Unable to hide other players' characters?

Hey there once again, I am developing a game and I have a skybox that every player spawns in, and I need to make each player look like he's there alone - hide other players.

I tried making a script as follows:

01local team = game.Teams["Choosing..."]
02local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
03 
04 
05    game.ReplicatedStorage.changeTeam:FireServer(team)
06 
07 
08    for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
09 
10        player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
11            for _,cPart in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
12 
13                if not cPart:IsA('BasePart') then return end
14                cPart.LocalTransparencyModifier = 1
15 
16            end    
17        end)
18    end

The other part of code activates, so the script runs, but it doesn't do anything, I still see other players. It is in a LocalScript as suggested, but it doesn't run in localscript nor a normal one.

Any help on fixing my code? (Or suggesting a other way to do it)

Thanks in advance, any tips appreciated.

EDIT-1: I realized the property is only of BaseParts, I also posted my new and whole code

when is this code being called? If it is just in the script like this then it will only ever run ONCE SynthetickDev 188 — 5y

It is in a localscript, so it should call when a player joins the game. And the changeTeam event fires successfuly, so as I said, the script 100% gets ran Doge_Brigade 94 — 5y

Your not alone I had this problem here's there script (This will Make every character but yours disappear, But you can do what you want with it) :

01for i,Foundplayer in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
02        if Foundplayer.Name ~= player.Name then
03 
04        for i,Child in pairs(Foundplayer.Character:GetChildren()) do   
05        if Child:IsA("Part") or Child:IsA("MeshPart") then
06            Child.Transparency = 1
07 
08        end
09        if Child:IsA("Accessory") then
10            Child.Handle.Transparency = 1
11        end
12        end
13 
14        end
15        Foundplayer.Character.Head.face.Transparency = 1   
16 end

Hope this Helped!

I guess I have to do it this way. Thanks! Doge_Brigade 94 — 5y
