How do I add a table that includes a players name?
I tried this
local list = {}
list.tostring(game.Players:GetChildren()[1].Name) = "Good"
print(list)
and it gave me an error Workspace.Script:2: Expected identifier when parsing expression, got '=' How would I get a players name on that table? NOTICE:The server is only a single player server so if you were asking me to use localscript, here is my awnser back.

Hey Mate, Since it's a 1 player game, you could insert them into the table, when they join the game!
local list = {}
game.Players:PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
table.Insert(list, player.Name)
end)
If you want to add the Player itself, just remove the .Name

When I tried printing it, the errors fixed (most errors you put on the script was easy to fix) but it just prints {} tamasjonas 62 — 3y

I also meant as a named value. tamasjonas 62 — 3y

Can you tell me what are you trying to achieve, Why do you even want a named value there? Borrahh 265 — 3y

I meant a custom name instead of a number. Also, it might be useful for my adminship requester that used Datastores instead of HTTP Requests(Mainly because I don't have discord and I don't have a domain). tamasjonas 62 — 3y

Easy
local plrs = {}
for i, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if player then
table.insert(plrs,player)
end
end

I meant instead of a number, it should be a nammed variable in a table. tamasjonas 62 — 3y

Nevermind I found how to set a named variable in a list, you may close this now. I may as well say that all the awnsers posted here did not tell me how to set a nammed variable in the list. My code:
local list = {}
wait()
list[game.Players:GetPlayers()[1].Name] = "Hi"
print(list)
Well, too late to reply.
