So heres my script.
function onClicked(player)
local nam = player.Name
if
game.Players.nam == true
then
game.Workspace:ClearAllChildren()
end
end
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)
What I'm trying to do is find out if the clickers name, then cross examine it from the players list to make sure they're a player. How would I do this?
You can say:
function onClicked(player)
local nam = player.Name
local found = game.Players:FindFirstChild(nam)
if found then
game.Workspace:ClearAllChildren()
end
end
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)
What we're doing here is that we're assigning a variable called "found" to the player's name in the game. We use FindFirstChild to find a child named "nam" in game.Players. If the player's name is not found, then the variable will be set to nil.
We check if it has been found by seeing if the variable is not nil:
if found then
This should work, however, you don't really need to be checking if a player exists because a player is automatically added to game.Players.
