Why is my table not inserting any values?

local mapVotes = {}
	local playerVotes = {}
	for i, map in pairs(game.ReplicatedStorage.VotedMap:GetChildren()) do
		table.insert(mapVotes, map.Value)
	end
	for i, choice in pairs(game.ReplicatedStorage.VotedPlayers:GetChildren()) do
		table.insert(playerVotes, choice.Value)
	end
	table.sort(mapVotes)
	table.sort(playerVotes)
	print(mapVotes)
	print(playerVotes)

So I've tried to troubleshoot this and I think there's an issue with the for loops. Any ideas?

yes use unpack to print it, unpack will read each string.

EDIT:

instead of print(unpack(mapVotes)) try looping through every string and printing it, if it doesnt work then i dont know what will:

for _,i in pairs(mapVotes) do

	print(i)

end

EDIT: ok im sorry i didnt know they werer int values, int values cant print, everything makes so much sense. Ok its simple. tostring. new code:

for _,i in pairs(mapVotes) do

	e = tostring(i)
	print(e)

end

i dont know if it works with unpack, try it:

print( tostring( unpack( mapVotes ) ) )

Try a different approach, maybe you made a typo, or an Instance is not defined correctly within the script. Either way, I did re-create the script with new practices that I suggest you use.

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local MapVotes = {}
local PlayerVotes = {}

local VotedMap = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("VotedMap")
local VotedPlayer = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("VotedPlayers")

for index, value in pairs(VotedMap:GetChildren()) do
	if value ~= nil and typeof(value) == "Instance" and value:IsA("ValueBase") then
		table.insert(MapVotes, value.Value)
		print("Value has been inserted.")
	end
end

for index, value in pairs(VotedPlayer:GetChildren()) do
	if value ~= nil and typeof(value) == "Instance" and value:IsA("ValueBase") then
		table.insert(PlayerVotes, value.Value)
		print("Value has been inserted.")
	end
end

table.sort(MapVotes)
table.sort(PlayerVotes)
pcall(print, table.concat(MapVotes, ", "))
pcall(print, table.concat(PlayerVotes, ", "))
