through I print the boolean values, and they pass the if statement

[narrow estuary]

oh

in that case

have u checked if ur cloning from ReplicatedStorage.car?

or maybe MoveTo maybe silently falls
newCar:MoveTo(part.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position + Vector3.new(0, 0, 0))

[thick sphinx]

I am because as you can see the instance variable at the top is referencing the car in replicatedstorage, I am always cloning the car from the replicated storge

[thick sphinx]

Im thinking the issue has something to do with that

[narrow estuary]

well

if ur cloning from replicated storage

are u sure the car's PrimaryPart is not set before MoveTo

or RunService re-check destroys new car instantly

ORRR hear me out Car is destroyed before it becomes visible

[thick sphinx]

ohh ok

let me check

@narrow estuary can i add you to the game so u can help
