You can also do this in one line.
1 | local randomPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayers()[math.random(1,#game.Players:GetPlayers())] |
Broken down:
game.Players:GetPlayers() returns a table of all the players in the game
The [] brackets get something from a table, e.g.
1 | local table = {"apple","banana"} |
2 | print(table[2]) |
3 | > banana |
math.random(arg1,arg2) returns a random number between arg1 and arg2
#game.Players:GetPlayers() gets the number of players in the game (# gets the length of a table)
Using the player we've got, we can put them into a team.
1 | local randomPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayers()[math.random(1,#game.Players:GetPlayers())] |
2 | randomPlayer.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Teams TeamColor here") |
