while wait() do
for i = 5,0,-1 do
--Lobby Timer
wait(sec)
print(i.." / Before")
end
for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
--Player Monster
local randomplayer = player[math.random(1, #player)]
end
end
The output say that player is a userdata value and i d'ont know how to fix this
well, the reason might be that player, is well... a player object and not a table so you might want to try something on the lines of this
math.randomseed(tick())
while true do
local plrs = game.Players:GetPlayers()
local rIndex = math.random(1,#plrs)
local randomplr = plrs[rIndex]
wait()
end
So things to take away:
1) don't use while wait() do end, use while true do wait() end
2) use math.randomseed(tick()) for "better randomness"
If you're trying to select a random player, that's not the way to do it.
Try this:
while wait() do
for i = 5,0,-1 do
--Lobby Timer
wait(sec)
print(i.." / Before")
end
local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
local randomplayer = players[math.random(1, #players)]
end
a for loop literates through a table, and the variable is the object, not a table which you'd use a # operator to get a length. this means you dont need to use a for loop to get a random player, but just use game.Players:GetPlayers(), math.random and the # operator alone.
while true do
for i = 5,0,-1 do
--Lobby Timer
wait(sec)
print(i.." / Before")
end
local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
local chosenPlayer = players[math.random(1,#players)]
print(chosenPlayer.Name) -- example
-- do stuff here
-- you dont need a wait as theres a for loop which yields
end
