As the title implies, I’m trying to make a script that will put you on a spectating team on the sidelines when you die, but don’t know how.

First, you’ll need to define the player, and then that player’s character. Then you’d do something like the below code once you’re ready for the player to be set to the spectating team after dying.
local spectateTeam = teams['Spectators'] -- name this whatever ur team name is
local player
local character -- let me know if u need help w/ these
character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function() -- event that connects when the humanoid dies
player.Team = spectateTeam
end)

How do I define the player and character? Sorry, I haven’t done much of this kind of stuff before
No problem.
To define the character you could do a lot of different things, but I’ll give you two examples. It depends on when you want to connect the events.
In this example, I define the player and their character as soon as they join the game.
local pl = game:GetService('Players')
local teams = game:GetService('Teams')
local spectateTeam = teams['Spectators'] -- name this whatever ur team name is
pl.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) -- event when player first joins the game
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait() -- only defines the character once, so this code will only happen once
character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function() -- event that connects when the humanoid dies
player.Team = spectateTeam
end)
end)
In the below example, I grab a list of all the players in the game & then use the same code with all their characters.
local pl = game:GetService('Players')
local teams = game:GetService('Teams')
local spectateTeam = teams['Spectators'] -- name this whatever ur team name is
for _,player in pairs(pl:GetPlayers()) do -- for loop that cycles thru the current playerlist and connects an event to all of their characters
if player.Team ~= spectateTeam then
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function() -- event that connects when the humanoid dies
player.Team = spectateTeam
end)
end
end

This worked for me in singleplayer testing. I will test this with multiple accounts and see if it works out
