Like a player in specific? or just players, if you’re looking for that, then you should use PlayerAdded.

You need to use: game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent).Team, and that will do it!
or, if you’re asking for the teamcolor, then it’s the same, just that it’s property is called TeamColor.

I did that but it said

Players.Cyber_Designer.Backpack.Tool.Handle.Script:15: attempt to index nil with 'TeamColor' 

-- SERVER SCRIPT INSIDE SERVERSCRIPTSERVICE
---> services
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

---> variables
local ball = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Ball")
local hitparts = script.Parent

local opart = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("O")


---> main
hitparts.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent).TeamColor == "0,0,255" then
		ball.CFrame = CFrame.new(opart.Position)
	end
end)

You put a value into a string, you need to do “Blue”.

#11

It still did not work

-- SERVER SCRIPT INSIDE SERVERSCRIPTSERVICE
---> services
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

---> variables
local ball = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Ball")
local hitparts = script.Parent

local opart = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("O")


---> main
hitparts.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent).TeamColor == "Really blue" then
		ball.CFrame = CFrame.new(opart.Position)
	end
end)
#12

if it’s better I can use the name

#13

Any errors?, could you kindly try providing a video as well please?

You can also try “if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent).TeamColor == Color3.new(0,0,255) then”.

Oh, wait I forgot. You need to add BrickColor.new(“Really blue”), sorry about that.

#14

You need to check if hit is a character limb or a random part within the game(or even the handle of a tool within your character):

--your code
hitparts.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if not player then return end --if the part isn't a character limb, ignore
	if player.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Really blue") then
		ball.CFrame = CFrame.new(opart.Position)
	end
end)

Error

Players.Cyber_Designer.Backpack.Tool.Handle.Script:15: attempt to index nil with 'TeamColor'

Nyrion there where no errors but nothing happened

#16

Oh, that’s because your checking the tool for the teamcolor, you have to check the player.

#17

how do I do that
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

#18

Try using, hit.Parent.Parent, if that doesn’t work then just slap another .Parent to it and it should work.
