how do i make a list of all players in a game?
2 answers
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
for i,v in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
print(v.Name)
end
end)
when someone joins the game you make a loop through all the players and print their names

I think putting Player Removed would also matter.

it keeps saying Player is not a valid member of DataModel

so the service is renamed, also poke no it doesnt matter

script updated so it works no matter what name the service has

@Gameplayer365247v2 it actually does. The person asking the question is probably using this code to get an up-to-date list on the players. So adding a function for a player removed event DOES matter.
Instead of using an in pairs loop, I would print them in a table so it's easier to read. Here
local playerService= game:GetService("Players")
local playerTable= { }
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
table.insert(playerTable[player.Name])
end
game.Players.PlayerRemoved:Connect(function(player)
table.remove(playerTable[player.Name])
end
while wait(15) do
print("playerTable")
end

Your Script is also giving me the Player is not a member of datamodel

completely unnessesary, you dont need to insert any names into a table, just need to loop through the player list

I was thinking about ram usage, so using tables would reduce how much ram would be used. Ram usage is actually kinda important when you're making actual games to improve user experience, but whatever.

also quick comment, printing i, i believe wont do anything since i in this case is the Players service which apparently is renamed
