Getting a random player

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

on my previus pos ive tried everything that peaple suggested but still get this error and its a server script

attempt to call missing method ‘GetPlayers’ of table

local players = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers().

local pickedPlayer = players[math.random(1, #players)]. -- heres error
#2

It’s because the Players variable will be defined by the players in the server at the moment the server opens so it will error because there isn’t any player

#3

no I have a wait 60 now_______

#4

Where did you put the wait in the script ?

#5

not really a wait I just have a getproperty change value wich goes off after a minute

#6

Can you send the full script please ?

#7

There is a period at the end of the first line. Is that the problem?
As well as the second.

#8

Can you print game:GetService(“Players”)

#9

There’s a period at the end of both, remove them and it should work

try this

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

-- Wait for the Players service to load if it's not available yet
while not playersService do
    Players= game:WaitForService("Players")
end

local players = playersService:GetPlayers()

if #players > 0 then
    local pickedPlayer = players[math.random(1, #players)]
    -- your code goes here
else
    print("No players found.")
end
