How do I make a script that randomly chooses a player and kills them?
How do I make a random player chooser? All I want it to do for now is kill the player. I thought I could do this:
1 | local RP = game.Players:FindFirstChild(Random) |
2 |
3 | RP.Humanoid.Health = 0 |
But that didn't work. I also tried:
1 | local RP = game.Players:FindFirstChild() |
2 |
3 | RP.Humanoid.Health = 0 |
and:
1 | local RP = game.Players:FindFirstChild(function() |
2 |
3 | RP.Humanoid.Health = 0 |
But none of those worked. PLEASE please PLEASE help me!
FYI, I put this script in ServerScriptService.

Try learning math.random. Also learn how to put your code in a code block 3wdo 198 — 4y

Perhaps this might work
1 | local Players = game.Players:GetPlayers() |
2 | local nplrs = #Players |
3 | local Randomplayer = nil |
4 | if nplrs > 0 then |
5 | Randomplayer = Players[math.random(1, nplrs)] |
6 | end |
7 | if workspace[RandomPlayer.Name]:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
8 | workspace[RandomPlayer.Name]:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = 0 |
9 | end |

Hmmm... well, in that case, try removing .Name on lines 7 and 8 Oxprem 140 — 4y

i know your question is already answered, but i thought for practice i might give it a shot, hope this works
01 | local plrs = game.Players:GetPlayers() |
02 | local rando = plrs[math.random(1,#plrs)] |
03 |
04 | if rando.Character then |
05 | if rando.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
06 | rando.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0 |
07 | end |
08 | end |
09 |
10 | print(rando.Name.." was chosen to die") |
