How to remove a string from GetChildren() ?
game:GetService('Teams'):GetChildren()
I want to remove a team from this table(I think this is a table) But I don't know how to do so.
Attempt 1 (Using table.remove())
Code :
local team = game:GetService("Teams"):GetChildren()
table.remove(team , "Lobby")
Output :
ServerScriptService.Script:2: bad argument #2 to 'remove' (number expected, got string)
Attempt 2 (Finding the position and then removing it with table.remove())
Code :
local team = game:GetService("Teams"):GetChildren()
print(team)
Output :
table: 0xe3a8b27dd6e99e38
Help is really appreciated!!!

table.remove() take two argument. First one is the table, second one is the position of the key. But :GetChildren() is alway return a random order table, so it hard to know the position of "Lobby". Block_manvn 395 — 4y

Sadly, Roblox doens't supply a way to get the index of an item from an array. But you can use this workaround:
local teams = game:GetService("Teams"):GetChildren()
local team = teams.Lobby
for key,value in pairs (teams) do
if team then
table.remove(teams,team)
end
end
Even then, why would you want to remove the team?

you can do `array[index]` to get an item at a specific index User#23252 26 — 4y
