Attempt to get length of a number value?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello!
I want the winner to go back to the players team.
However, I have an error “attempt to get length of a number value”…
Heres the code:

local winner =  #game.Teams.Winner:GetPlayers()
local winnerFr = winner[math.random(1, #winner)]
winnerFr.Team = game.Teams.Playing

What’s wrong here?
Thanks!

This should work:

local winner =  game.Teams.Winner:GetPlayers()
local winnerFr = winner[math.random(#winner)]
winnerFr.Team = game.Teams.Playing

The error is that you are trying to get the length of the player.

#3

The error is that “winner” was already assigned the length of the array returned by “game.Teams.Winner:GetPlayers()” and he was attempting to get the length of that length inside the “math.random()” call, your solution is correct though.

It’s not working! It just gives this error:

ServerScriptService.Script:367: attempt to get length of a number value
#5

Your problem is like what @Forummer said you try to get length of the length change this line

To

local winnerFr = winner[math.random(1,winner)]

EDIT: Wrong post reply srry FunAsik
Edit2: I made some mistake do what FunAsik Suggest sorry tho

That will not work since here winner variable is a number, not a table, so you’ll not be able to index values. Necessarily OP should change winner variable to what FunAsiK suggested.
