Simple question on if then statement?

Asked by

Okay so this is pretty simple I've never used a command like this I should be able to debug it but it's got me stuck.

This is what I have:

if Player.Name ~= "shockyman101" then
    Player.Name:remove()
end

I'm currently making a game but I want it close to public so when people join I want it to automatically remove them from the game.

If you could help me debug this that would be great.

If I'm not wrong I did think ~= means does not equal. F_lipe 135 — 9y

Your problem is actually in the second line of code there.

Player.Name is a string, and strings do not have a remove method. As well, the remove method for ROBLOX objects is deprecated.

Try this instead:

if Player.Name ~= "shockyman101" then
    Player:Kick()
end

The Kick method of Player objects will remove the Player being kicked from the Game, while also disconnecting them so that they can't exploit and get back into the game without their Player.
