This will not set the value for the new player. Any help?

Asked 375 views2 answers

For some odd reason this script isnt working. The game is Filtering Enabled.

If your name is in the table it is suppose to set your value to true but it won't.

Any Fixes?

local Hoova = {"Sergiomontani10", "ClxppaThaDon", "Player1"}
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(newPlayer) 
    local HoovaCMember = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    HoovaCMember.Name = "HoovaCMember" 
    HoovaCMember.Parent = newPlayer
    for i,v in pairs(Hoova) do
        if v == newPlayer.Name then
            HoovaCMember.Value = true
        else
            HoovaCMember.Value = false
        end
    end
end)

That doesn't make any sense, v is a string.

That won't work the string does have the property ".Name". are you using a localscript or a script?

You dont need the else statement. The else statement turns off the value since the player is not equal to every single person in there.

I have no idea what you mean v being a string, the .Name is also the string, script is fine just needed to remove the else statement. I tested it out.

The else loop isn't necessary; in fact, it resets your BoolValue through every iteration.

Instead, remove the else condition and simply default your bool to false until a condition is met that it will be true.
