How would I make an in-game BoolValue change to false when a person dies?

So I have a global script inside the Workspace, here's what's in it.

for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
    if v.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
        v.Character.Humanoid.Died:connect(function()
            v.InGame.Value = false
        end)
    end
end

I also have a rounds script, that changes that value to true when the round starts, that script also kills the player. It changes the value true, and works 100%.

And I have a script that inserts this value into the player when the start:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
    ing = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    ing.Name = "InGame"
    ing.Value = false
    ing.Parent = p
end)

The script that doesn't work, is the first one.

            v.InGame.Value = 1
        end)
    end
end

Values can't be turned into True nor false. Try making the value into numbers. Make it so 1 = false and 0 = true

It's a BoolValue. I have other BoolValues that I have changed to true or false. systematicaddict 295 — 10y

You have to also use the PlayerAdded event in the first script because as it is now, it only will look through each player once and connect their Humanoid.Died event once. You have to connect Died every time the character respawns.

Game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
    plr.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char)
        char:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
            plr:FindFirstChild("InGame").Value = false
        end)
    end)
end)
