Invalid argument #2 to 'random' (interval is empty)

[beedo1011]

This code works fine when the round first starts. When the round starts again, I get the error shown on the title. When I am testing it, there are no seekers and I am the only one on neutral. This is the case both on the first and next round.

seeker = game.Players:GetPlayers()[math.random(1, #game.Teams.Neutral:GetPlayers())]

#game.Teams.Neutral:GetPlayers()

That means this is 0, the 2nd argument to math.random() can’t be less than the 1st.

instead of using hashtags
use something like this

The # operator only gets the length of the table’s array part. So you’ll need something like

local function len(t)
    local n = 0
    
    for _ in pairs(t) do
        n = n + 1
    end
    return n
end

@be_nj

local function count(dictionary)
    local sum = 0
    for key in pairs(dictionary) do
        sum += 1
    end
    return sum
end

to count items

That’s only necessary for dictionaries, :GetPlayers() returns an array of player instances.

Hey so what I mean is that the variable gets a random player from the team, but then it only works the first time it does it. The second time it does not and provides an error; in both cases, the amount of players in the neutral team is the exact same, and the intermission gives sufficient time for the players to load in, which is why I am confused that the second argument is not detecting the players in the neutral team.

Edit: I fixed it myself. I changed the second argument to game:GetService(“Players”):GetPlayers(). I got this from AlvinBlox (the YouTuber). Also, I changed a variable from local to global; sorry I did not specify I did these things.
