How to count how many players are on a team?
I am trying to count how many players are in a team, and then i'm going to put that amount of players in a number value in server storage. I'm using a script on a part only to test out if its working, but I don't think it is. Do you see any problems with it? (i'm a very beginner scripter)
this is the one i will use..
local players = game.Teams.Playing:GetPlayers() game.ServerStorage.PlayerCount.Value = #players
and this is the one I made just to test if its working.
while true do
if game.ServerStorage.PlayerCount.Value == 1
then
script.Parent.Transparency = .5
end
wait(.00001)
end
(also im using one player because when I test it in the studio, its just one player on the playing team, me) Thank you in advance!

Your code executes only once. You should update the value of the Number value whenever a player leaves/joins the Team. Here's how you'd do it
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local function UpdateValue()
ServerStorage.PlayerCount.Value = #Teams.Playing:GetPlayers()
end
Teams.Playing.PlayerAdded:Connect(UpdateValue)
Teams.Playing.PlayerRemoved:Connect(UpdateValue)
