Does roblox have a shutdown function?
I'm wondering if roblox has a shutdown function? If not how could I do this? I've gotten this far, although I'm not sure what to do next:
players = game.Players:GetChildren()
for 1,#players,1 do
-- I know I can use :Kick() somehow, although how could I possibly accomplish this? How do I grab the player?
end

Currently there is not a function available to shut down a server via a script, you will need to kick all of the players on the server.
It would be best to use the function GetPlayers and loop kick the players.
Example:-
for _, plr in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
plr:Kick('Server shutdown')
end
-- your example
local plrList = game.Players:GetPlayers() -- passes back an array
for i=1, #plrList do
plrList[i]:Kick('Server shutdown') -- we access the array index and kick that player
end
You may also want to kick all players that join the game as well.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr:Kick('Server shutdown')
end
I hope this helps.
