Error: Workspace.GameManager.Findwinner:6: attempt to concatenate nil with string
Code:
while true do
wait()
local alive = game.Teams.Survivors:GetPlayers()
if script.Parent.PlayersLeft.Value == 1 then
local name = alive.Name
script.Parent.GameStatus.Value = name .. "won the game!"
end
end
You're getting a table, and trying to see the name of it.
while true do
wait()
local alive = game.Teams.Survivors:GetPlayers()
if script.Parent.PlayersLeft.Value == 1 then
local name = alive[1].Name
script.Parent.GameStatus.Value = name .. "won the game!"
end
end
I'm pretty sure this is the solution.
another error: Workspace.GameManager.Findwinner:5: attempt to index nil with 'Name'
Change :GetPlayers() to :GetChildren()
Its the same error.
Hmm.. Is it a localscript or a server script?
server
I did a test to print the alive variable and got something completely unexpected " table: 0x5a1815269514e5c4" the end random number was completely different each time.
I FIXED IT, CHECK MY ANSWER!!! WOOH :D
I ended up just using a different strategy with for I, v in pairs technique. AND IT WORKED.
while true do
wait()
if script.Parent.PlayersLeft.Value == 1 then
local teams = game:GetService('Teams')
for _, player in pairs(teams['Survivors']:GetPlayers()) do
print(player.Name)
end
end
end
I feel like such an idiot for not suggesting that.

Are you trying to change the text of a TextLabel? If so, use .Text instead of .Value
Not a textlabel, just a StringValue
I think I know the problem, you're getting the players of a team, and trying to see the name of it.
yes thats the idea but it only gets the one in the team from the if statemenbt
I answered it. You'tre trying to get a table, and trying to see the name of the table instead of the player.
