How do you get the most crowded area with players in it

[pumpkyrofl (Pumpky)]

hello, keeping it simple, i want a script that checks all players (or preferably npcs n’ players) and check if they’re in a crowded place (with most players n’ npcs near them) and then returns the player that is in the MOST crowded area

i need nothing else but the code and an explanation

You’ll need a script that iterates through all players and NPCs, checks their positions, and determines which player is in the most crowded area.

-- Function to count the number of players and NPCs near a given position
local function countNearbyEntities(position, radius)
    local count = 0
    for _, player in ipairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
        if player.Character and (player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position - position).magnitude <= radius then
            count = count + 1
        end
    end
    for _, npc in ipairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
        if npc:IsA("Model") and npc:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and not game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayerFromCharacter(npc) then
            if (npc.PrimaryPart.Position - position).magnitude <= radius then
                count = count + 1
            end
        end
    end
    return count
end

-- Function to find the entity in the most crowded area
local function findMostCrowdedEntity()
    local mostCrowdedEntity = nil
    local maxCount = 0

    for _, player in ipairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
        local count = countNearbyEntities(player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position, 50) -- Adjust radius as needed
        if count > maxCount then
            maxCount = count
            mostCrowdedEntity = player
        end
    end
    for _, npc in ipairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
        if npc:IsA("Model") and npc:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and not game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayerFromCharacter(npc) then
            local count = countNearbyEntities(npc.PrimaryPart.Position, 50) -- Adjust radius as needed
            if count > maxCount then
                maxCount = count
                mostCrowdedEntity = npc
            end
        end
    end

    return mostCrowdedEntity
end

-- Example usage
local mostCrowdedEntity = findMostCrowdedEntity()
if mostCrowdedEntity then
    print("Most crowded entity:", mostCrowdedEntity.Name)
else
    print("No entities found.")
end
