How to Handle Getting Team Players?
So I've made a script that works along with my Datastore but I'm getting a error called WinningTeamName is not a valid member of Teams.
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
game.ServerStorage.PlayerWin.Event:Connect(function()
local WinningTeam = script.WinningTeam.Value
local WinningTeamName = teams:FindFirstChild(WinningTeam)
local WinningPlayers = teams.WinningTeamName:GetPlayers()
for _, Player in pairs(teams[WinningTeamName]:GetPlayers()) do
local User = Player.UserId
local PlayerData = game.ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(User)
PlayerData.ELO.Value = PlayerData.ELO.Value + 10
end
end)

Use '[' not '{'. So do "teams[WinningTeamName]" on line 09 Troxure 87 — 5y

If you're using FindFirstChild() then you're making sure something is there. While using the method will initially prevent errors, it does nothing if you don't check it with an if statement.
-- Index all of your static variables outside of the event scope
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local PlayersService = game:GetService('Players')
local PlayerWinEvent = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("PlayerWin")
local WinningTeamValue = script:WaitForChild('WinningTeam')
PlayerWinEvent.Event:Connect(function()
local WinningTeam = teams:FindFirstChild(WinningTeamValue.Value)
if WinningTeam then
for _, Player in pairs(PlayersService:GetPlayers()) do
-- Is Player's team the winning Team?
if Player.Team == WinningTeam then
local PlayerUserId = Player.UserId
local PlayerData = ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(PlayerUserId)
-- if PlayerData exists
if PlayerData then
local ELO = PlayerData:FindFirstChild("ELO")
-- if ELO exists
if ELO then
ELO.Value = ELO.Value + 10
else
print ( "Elo value does not exist for ", Player.Name )
end
else
print ( Player.Name, 'does not exist in ServerStorage' )
end
end
end
else
print ( WinningTeamValue.Value, 'does not exist' )
end
end)
