I tried making a script that should kill all players on start but it does not work. Here's the code (note that i am a beginner scripter) :

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
print(player)
local pname = player.Name
wait(4)
local homanuid = game.workspace..player.Name
local hooman = homanuid:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
repeat until hooman.Health == 0
hooman.Health = -10
wait(0.2)
end)

What's wrong? And the error is "attempt to concatenate field 'workspace' (a userdata value)" on line 7.

I don't think you can concatenate it with ".." since it's an object ABK2017 406 — 6y

First of all, you only need one . to access the children of an object. Also, you can use the keyword workspace rather than game.Workspace (note the capital W when using game. in front!). Finally, you can get the character by doing player.Character instead.

I'm not sure what's with your variable names but I won't judge:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

-- capital C for Connect! lowercase version is deprecated
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) 
    print(player)
    wait(4)
    local homanuid = player.Character -- better way to access character
    local hooman = homanuid:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    repeat 
        hooman.Health = -10
        wait(0.2)
    until hooman.Health == 0
end)

Hope this helps! :)

Actually, repeat loops don't have ends, their "end" is "until" and you need a wait()  User#19524 175 — 6y

This won't work because A.) it'll crash the client because there is no wait() and B.) the loop stops the script completely even with the wait() because the part that kills the player is after the loop poke7667 142 — 6y
