is there anyway to use a table to check a players name like this:
local players = {"paper", "someone", "aLightBulb"}
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
if player.Name == players then
print("yes")
end
end)
but that wouldnt work, is there anyway to do this using a table like an array or something
Iteration of an array is very easy:
local players = {"paper", "someone", "aLightBulb"}
for _, player in pairs(players) do
print(player) -- prints out "paper", "someone", "aLightBulb"
end
Now you merely check if the player name matches any of the table's values:
local players = {"paper", "someone", "aLightBulb", "Vulkarin"}
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local found = false
for _, storedPlayer in pairs(players) do
if player.Name == storedPlayer then
print("yes")
found = true
break
end
end
if not found then print("no") return end
end)
