Hi, I'm trying to make a quick script where if the number of players in the game is 1, then it would print "test". Since I can't use NumPlayers, I am confused on how to do this. I have a script here that does not work and does not show any error in output. Any help would be appreciated.
if game.Players == 1 then
print("test")
end
You can use a IntValue to keep track of how many players that entered your game. I'll just give you an example and this is just a standard example so better practice can be made later.
In a script:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local AmountOfPlayers = nil
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
-- Check if our game hasn't created the AmountOfPlayers object first
-- If so create our new object
if not AmountOfPlayers then
AmountOfPlayers = Instance.new("IntValue")
AmountOfPlayers.Name = "AmountOfPlayers"
AmountOfPlayers.Value = 0
AmountOfPlayers.Parent = workspace
end
-- If our object exists then increment the games player count
if AmountOfPlayers then
AmountOfPlayers.Value = AmountOfPlayers.Value + 1
end
end)
Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
-- Decrease AmountOfPlayers Value by 1 each time a player is removed from the game.
end)
-- Then you could check in another script like
local playersConnectedAmount = workspace:WaitForChild("AmountOfPlayers")
if playersConnectedAmount.Value == 1 then
-- Run Code
...
end
wow pretty long, thx
while wait() do
if #game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers() == 1 then
print("test")
end
end

if #game.Players:GetPlayers() == 1 then
^
ill try that thx
still same result
The script probably loaded first so put a wait(5) before the first line
No that is bad practice.
doesnt work
Why can't you use NumPlayers?
