Just created a table with game.Players:GetPlayers() then compared the value of #allPlrs with 2

local allPlrs = game.Players:GetPlayers()


if #allPlrs > 2 then
    print("There are enough players")
else
    print("Need more players")
end

I'm not the best with explaining anything, but hope this helps you understand a bit.

No, you should be using :GetPlayers() User#24403 69 — 5y

Thank you, I've changed it Icy_Qube 29 — 5y

Good but on line 4, since he wants 2 players or more, so >= instead of just >, doing just this means the number has to be 3 or higher to start the game. TheOnlySmarts 233 — 5y

NumPlayers is deprecated. Here's what you can do instead

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local PlayerCount = 0

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
    PlayerCount = PlayerCount + 1
end)

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function()
    PlayerCount =PlayerCount - 1
end)

while PlayerCount < 1 do
    print("Not enough players.")
    repeat wait(1) until PlayerCount > 1
end

print("Enough players.")

Line 14 is completely pointless. User#24403 69 — 5y
