So i got a global death script for my minigame so when a player dies that he wont be in the Game anymore ( like registered ) so the game says "the blabla won" it did all work but now it says that :

Workspace.Globaldeath:5: bad argument #1 to 'Connect' (RBXScriptSignal expected, got function)

here is the script



game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
        character:waitForChild("Humanoid").Died.connect(function()
local Update = {}
for i,v in pairs(_G.gameplayers) do
    if v ~= player.Name then
        table.insert(Update,1,v)

    end
end     

            _G.gameplayers = Update
        end)
    end)
end)

and how can i add that if a player dies he goes into the team "Medium stone grey" ? :) ty

I see your problem now! In line 3 of your posted code, you are supposed to use :Connect(), not .connect(). Also, :connect() is already deprecated, so you MUST get used to that (use :Connect() instead). Now, let me show you the fix:

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
        character:waitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function() -- Use :Connect()
        local Update = {}
        for i,v in pairs(_G.gameplayers) do
                if v ~= player.Name then
                    table.insert(Update,1,v)
                end
        end     
            _G.gameplayers = Update
        end)
    end)
end)

If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments. Thanks!

By the way, you should try not to use _G because it is not as safe as you imagine. You can just keep it local in the Main Game Script, then use BindableEvents or BindableFunctions to communicate between the death script and the main game script. Use the Roblox Wiki for more info :) starlebVerse 685 — 7y
