How do you allow people through Door restrictions?

I tried different codes GetChildren, GetPlayers, IsInGroup, game.Players.LocalPlayers and it just wouldn't allow anyone to go through the door. I just want TeamColor "Really Blue" also known as Team "ct" to get through the door

01local leaderboard = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('leaderboard')
02local door = script.Parent
03 
04function open()
05    door.CanCollide = false
06    for transparency = 0, 1, .1 do
07        door.Transparency = transparency
08        wait(.1)
09    end
10end
11 
12function close()
13    for transparency = 1, 0, -.1 do
14        door.Transparency = transparency
15        wait(.1)
16    end
17    door.CanCollide = true
18end
19 
20 
21function get_player(part)
22    for _, player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
23        if part:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then
24            return player
25        end
26    end
27end
28

30door.Touched:connect(function(part)
31    local player = get_player(part)
32    if not player then return end
33 
34    local allow = (
35        game.Players:GetChildren().TeamColor == 'Really blue' --THIS LINE IS KILLING ME
36    )
37    if allow then
38        open()
39        delay(4, close)
40    elseif not allow then
41        game.Players.LocalPlayer:LoadCharacter()
42    end
43end)

Oh and if you are going to reply don't reply to me about "IsInGroup".

Also it just loads the character... No errors found hardhitsniper 30 — 9y

This is what's wrong:

`1`	`game.Players:GetChildren().TeamColor` `==` `'Really blue'`

It is wrong because:

1. You did not specify which child of game.Players:GetChildren() to index.

2. Team Color values are not strings, they are BrickColor.new("Color name")

This is a different, simpler version of your function, less fancy, but just as effective:

1door.Touched:connect(function(hit)
2    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
3    if player then
4        if player.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Really blue") then
5            open()
6            delay(4,close)
7        end
8    end
9end)
