How do I give a green light to players on the green team?
I'm trying to make players on the green team glow with a green light, but when I do, I get the error "charname is not a valid member of Players". What i'm trying to do is have the script find the name of the player (from the model), then find the corresponding player in game.Players.
01 | function onRespawn(Character) |
02 | if (Character:findFirstChild("LowerTorso") ~= nil) then |
03 | local charname = Character.Name |
04 | local playerteam = game.Players.charname.Team |
05 | if playerteam == "Green" then |
06 | local light = Instance.new("PointLight") |
07 | light.Parent = Character.LowerTorso |
08 | light.Range = 15 |
09 | light.Brightness = 10 |
10 | light.Color = Color3.new(0,255,0) |
11 | end |
12 | end |
13 | if (Character:findFirstChild("LowerTorso") == nil) then |
14 | end |
15 | end |
16 | game.Workspace.ChildAdded:connect(onRespawn) |

Try editing this:
01 | game.Workspace.ChildAdded:connect(function(child) |
02 | if(child:IsA("Model"))then |
03 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(child); |
04 | if(player ~= nil)then |
05 | -- this model is a character |
06 | if(player.Team == game.Teams.Green)then |
07 | -- player is on the green team, make them glow |
08 | local light = Instance.new("PointLight", child.Torso); |
09 | light.Range = 15; |
10 | light.Brightness = 10; |
11 | -- Color3.new(r, g, b) takes three parameters between 0 and 1 (percentage of each color) whereas Color3.fromRGB(r, g, b) takes three parameters between 0 and 255 |
12 | light.Color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 255, 0); |
13 | else |
14 | -- player is not on the green team |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end |
18 | end) |

Doesn't work. JarFullOfMayonnaise 48 — 7y

Answer edited; the value of player.Team is a Team Object, not a string, as I took from your original code. Next time, try editing the code. Fix was simple. KidTech101 376 — 7y

I did edit it and I though that was what you were checking for. JarFullOfMayonnaise 48 — 7y

This worked. I modified a toolgiver to give pointlights instead, then I put it on the spawnpad.
01 | local debounce = false |
02 |
03 | function getPlayer(humanoid) |
04 | local players = game.Players:children() |
05 | for i = 1, #players do |
06 | if players[i].Character.Humanoid == humanoid then return players[i] end |
07 | end |
08 | return nil |
09 | end |
10 |
11 | function onTouch(part) |
12 |
13 | local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
14 | if (human ~= nil) and debounce == false then |
15 |
