How can I get a script to check a players role?
local sheriff
local murderer
local innocent = {}
local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
murderer = players[math.random(#players)].Name
sheriff = players[math.random(#players)].Name
for i,v in pairs(players) do
if v.Name ~= sheriff and v.Name ~= murderer then
table.insert(innocent, v.Name)
end
end
print("MURDERER: "..murderer,"SHERIFF: "..sheriff, "INNOCENTS: "..table.concat(innocent,", "))
Ok so this picks a random player to be murder, etc you all know how the game works, and now I need another script to check if the player is murder, or whatever they are, so it can tell the player that they are whatever they are

If you're checking within the same script just say if plrVariable == muderer then. If you're checking from another script, I'd make a StringValue in each player called Role or something and set its value to whatever the player's role is.
I would do something like this-
Script 1:
local Players = Game:GetService("Players")
function PlayerJoined(plr)
print(plr.Name .. " joined the server.")
local role = Instance.new("StringValue")
role.Name = "Role"
role.Value = "default" -- you could replace default with whatever
role.Parent = plr
end
for _, plr in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
PlayerJoined(plr)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:connect(PlayerJoined)
Script 2:
if plrVariable.Role.Value == "murderer" then
print(plrVariable.Name .. " is the murderer.")
end
