So this script is supposed to detect how many people are on a certain team, and react to it. However, it isn't working, and I don't know why.
Can someone please help me? Here's the script:
local greenTeam = {}
for _,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if v.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Bright green") then
table.insert(greenTeam,v)
end
end
while wait() do
if #greenTeam == 0 then
print('Green Team Ded')
end
end
Here's a script that does what you asked and a little neater:
local team = game.Teams;
function getPlayers(teamColor) -- team color is easier than name
local found = { };
for _,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if v.TeamColor == teamColor then
table.insert(found, v)
end
end
return #found
end
repeat -- SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM
wait() until getPlayers(BrickColor.new('Bright red')) == 0
or getPlayers(BrickColor.new('Bright yellow')) == 0
or getPlayers(BrickColor.new('Bright green')) == 0
or getPlayers(BrickColor.new('Bright blue')) == 0
-- do stuff
NOTE: Using a repeat will STOP once one is detected to be true. You can remove, add, or use and statements if you like.
Your problem is that you're never recalculating the team. So it the table will always return the same results as when you first defined it. To fix this, define the table in the loop.
Here's an example of a more efficient code;
local teams = game.Teams:GetChildren()
function getPlayers(team)
local t = {}
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if v.TeamColor == team.TeamColor then
table.insert(t,v)
end
end
return t
end
while wait() do
for i = 1,#teams do
local tab = getPlayers(teams[i])
if # tab == 0 then
print(teams[i].Name..' Team Died')
end
end
end
How would I edit this for individual teams?
Use the getPlayers() function with arguments of the team Instance. So if you wanna find players of blue, do getPlayers(game.Teams.Blue)
