How to make in pairs don't find players

[NoobyRequiem]

I want to make only environment invisible not players

Your post is a bit confusing, but I’ll try to answer it based off how I interpreted it.

I assume you are looping through everything in an area, then want to only process the object in the area if it is not a player.

There are a few ways to achieve this. Here are a couple:

local Players = game.Players
for _, Object in ipairs( -- [[ Put the thing you are looping here]] --) do
   if Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Object.Parent) then 
        continue
   end
   -- add the code to make it invisible here
end

local Players = game.Players
for _, Object in ipairs( -- [[ Put the thing you are looping here]] --) do
   if not Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Object.Parent) then 
         -- add the code to make it invisible here
   end
end

Note that these may become laggy due to the large number of calls to the GetPlayerFromCharacter function. An alternative is to store the player’s before hand.

i.e.

local Chars = {}
for _, Player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
    table.insert(Chars, Player.Character)
end
for _, Object in ipairs( -- [[ Put the thing you are looping here]] --) do
   if table.find(Chars, Object.Parent) then 
        continue
   end
   -- add the code to make it invisible here
end

		for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
			if v:IsA("Part") or v:IsA("Texture") or v:IsA("Decal") or v:IsA("SpawnLocation") then
				task.spawn(function()
					originTransparency[v] = v.Transparency
					game.TweenService:Create(v,TweenInfo.new(0.5),{Transparency = 1}):Play()
				end)
			end
		end

it’s make everything invisible but I don’t want players to be invisible

Yeah, that’s what I determined was the case. In my original post, I provided a solution to it.

Player’s Texture, Decal, Accessories are still invisible

try this alternative:

local Chars = {}
for _, Player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
    table.insert(Chars, Player.Character)
end
for _, Object in ipairs( -- [[ Put the thing you are looping here]] --) do
   IsOfChar = false
   for _, Char in ipairs(Chars) do
        if Object:IsDescendantOf(Char) then
           IsOfChar = true
      end
   end
    if IsOfChar then continue end
   -- add the code to make it invisible here
end

---

Tbh, you may be better making EVERYTHING invisible, player and all, then just seperately making the players visible again

Never knew :IsDescendantOf() exist, Thanks
