How do I change this value to the name of the player?

Asked Sep 4, 2016221 views1 answers

Function(Player)
 local Insta = Instance.new((serverstorage,StringValue)
Insta.Name = Name
if serverstorage.Name then
Insta.Name = Name2
 game.serverstorage.Name.value =  player.UserID
end

^^This obviously doesn't work, but I was in a rush so uh, yeah, How do I get the name of the player into the value?

Help would be great TuT

Well since this is going to be put into ServerStorage, it has to be in a Script, not a LocalScript.

Here is the code I would recommend:

game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(function(player)
	wait(1)
	local insta = Instance.new("StringValue", game.ServerStorage)
	insta.Name = player.Name
	insta.Value = player.UserId
end)

Use Players.PlayerAdded, not Players.ChildAdded.
