How does one find a player’s position? I’m trying to find a player’s humanoid root part position, but I don’t know how. Any help on this is appreciated.

You can find their position by doing
game.Players.PlayerName.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position
However, this could error if Character or HumanoidRootPart isn’t there. Ideally you would want to do something more like
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
local humanoidRootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
while humanoidRootPart do
print(player.Name,"is at",tostring(humanoidRootPart.Position))
wait(4)
end
end)
end)
This would print the player’s position every 4 seconds.

-- access the character though any one of the several ways available
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()-- as an example
local pos = char:GetPrimaryPartCFrame().p -- the root part is the primary part for the character model
By the way, calling tostring on the position isn’t necessary, you can print a Vector3 value normally.
