I'm trying to detect if there is an "alive" value in the player. If the value is there, the character is alive If the value isn't there, the character isn't. (not a specific player)
How would I do this?
for roundtime = 30, 1, -1 do
local player =
if player.Character:FindFirstChild("inGame") == nil then
playersalive.Value = playersalive.Value -1
end
if playersalive.Value == 1 then break end
wait(1)
text.Value = "Game time: "..roundtime
end
You need to loop through the players and perform the actions on each of them.
for roundtime = 30, 1, -1 do
for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChild("inGame") == nil then
playersalive.Value = playersalive.Value -1 -- I'm assuming this was defined previously
end
end
if playersalive.Value <= 1 then break end -- In case it drops beneath 1 (everyone is out of the game).
wait(1)
text.Value = "Game time: "..roundtime
end
Hope this helped.
EDIT: Since it's taking so long, you could try having the table already present in the script so you don't have to get it each time, and see if that helps.
local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
players[player] = true
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
if players[player] then
players[player] = nil
end
end)
for roundtime = 30, 1, -1 do
for _, player in pairs(players) do
if player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChild("inGame") == nil then
playersalive.Value = playersalive.Value -1 -- I'm assuming this was defined previously
end
end
if playersalive.Value <= 1 then break end -- In case it drops beneath 1 (everyone is out of the game).
wait(1)
text.Value = "Game time: "..roundtime
end
If this doesn't work, I'm not sure; maybe someone else can answer better. Hope this helped.
You can look through everything in Workspace, see if it has a Humanoid, then see if the value which is in the model. It's not too complicated. Just put this bit of code where you need it.
for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do -- Getting a table of everything in Workspace
if v:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- Check if the model has a Humanoid. (only characters have a humanoid in them unless you/a script inserts one in)
if v:FindFirstChild("inGame") -- Assuming that's the value you're looking for.
-- whatever you want the script to do if the value is there.
else -- just so the script wont error
print("player has died")
end
end
end
