So this is a really simple script but I just cant figure it out can someone help me out.
local Rplayers = game.Players:GetChildren()
local Mplayers = math.random(1,#Rplayers)
local Aplayers = Rplayers[1]
local Bplayers = Rplayers[2]
Thank you for helping me!
To get two random players
local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
local randomPlayer1 = players[math.random(#players)]
local randomPlayer2 = players[math.random(#players)]
while #players > 1 and randomPlayer1 == randomPlayer2 do
players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
randomPlayer2 = players[math.random(#players)]
end
Thank you do you know how I could make it so it wont be same players?
Edited
Here Duckie will elaborate some more for you. So in the roblox lua world to get players you use game.Players:GetPlayers()
local players = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()
Now to get random players! First we get our first player and when we get out second player we make sure the first and second are not the same.
local players = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()
local playerone = players[math.random(1, #players)]
local playertwo = players[math.random(1, #players)]--you don't need the 1 but it helps
if playertwo == playerone then
repeat
local playertwo = players[math.random(1, #players)]--you don't need the 1 but it helps
until playertwo ~= playerone
end
There the end :D
You have to be careful when running a loop to allow the loop to yield (wait) or ensure that there is a reasonable break condition. If there is only one player in the game when line 01 is run, your loop will never end, and the script will crash.
I see, thanks!
To get a random player do this:
local rand = math.random(1,#game.Players:GetChildren())
local chosen = game.Players:GetChildren()[rand]
If this helped, clicked accept
GetPlayers()
Doesn't matter
You're teaching someone to use the wrong method vs the right method, so it does matter.
