You'd need to use the GetPlayerFromCharacter method.
Here's an example..
1 | p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(game.Workspace.Noob) |

Many ways first if we were to do it via LocalScript in StarterGui or StarterPack the script would look like this:
1 | Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --Sets the LocalPlayer |
2 | Character = Player.Character --Sets the Character |
But this is only for LocalScripts what if we would want to run it from a Touched **event via **Script?
Hierarchy: game > Workspace > Part > Script
1 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(TouchedObject) --Creates Touched event function |
2 | Character = TouchedObject.Parent --Sets Character |
3 | if Character then --If Character is TouchedObject.Parent then proceed |
4 | Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character) --Gets Player from Character |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
There are also ways to do this via ClickDetector:
Hierarchy: game > Workspace > Part > ClickDetector > Script
1 | Clicker = script.Parent --Defines ClickDetector |
2 | Clicker.MouseClick:connect(function(Player) --MouseClick event function |
3 | Char = Player.Character --Gets Character |
4 | end) |
Then there is of course the PlayerAdded/**CharacterAdded **events
1 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(Player) --PlayerAdded event |
2 | Player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(Character) --Character Added event from Player |
3 | print(Character.Name) |
4 | end) |
5 | end) |

so much complex, and no need for it, you could even use a normal script at workspace and find it without using GetPlayerFromCharacter. marcoantoniosantos3 200 — 10y
