Displaying A Player list on a text button?
Displaying A Player list on a text button I want to make a bunch of text buttons displaying player names. All though this doesnt work if it worked would it be efficient? If not how could I make it?
player = game.Players.NumPlayers playerRand = math.random(1, #player) script.Parent.Text = playerRand.Name

No. This would not be efficient at ALL. You would have many copies of the same name. You should use this:
-- BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING, CREATE SLOTS NUMBERED 1 - 8 -- CHANGE 8 TO MAX PLAYERS
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
players = game.Players:GetChildren()
repeat wait() until player.Character
plrn = 1
for i, v in pairs(players) do
slot = script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild(plrn)-- LOCATION OF SLOT
slot.Text = v.Name
slot.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
chosenPlayer = game.workspace:FindFirstChild(slot.Text)
if chosenPlayer then
-- SCRIPT THAT DOES STUFF TO PLAYER
end
plrn = plrn + 1
end)
end
