The player in workspace is called the character. You can simply get the character by adding .Character after the player
game.Players.LocalPlayer -- This is the player
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character -- This is the Character of the LocalPlayer
I think you're looking for the GetPlayerFromCharacter() function. To get the player's instance from a character, you'd use GetPlayerFromCharacter()
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local workspaceCharacter = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("player name goes here")
local player
if workspaceCharacter ~= nil then
player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(workspaceCharacter)
else
print("not a valid character model.")
player = nil
end
