Can I use a for loop to change a string value?
I am in a situation where I need this for loop to change a couple string values. I can't find anywhere online where it says it is possible, but I can't see anywhere that it's impossible. Here's my script. Can anybody help.
01 | local RS = game.ReplicatedStorage |
02 | local Open1v1Server = RS.Open1v1Server |
03 |
04 | local P1 = fifthFrame.Player1 |
05 | local P2 = fifthFrame.Player2 |
06 | local children = Open1v1Server.Players:GetChildren() |
07 | for i = 2, #children do |
08 | P1.PlayerName.Value = i, children.Name |
09 | P2.PlayerName.Value = i, children.Name |
10 | end |

Of course it's possible. However, the method you're doing it makes no sense.
1 | P1.PlayerName.Value = i, children.Name |
What are you trying to do here? First of all, children doesn't HAVE a Name attribute, and you can't set a string value to two things (i, children.Name)
If you're trying to set it to the value of i concatenated with the name OF the value associated with i in the children array, you would make it
1 | P1.PlayerName.Value = i .. children[i].Name |
