[Simple] How to use a variable's value as a selector?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi.

I have a variable with a string value, storing the player’s name
local x = plr.Name

I want to select the player’s backpack with the name.
For example, game.Players.x.Backpack

but of course it returns that x is not a valid member of “Players” because it assumes x as the string itself, and not as its value.

Please help.
Sincerely,
