In the session or their total time?

add this server script in serverscriptservice

local times = {}

function playerAdded(player)
    if times[player.UserId] then return end
    times[player.UserId] = 0
    while task.wait(1) do
        if not times[player.UserId] then break end
        times[player.UserId] += 1
    end
end

for _, v in game.Players:GetPlayers() do
    task.spawn(playerAdded, player)
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    task.spawn(playerAdded, player)
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    if not times[player.UserId] then return end
    times[player.UserId] = nil
end)

There are several mistakes in your code,

You cannot directly execute both break and return, and you’re calling the task.spawn() even before the function is declared, but thanks anyways, I’ll give it a try

if that’s the case, remove ‘return’. I’m not at my pc

#7

I’m pretty sure you can call functions before they are defined

Might be task.spawn() then

Well, on the other hand, it works perfectly, thanks!
