I get an error about lol being nil, at line "print(lol)", i think im not understanding the flow of code that includes the player added and removed functions. Also the script can't be local.
Players = game:GetService("Players")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
lol = 3
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
print(lol)
end)
I think this will help your problem:
local lol = "EmptyString"
Players = game:GetService("Players") --This could also be 'game.Players'
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
lol = "3"
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
print(lol)
end)
Perhaps even thou you didn't make the 'lol' variable local in the PlayerAdded function, it probably still made usable only within that function.
The only difference between local functions/variables and global functions/variables is that a global functions/variable can be referenced before it is assigned, so this is correct:
local lol = "lol"
print(lol)
This is correct too:
print(lol)
lol = "lol"
but this is not:
print(lol)
local lol = "lol"
So yeah, hope this fixes your problem :D

It's null because its only global in your scope { }. If you want it to be global throughout your script then place it outside of that function.
it's nullified because you already ended the script right there when you put an "end)"
