I am attempting to reference the player through game.Workspace[player.Name] . It's not working, why is this?
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
print(game.Workspace[player.Name].Name) -- Printing name of player in workspace.
end)
My username is N43FGXL and I get the error: N43FGXL is not a valid member of Workspace When I check the explorer, the model of my character is in the workspace...
You are confusing the player and the character. The character is the player's physical representation in-game. Just because the player has joined doesn't mean their physical appearance has loaded. To do what you described:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function (char)
print(char.Name) -- char is equivalent to workspace[player.Name]
end)
end)
You are over complicating things. It's actually quite simple!
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
print(player.Name)
end)

I'm trying to find the character in the workspace. I just had an example.
