So Im making a game and wanted a developer had joined script it worked with one person but not two. Can someone explain to me what I did wrong?
local Players = Game:GetService("Players")
function PlayerAdded( newPlayer )
if newPlayer.Name == "GuardainDev, StevenzsDev" then
local msg = Instance.new("Message", Workspace)
msg.Text = "A Developer has joined the game."
wait(6)
msg:Destroy()
end
end
Players.PlayerAdded:connect(PlayerAdded)
There are several things wrong with your code. I'll highlight them with comments. Here's the corrected code:
a = game.Players:GetChildren()--Better to use GetChildren, and it shouldn't be local either.
m = Instance.new("Message")
function DevMsg() --You had spaces in between the parentheses and the "NewPlayer", it is better to just have nothing in the parentheses
--I've pretty much rewritten everything below this line
for i,v in pairs(a) do
if v.Name == "GuardainDev" or "StevenzsDev" then
m.Parent = game.Workspace
m.Text = "A Developer has joined the game."
wait(6)
m:Destroy()
end
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(DevMsg)
Basically, the script above runs the function DevMsg every time a player joins. When as player joins, the script runs through everyone in the Players and checks if their name is GuardainDev or StevenzsDev.
If this doesn't work let me know, though it should work.

line 04 - I think you should try "GuardianDev","StevenzsDev" instead of "GuardainDev, StevenzsDev"
