You really can’t get a normal player from a standard script. However, there are events that detect players, such as PlayerAdded, or Prompt.Triggered, both parameters have the specific player.

From the server’s perspective, there isn’t “the player”, unless of course there’s only one player in the game.
Very generally, a player (client-side) will Fire a RemoteEvent to the server indicating some particular
action by a particular player.
You can get the current players this way:
local plyrsTbl = game.Players:GetPlayers()
