How can I make this script only kill others, and not the one clicking the button?
unction onClick()
for i_, players in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do --gets list of characters
if players.Character ~= nil then --makes sure chracter/s is existent
players.Character:BreakJoints() --kills character
end
end
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClick)

You need to use the if statement on line 3 to determine whether or not 'players's Name is equivalent to the one clicking the button.
But this isn't going to work just on the client due to FilteringEnabled. You have to setup a RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage to tell the server to execute the code.
Use FireServer from a LocalScript and use the OnServerEvent event from the server to recieve the FireServer cal.
Script in ServerScriptStorage:
local re = game.ReplicatedStorage.ClickedButton --This is your remote
function onClick(c)
for _, players in pairs(game.Players:Players()) do
if players.Name ~= c.Name then
players.Character:BreakJoints()
end
end
end
re.OnServerEvent:Connect(onClick)
LocalScript:
local re = game.ReplicatedStorage.ClickedButton --This is your remote
function onClick()
re:FireServer()
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(onClick)

function killOthers()
for _, v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
local name = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
if not v.Character.Name == name then
v.Character.Head:Destroy()
end
end
end

if you want to do this with an executor(do not endorse exploiting) then replace v.char.name == name with v.char.name == "YourName" RFL890 4 — 3y
