So, For I while i have used
for _,plr in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
end
to change something for everyplayer through a normal script.
But does this code actually affect players in pairs?
If so, how can i loop through each player individually?
Thanks in advance for looking at my quesiton.
All pairs means is that it continuously gives you both the key and the value. That's the pair. No, players are not dealt with in pairs.
If so, how can i loop through each player individually?
You already do. To see it more clearly you can use the for-loop equivalent. Pairs is actually only super useful for dictionaries. But it is often used because it skips a few lines.
local array = game.Players:GetPlayers()
for i=1,#array do
local v = array[i]
--code
end
For more information:
Thank You for clarifying this for me

It's better to use ipairs in your case.
