Player
A Player object is a client that is currently connected. These objects are added to the Players service when a new player connects, then removed when they eventually disconnect from the server.
The Instance.Name property reflects the player's username. When saving information about a player, you should use their Player.UserId since it is possible that a player can change their username.
There are several similar methods in the Players service for working with Player objects. Use these over their respective Instance methods:
- You can get a table of current Player objects using Players:GetPlayers(); again, use this instead of Instance:GetChildren().
- To detect the addition of Player objects, it is recommended to use the Players.PlayerAdded event (instead of Instance.ChildAdded on the Players service).
- Similarly, you can detect the removal of Player objects using Players.PlayerRemoving, which fires just before the Player is removed (instead of Instance.ChildRemoved which fires after). This is important if you are saving information about the player that might be removed or cleaned up on-removal.

local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
-- Create one leaderstat value
local vScore = Instance.new("IntValue")
vScore.Name = "Score"
vScore.Value = 0
vScore.Parent = leaderstats
-- Add to player (displaying it)

プロパティ
AccountAge
The AccountAge is a Player property that describes how long ago a player's account was registered in days. It is set using the Player:SetAccountAge() function, which cannot be accessed by scripts.
This property is useful for conditionally showing new Roblox players content such as tutorials.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local MAX_AGE_NEW_PLAYER = 7 -- one week
local MIN_AGE_VETERAN = 365 -- one year
-- This function marks a part with text using a BillboardGui
local function mark(part, text)
local bbgui = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
bbgui.AlwaysOnTop = true
bbgui.StudsOffsetWorldSpace = Vector3.new(0, 2, 0)
bbgui.Size = UDim2.new(0, 200, 0, 50)
local textLabel = Instance.new("TextLabel")
textLabel.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0) -- Fill parent
textLabel.Text = text
textLabel.TextColor3 = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
textLabel.TextStrokeTransparency = 0
textLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1
textLabel.Parent = bbgui
-- Add to part
bbgui.Parent = part
bbgui.Adornee = part
end
local function onPlayerSpawned(player, character)
local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")
if player.AccountAge >= MIN_AGE_VETERAN then
mark(head, "Veteran Player")
elseif player.AccountAge <= MAX_AGE_NEW_PLAYER then
mark(head, "New Player")
else
mark(head, "Regular Player")
end
end
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
-- Listen for this player spawning
if player.Character then
onPlayerSpawned(player, player.Character)
end
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
onPlayerSpawned(player, player.Character)
end)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
AutoJumpEnabled
The AutoJumpEnabled property determines whether the Player.Character of a Player using a mobile device will automatically jump when they hit an obstacle. This can make levels more navigable while on a mobile device.
When the player joins the game, the StarterPlayer.AutoJumpEnabled value determines the initial state of this property. Then, this property determines the value of the Humanoid.AutoJumpEnabled property of the Player.Character on spawn. In other words, it is possible to set the auto-jump behavior on a per-character, per-player and per-game basis using these three properties.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local button = script.Parent
local function update()
-- Update button text
if player.AutoJumpEnabled then
button.Text = "Auto-Jump is ON"
else
button.Text = "Auto-Jump is OFF"
end
-- Reflect the property in the player's character, if they have one
if player.Character then
local human = player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if human then
human.AutoJumpEnabled = player.AutoJumpEnabled
end
end
end
local function onActivated()
-- Toggle auto-jump
player.AutoJumpEnabled = not player.AutoJumpEnabled
-- Update everything else
update()
end
button.Activated:Connect(onActivated)
update()
CameraMaxZoomDistance
The CameraMaxZoomDistance Player property sets the maximum distance in studs the camera can be from the character with the default cameras.
In other words, it controls the maximum distance the player's camera is allowed to zoom out.
The default value of this property is set by StarterPlayer.CameraMaxZoomDistance. If this value is set to a lower value than Player.CameraMinZoomDistance, it will be increased to CameraMinZoomDistance.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.CameraMaxZoomDistance = 50
player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 75
CameraMinZoomDistance
The CameraMinZoonDistance Player property sets the minimum distance in studs the camera can be from the character with the default cameras.
In other words, it controls the minimum distance the player's camera is allowed to zoom in.
The default value of this property is set by StarterPlayer.CameraMinZoomDistance. If this value is set to a higher value than Player.CameraMaxZoomDistance it will be decreased to CameraMaxZoomDistance.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.CameraMaxZoomDistance = 50
player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 75
CameraMode
The CameraMode property sets the player's camera mode, defaulting to third person.
Third Person
In the default third person mode (Enum.CameraMode.Classic), the character can be seen in the camera. While in this mode, the default behavior is:
- Players can right-click and drag (mouse), tap and drag (mobile), use the secondary thumbstick (gamepad), or press the left/right arrows (keyboard) to rotate the camera around their character.
- When a player moves their character, it faces in the corresponding movement direction.
- Players can zoom in and out freely, even to first person on full zoom in.
First Person
In first person mode (Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson), the player's camera is zoomed all the way in. Unless there is a visible GUI present with the GuiButton.Modal property set to true, moving the mouse, tap-dragging on mobile, or using the secondary thumbstick on a gamepad will rotate the camera around the character.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson
CanLoadCharacterAppearance
The CanLoadCharacterAppearance Player property determines whether the character's appearance will be loaded when the player spawns. The default value of this property is set by StarterPlayer.LoadPlayerAppearance.
If true, the character will load the appearance of the player corresponding to the player's Player.CharacterAppearanceId.
If false, the player will spawn with a default appearance - a grey character model without any hats, shirts, pants, etc.
Attempting to set the property after the character has spawned will not change the character, you must call Player:LoadCharacter() to load the new appearance.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.CanLoadCharacterAppearance = false
Character
The Character property contains a reference to a Model containing a Humanoid, body parts, scripts, and other objects required for simulating the player's avatar in-experience. The model is parented to the Workspace but it may be moved. It is automatically loaded when Players.CharacterAutoLoads is true and it can be manually loaded otherwise using Player:LoadCharacter().
Initially this property is nil and it is set when the player's character first spawns. Use the Player.CharacterAdded event to detect when a player's character properly loads, and the Player.CharacterRemoving event to detect when the character is about to despawn. Avoid using Object:GetPropertyChangedSignal() on this property.
Note that LocalScripts that are cloned from StarterGui or StarterPack into a player's PlayerGui or Backpack respectively are often run before the old character model is replaced, so Player.Character may refer to the old model whose Parent property is nil. Therefore, in a LocalScript under StarterGui or StarterPack, it is advisable to make sure the parent of Character is not nil before using it, for example:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")local player = Players.LocalPlayerlocal character = player.Characterif not character or character.Parent == nil thencharacter = player.CharacterAdded:Wait()end
CharacterAppearanceId
This property determines the user ID of the account whose character appearance is used for a player's Player.Character. By default, this property is the Player.UserId, which uses the player's avatar as they have created it on the Roblox website.
Changing this property to the user ID of another account will cause the player to spawn with that account's appearance (hats, shirt, pants, etc).
Games can also toggle whether or not a player's character appearance is loaded in game by changing the StarterPlayer.LoadCharacterAppearance property.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local disguiseCommand = "/disguise "
local function onPlayerChatted(player, message)
if message:sub(1, disguiseCommand:len()):lower() == disguiseCommand:lower() then
local input = message:sub(disguiseCommand:len() + 1)
local id = tonumber(input)
if not id then -- Number failed to parse, maybe they typed a username instead
pcall(function() -- This call can fail sometimes!
id = Players:GetUserIdFromNameAsync(input) -- Fetch ID from name
end)
end
if id then
-- Set character appearance then respawn
player.CharacterAppearanceId = id
player:LoadCharacter()
else
-- We couldn't get an ID from their input
end
end
end
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
player.Chatted:Connect(function(...)
onPlayerChatted(player, ...)
end)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
DevCameraOcclusionMode
Defines how the default camera scripts handle objects between the camera and the camera subject. Set by StarterPlayer.DevCameraOcclusionMode and can't be changed for individual players.
The default value is Zoom (0). See Enum.DevCameraOcclusionMode for a list of available modes.
DevComputerCameraMode
The DevComputerCameraMode property determines the manner in which a player moves their camera when using a device with a mouse and keyboard. See Enum.DevComputerCameraMovementMode for a description of each camera control mode available. This property cannot be set using a LocalScript (it must be set on the server using a Script).
The default value of this property is determined by StarterPlayer.DevComputerCameraMovementMode.
The word "Computer" in this property name refers to non-TouchEnabled, non-GamepadEnabled devices.
When set to UserChoice, a player can choose between any control mode (except Scriptable) in the Roblox game settings. In general, it's a good idea to allow players to choose their control mode to maximize accessibility.
It's possible to create a custom control scheme by setting this property to Scriptable.
This property doesn't affect players using a touch enabled device. See Player.DevTouchCameraMode instead.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
-- Set the player's camera movement mode on computers to classic
player.DevComputerCameraMode = Enum.DevComputerCameraMovementMode.Classic
DevComputerMovementMode
The DevComputerMovementMode property determines the manner in which a player moves their character when using a device with a mouse and keyboard. See Enum.DevComputerMovementMode for a description of each movement control mode available. This property cannot be set using a LocalScript (it must be set on the server using a Script).
The default value of this property is determined by StarterPlayer.DevComputerMovementMode.

This property doesn't affect players using a touch-enabled device. See Player.DevTouchMovementMode instead.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
-- Set the player's movement mode on mobile devices to a dynamic thumbstick
player.DevComputerMovementMode = Enum.DevComputerMovementMode.DynamicThumbstick
end)
DevEnableMouseLock
This property determines if a player is able to toggle Mouse lock by pressing Shift. A player can disable the mouse lock switch in Roblox's game settings. By default, this property is set to the value of StarterPlayer.EnableMouseLockOption. This can be set server-side during run-time by using a Script. It can not be set client-side.
When mouse lock is enabled, the player's cursor is locked to the center of the screen. Moving the mouse will orbit the camera around the player's character, and the character will face the same direction as the camera. It also offsets the camera view just over the right shoulder of the player's character.
Note that shift-lock related APIs are in the process of being deprecated, so it's recommended to use UserInputService.MouseBehavior instead to lock the mouse.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function toggleMouseLock(player)
player.DevEnableMouseLock = not player.DevEnableMouseLock
if player.DevEnableMouseLock then
print("Mouse lock is available")
else
print("Mouse lock is not available")
end
end
local function onPlayerChatted(player, message, _recipient)
if message == "mouselock" then
toggleMouseLock(player)
end
end
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
player.Chatted:Connect(function(...)
onPlayerChatted(player, ...)
end)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
DevTouchCameraMode
The DevTouchCameraMode property determines the manner in which a player moves their camera when using a TouchEnabled device. See Enum.DevTouchCameraMovementMode for a description of each camera control mode available. This property cannot be set using a LocalScript (it must be set on the server using a Script).
The default value of this property is determined by StarterPlayer.DevTouchCameraMovementMode.
When set to UserChoice, a player can choose between any control mode (except Scriptable) in the Roblox game settings. In general, it is a good idea to allow players to choose their control mode to maximize accessibility.
It's possible to create a custom control scheme by setting this property to Scriptable.
This property doesn't affect players who aren't using a touch-enabled device. See Player.DevComputerCameraMovementMode instead.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
-- Set the player's camera movement mode on mobile devices to classic
player.DevTouchCameraMovementMode = Enum.DevTouchCameraMovementMode.Classic
DevTouchMovementMode
The DevTouchMovementMode property determines the manner in which a player moves their character when using a TouchEnabled device. See Enum.DevTouchMovementMode for a description of each movement control mode available. This property cannot be set using a LocalScript (it must be set on the server using a Script).
The default value of this property is determined by StarterPlayer.DevTouchMovementMode.
When set to UserChoice, a player can choose between any control mode (except Scriptable) in the Roblox game settings. In general, it's a good idea to allow players to choose their control mode to maximize accessibility.
It's possible to create a custom control scheme by setting this property to Scriptable.
This property doesn't affect players who aren't using a touch-enabled device. See Player.DevComputerMovementMode instead.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
-- Set the player's movement mode on mobile devices to a dynamic thumbstick
player.DevTouchMovementMode = Enum.DevTouchMovementMode.DynamicThumbstick
end)
DisplayName
The DisplayName is a Player property that contains the display name of the authenticated user associated with the Player object. Unlike usernames, display names are non-unique names a player displays to others. If the Roblox user has not chosen one, the property will read the same as the Name property.
Note:
- Since display names are non-unique, it's possible for two players in a single instance to have identical names. If you need a globally unique identifier for a player, use Player.UserId (which is static) or Player.Name (which is the current Username) instead.
- Characters generated with Player.LoadCharacter or by the Roblox engine will have their Humanoid.DisplayName property assigned to the Player.DisplayName property.
- Display names may have unicode characters in the string. See UTF-8 for more information on how to work with strings with unicode characters.
FollowUserId
The FollowUserId is a Player property that contains the Player.UserId of the user that a player followed into the game. If the player did not follow anyone into the game, this property will be 0. This property is useful for alerting players who have been followed by another player into the game.
You can get the name of the player followed using this user ID and the Players:GetNameFromUserIdAsync() function.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local function onPlayerAdded(newPlayer)
if newPlayer.FollowUserId == player.UserId then
local hint = Instance.new("Hint")
hint.Parent = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
hint.Text = "You were followed to this game by " .. newPlayer.Name .. "!"
task.delay(3, function()
if hint then
hint:Destroy()
end
end)
end
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
GameplayPaused
The GameplayPaused property indicates if the player is currently in a pause state in a place with StreamingEnabled activated. It is set on the client but replicated to the server. To determine the pause status, you can utilize this property.
See also:
- Workspace.StreamingEnabled which controls whether content streaming is enabled
- Workspace.StreamingIntegrityMode and Enum.StreamingIntegrityMode for more details on when gameplay is paused.
HealthDisplayDistance
The HealthDisplayDistance Player property sets the distance in studs at which this player will see other Humanoid health bars. If set to 0, the health bars will not be displayed. This property is set to StarterPlayer.HealthDisplayDistance by default.
If a Humanoid's health bar is visible, you can set the display type using Humanoid.DisplayDistanceType.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.HealthDisplayDistance = 0
player.NameDisplayDistance = 0
LocaleId
The LocaleId Player property shows the locale id that the local player has set for their Roblox account. It holds a string with the two letter code (for example, "en-us") for the locale.
This can be used to determine the geographic demographic of your game's player base, and is also the locale that will be used for automatic localization (see GuiBase2d.AutoLocalize) of in-experience content. This property allows access to the player's locale from the server.
See also LocalizationService.RobloxLocaleId, the locale ID used for localizing internal content. This will be a different value when Roblox does not yet internally support the local player's set locale.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
print(player.LocaleId)
MembershipType
This property can only be read from to determine membership (it cannot be set to another membership type). It holds a Enum.MembershipType enum of the account's membership type.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
if player.MembershipType == Enum.MembershipType.Premium then
-- Take some action specifically for Premium members
end
NameDisplayDistance
The NameDisplayDistance StarterPlayer property sets the distance in studs at which this player will see other Humanoid names. If the property is set to 0, names are hidden. This property is set to StarterPlayer.NameDisplayDistance by default.
If a Humanoid's health bar is visible, you can set the display type using Humanoid.DisplayDistanceType.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
player.HealthDisplayDistance = 0
player.NameDisplayDistance = 0
Neutral
The Neutral property determines whether the player is on a specific team.
- When true, the player is not on a specific team. This also means that the Player.Team property will be nil and the Player.TeamColor will be white.
- When false, the player is on a specific team. The Player.Team property will correspond to the Team that the player is on, as will the Player.TeamColor.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
if player.Neutral then
print("Player is neutral!")
else
print("Player is not neutral!")
end
ReplicationFocus
The ReplicationFocus Player property sets the part to focus replication around a Player. Different Roblox systems that communicate over the network (such as physics, streaming, etc) replicate at different rates depending on how close objects are to the replication focus.
When this property is nil, it reverts to its default behavior which is to treat the local player's character's PrimaryPart as the replication focus.
This property should only be set on the server with a Script, not a LocalScript. Note that this property does not change or update network ownership of parts.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local PLAYER_NAME = "polarpanda16"
local player = Players:WaitForChild(PLAYER_NAME)
local part = Instance.new("Part")
part.Parent = workspace
part.Name = "ReplicationFocusPart"
part.Anchored = true
player.ReplicationFocus = part
RespawnLocation
If set, the player will respawn at the given SpawnLocation. This property can only be set through Lua and must contain a reference to a valid SpawnLocation, which must meet the following criteria:
- Descendant of Workspace
If RespawnLocation is not set to a valid SpawnLocation then the default spawning logic will apply. For more information on this see the page for SpawnLocation.
Alternatives to RespawnLocation
- A Player will spawn from SpawnLocations belonging to their team. In some cases it may be simpler to change the player's Player.Team instead.
- Implement your own custom spawn logic using PVInstance:PivotTo() to manually move the Player.Character.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function addSpawn(spawnLocation)
-- listen for the spawn being touched
spawnLocation.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local character = hit:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
if character then
local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
if player and player.RespawnLocation ~= spawnLocation then
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
-- make sure the character isn't dead
if humanoid and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Dead then
print("spawn set")
player.RespawnLocation = spawnLocation
end
end
end
end)
end
local firstSpawn
-- look through the workspace for spawns
for _, descendant in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if descendant:IsA("SpawnLocation") then
if descendant.Name == "FirstSpawn" then
firstSpawn = descendant
end
addSpawn(descendant)
end
end
local function playerAdded(player)
player.RespawnLocation = firstSpawn
end
-- listen for new players
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(playerAdded)
-- go through existing players
for _, player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
playerAdded(player)
end
Team
The Team property is a reference to a Team object within the Teams service. It determines the team the player is on; if the Player isn't on a team or has an invalid Player.TeamColor, this property is nil. When this property is set, the player has joined the Team and the Team.PlayerAdded event fires on the associated team. Similarly, Team.PlayerRemoved fires when the property is unset from a certain Team.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local teamPlaying = Teams.Playing
local teamSpectators = Teams.Spectating

end
local function onPlayerAdded(player)

TeamColor
The TeamColor property determines which team a Player is associated with according to that Team's Team.TeamColor. Changing this property will change Player.Team according to whichever team has the same BrickColor for their Team.TeamColor. If no Team object has the associated TeamColor, the player will not be associated with a team.
It's often a better idea to set Player.Team to the respective Team instead of using this property. Setting this property often leads to repetition of the same BrickColor value for a certain team across many scripts; this is something you want to avoid when adhering to the "Don't Repeat Yourself" (DRY) principle.

UserId
The UserId is a Player property that contains a read-only integer that uniquely and consistently identifies every user account on Roblox. Unlike the Instance.Name of a Player, which may change according the user's present username, this value will never change for the same account.
This property is essential when saving/loading player data using GlobalDataStores. Use a player's UserId as the data store key so that each player has a unique key.

ClearCharacterAppearance
The ClearCharacterAppearance function removes all Accessory, Shirt, Pants, CharacterMesh, and BodyColors from the given player's Player.Character. In addition, it also removes the T-Shirt Decal on the player's torso. The character's body part colors and face will remain unchanged. This method does nothing if the player does not have a Character.
It does not remove t-shirts, head meshes, or faces.

DistanceFromCharacter
The DistanceFromCharacter Player function returns the distance between the character's head and the given Vector3 point. It returns 0 if the player has no Player.Character.
This is useful when determining the distance between a player and another object or location in game.
If you would like to determine the distance between two non-player instances or positions, you can use the following:
local distance = (position1 - position2).magnitude
パラメータ
The location from which player's distance to is being measured.
戻り値
The distance in studs between the player and the location.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
for _, player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
print(player:DistanceFromCharacter(Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)))
end
GetJoinData
Returns a dictionary containing information describing how the Player joins the experience. The dictionary contains any of the following fields:
Key | Value Type | Description |
---|---|---|
SourceGameId | number | The DataModel.GameId of the experience the Player teleported from. Only present if the player teleports to the current experience and if a server calls the teleport function. |
SourcePlaceId | number | The DataModel.PlaceId of the place the Player teleported from. Only present if the player teleports to the current place and a server calls the teleport function. |
ReferredByPlayerId | number | The Player.UserId of the player who invited the current player to the experience. Use this data to identify the referrer and trigger reward logic. |
Members | array | An array containing the Player.UserId numbers of the users teleported alongside the Player. Only present if the player teleported as part of a group. |
TeleportData | variant | Reflects the teleportData specified in the original teleport. Useful for sharing information between servers the player teleports to. Only present if teleportData was specified and a server calls the teleport function. |
LaunchData | string | A plain or JSON encoded string that contains launch data specified in a deep link URL or ExperienceInviteOptions.LaunchData. |
GetJoinData and TeleportData
If a server initiates the Player's teleport, the dictionary that this method returns includes the player's teleport data. The Player:GetJoinData() method can only be used to fetch teleport data on the server. To fetch the data on the client, use TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData().
Unlike TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData(), Player:GetJoinData() only provides teleport data that meets the following security criteria:
- It's guaranteed to have been sent by a Roblox server in the past 48 hours.
- It's guaranteed to have been sent with this Player.
- The SourcePlaceId and SourceGameId are guaranteed to be the place and universe the data was sent from. This means you can verify the teleport data came from an approved place.
As this data is transmitted by the client, it can still potentially be abused by an exploiter. Sensitive data such as player currency should be transmitted via a secure solution like Memory Stores.
戻り値
A dictionary containing PlaceId and UserId values (see table in description).

GetMouse
The GetMouse Player function returns the Mouse being used by the client. The player's mouse instance can be used to track user mouse input including left and right mouse button clicks and movement and location.
The UserInputService service provides additional functions and events to track user input - especially for devices that do not use a mouse.
Note:
- This item must be used in a LocalScript to work as expected online.
- Following an update in July 2014, the mouse's icon can now be set with this method.

local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local function onButton1Down()
print("Button 1 is down")
end
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(onButton1Down)
GetNetworkPing
GetNetworkPing returns the isolated network latency of the Player in seconds. "Ping" is a measurement of the time taken for data to be sent from the client to the server, then back again. It doesn't involve data deserialization or processing.
For client-side LocalScripts, this function can only be called on the Players.LocalPlayer. This function is useful in identifying and debugging issues that occur in high network latency scenarios. It's also useful for masking latency, such as adjusting the speed of throwing animations for projectiles.
戻り値
HasAppearanceLoaded
The HasAppearanceLoaded Player function returns whether or not the appearance of the player's Player.Character has loaded.
A player's appearance includes items such as the player's Shirt, Pants, and Accessories.
This is useful when determining whether a player's appearance has loaded after they first join the game, which can be tracked using the Players.PlayerAdded event.
戻り値
A boolean indicating whether or not the appearance of the player's character has loaded.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
local loaded = player:HasAppearanceLoaded()
print(loaded)
while not loaded do
loaded = player:HasAppearanceLoaded()
print(loaded)
task.wait()
end
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
IsVerified
Returns a boolean value indicating that player's verification status. When true, the player is verified. Verification includes, but isn't limited to, non-VOIP phone number or government ID verification.
When implementing IsVerified, exercise caution to ensure that the implementation does not inadvertently block all unverified users.
Note that the method can only be called on the backend server. Calling it client-side results in an error. Additionally, this method will always return false in Studio.
戻り値
A boolean indicating whether the player is verified.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
print(player:IsVerified())
end
for _, player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
onPlayerAdded(player)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
Kick
The Kick() method allows an experience to gracefully disconnect a client and optionally provide a message to the disconnected user. This is useful for moderating abusive users. You should only allow specific users whom you trust to trigger this method on other users.
Calling this method on a Player with no arguments disconnects the user from the server and provides a default notice message. Calling this method on a Player along with a string as the first argument replaces the default message with the provided string.
When using this method from a LocalScript, only the local user's client can be kicked.
パラメータ
The message to show the user upon kicking.
戻り値
Move
The Move Player function causes the player's character to walk in the given direction until stopped, or interrupted by the player (by using their controls).
This is useful when scripting NPC Humanoids that move around a map - but are not controlled by an actual player's input.
Note that the function's second argument indicates whether the provided Vector3 should move the player relative to world coordinates (false) or the player's Camera (true).
パラメータ
The Vector3 direction that the player should move.
A boolean indicating whether the player should move relative to the player's camera.
戻り値
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

-- The player will move until they are 50 studs away from the camera's position at the time of running
localPlayer:Move(Vector3.new(0, 0, -50), true)
SetAccountAge
The SetAccountAge function sets the Player.AccountAge of the player in days.
It is used to set the Player property that describes how long ago a player's account was registered in days.
This does not set the age of the player on the account, but the age of the account itself relative to when it was first created.
パラメータ
The age of the account in days.
戻り値

SetSuperSafeChat
This method sets whether or not the player sees chat filtered by TextService:FilterStringAsync() rather than normal chats.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")local player = Players.LocalPlayerplayer:SetSuperSafeChat(true)
Regardless of whether a player has filtered chat enabled, all chat should be filtered by TextService when broadcast to other players or on the player's own screen. TextService:FilterStringAsync() returns a TextFilterResult object that can be filtered differently according to the message's intended use.
パラメータ
A boolean indicating whether or not the player sees filtered chat.

GetRankInGroup
The GetRankInGroup Player function returns the player's rank in the group as an integer between 0 and 255, where 0 is a non-member and 255 is the group's owner.
Using this in a Script, as opposed to a LocalScript, will not get you the most up-to-date information. If a player leaves a group while they are in the game, GetRankInGroup will still think they're in that group until they leave. However, this does not happen when used with a LocalScript.
This is because the method caches results, so multiple calls of GetRankInGroup on the same player with the same group ID will yield the same result as when the method was first called with the given group ID. The caching behavior is on a per-peer basis: a server does not share the same cache as a client.
パラメータ
The groupId of the specified group.
戻り値
The player's rank in the group.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
if player:GetRankInGroup(2) == 255 then
print("Player is the owner of the group, 'LOL'!")

GetRoleInGroup
The GetRoleInGroup Player function returns the player's role in the group as a string, or Guest if the player isn't part of the group.
Using this in a Script, as opposed to a LocalScript, will not get you the most up-to-date information. If a player leaves a group while they are in the game, GetRoleInGroup will still think they're in that group until they leave. However, this does not happen when used with a LocalScript.

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
IsFriendsWith
This function sends a request to the Roblox website asking whether a player is a friend of another user, given the Player.UserId of that user. This function caches results so multiple calls of the function on the same player with the same Player.UserId may not yield the most up-to-date result. This does not happen when used in a LocalScript.
パラメータ
The Player.UserId of the specified player.
戻り値
A boolean indicating whether a player is a friend of the specified user.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

IsInGroup
The IsInGroup Player function sends a request to the Roblox website asking whether a player is a member of a group, given the ID of that group.
Using this in a Script, as opposed to a LocalScript, will not get you the most up-to-date information. If a player leaves a group while they are in the game, IsInGroup will still think they're in that group until they leave. However, this does not happen when used with a LocalScript.
This is because the method caches results, so multiple calls of IsInGroup on the same player with the same group ID will yield the same result as when the method was first called with the given group ID. The caching behavior is on a per-peer basis: a server does not share the same cache as a client.

The groupId of the specified group.
戻り値
A boolean indicating whether the player is in the specified group.

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
LoadCharacter
The LoadCharacter Player function creates a new character for the player, removing the old one. It also clears the player's Backpack and PlayerGui.
This is useful in cases where you want to reload the character without killing the player, such as when you want to load a new character appearance after changing the player's Player.CharacterAppearance.
Note: The function is similar to Player:LoadCharacterBlocking(), but the request is processed asynchronously instead of synchronously. This means other tasks will be able to continue while the character is being loaded, including the rendering of the game and any other tasks. Also, this function can be used in a script, while LoadCharacterBlocking cannot.
After calling LoadCharacter for an individual player, it is not recommended to call it again for the same player until after that player's Player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded event has fired.
Character Loading Event order
Calling the Player:LoadCharacter() with an R15 Avatar fires events in the following order (Note: R6 ordering is different):
- Player.Character sets
- Player.CharacterAdded fires
- Player.Changed fires with a value of "Character"
- Character appearance initializes
- Player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded fires
- Character.Parent sets to the DataModel
- The Character rig builds, and the Character scales
- Character moves to the spawn location
- LoadCharacter returns

RequestStreamAroundAsync
For experiences where instance streaming is enabled, requests that the server stream to the player regions (parts and terrain) around the specified X, Y, Z location in the 3D world. It is useful if the experience knows that the player's CFrame will be set to the specified location in the near future. Without providing the location with this call, the player may not have streamed in content for the destination, resulting in a streaming pause or other undesirable behavior.
The effect of this call will be temporary and there are no guarantees of what will be streamed in around the specified location. Client memory limits and network conditions may impact what will be available on the client.
Usage Precaution
Requesting streaming around an area is not a guarantee that the content will be present when the request completes, as streaming is affected by the client's network bandwidth, memory limitations, and other factors.
パラメータ
World location where streaming is requested.
Optional timeout for the request.
戻り値
イベント
CharacterAdded
The CharacterAdded event fires when a player's character spawns (or respawns). This event fires soon after setting Player.Character to a non-nil value or calling Player:LoadCharacter(), which is before the character is parented to the Workspace.
This can be used alongside the Player.CharacterRemoving event, which fires right before a player's character is about to be removed, typically after death. As such, both of these events can potentially fire many times as players die then respawn in a place. If you want to detect when a player joins or leaves the game, use the Players.PlayerAdded and Players.PlayerRemoving events instead.
Note that the Humanoid and its default body parts (head, torso, and limbs) will exist when this event fires, but clothing items like Hats, Shirts, and Pants may take a few seconds to be added to the character. Connect Instance.ChildAdded on the added character to detect these, or wait for the Player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded event to be sure the character has everything equipped.
パラメータ
An instance of the character that spawned/respawned.

CharacterAppearanceLoaded
This event fires when the full appearance of a Player.Character has been inserted.
A Player.Character generally has a range of objects modifying its appearance, including Accoutrements, Shirts, Pants and CharacterMeshes. This event will fire when all such objects have been inserted into the Player.Character.
One use for this event is to ensure all accessories have loaded before destroying them. See below for an example of this.
パラメータ
The Player.Character Model.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onPlayerAddedAsync(player)
local connection = player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded:Connect(function(character)
-- All accessories have loaded at this point
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local numAccessories = #humanoid:GetAccessories()
print(("Destroying %d accessories for %s"):format(numAccessories, player.Name))
humanoid:RemoveAccessories()
end)
-- Make sure we disconnect our connection to the player after they leave
-- to allow the player to get garbage collected
player.AncestryChanged:Wait()
connection:Disconnect()
end
for _, player in Players:GetPlayers() do
task.spawn(onPlayerAddedAsync, player)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAddedAsync)
CharacterRemoving
The CharacterRemoving event fires right before a player's character is removed, such as when the player is respawning.
This event can be used alongside the Player.CharacterAdded event, which fires when a player's character spawns or respawns. For instance, if you would like to print a message every time a player spawns and dies:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onCharacterSpawned(player)
print(player.Name .. " is spawning")
end
local function onCharacterDespawned(player)
print(player.Name .. " is despawning")
end
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
onCharacterSpawned(player)
end)
player.CharacterRemoving:Connect(function()
onCharacterDespawned(player)
end)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
This event is only concerned with the Character of a Player. If you instead need to track when a player joins/leaves the game, use the events Players.PlayerAdded and Players.PlayerRemoving.
パラメータ
An instance of the character that is being removed.
コードサンプル
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterRemoving:Connect(function(character)
print(character.Name .. " has died.")
end)
end)
Chatted
The Chatted event fires when a Player types a message and presses enter in Roblox's provided chat bar. This is done using some Lua bindings by the default chat script. You can prevent players from chatting by using StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled() and disabling the Chat Enum.CoreGuiType.
Chat Commands
Using this event and some string manipulation functions like string.sub() and string.lower(), it is possible to create chat commands, even with arguments like player names. Usually, commands are prefixed such as heal PlayerName. To check for a prefix in a string, use string.sub() on the message to check a substring of the message: string.sub(message, 1, 6) == "/heal " (note the inclusion of the space). Then, extract the rest of the command using string.sub() again: string.sub(message, 7) will be equal to the player name. Check if that player exists, and if so, perform the command's action (in this example, healing them). Check the code samples for examples of chat commands.
Filtering
The message text fired with this event is unfiltered. If you are displaying player input like chat to other players in any form, it must be filtered using Chat:FilterStringAsync(). Keep this in mind when creating your own chat systems; if your game does not properly filter chat it may have moderation action taken against it.
パラメータ
The content of the message the player typed in chat.
Deprecated. For whisper messages, this was the Player who was the intended target of the chat message.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
local function onChatted(message)
-- do stuff with message and player

Idled
This event fires approximately two minutes after the game engine classifies the player as idle. Time is the number of seconds that have elapsed since that point. The event continues to fire every 30 seconds for as long as the player remains idle.
This event only fires in client scripts, not server scripts; use a RemoteEvent to notify the server of idle players.
Roblox automatically disconnects players that have been idle for at least 20 minutes, so this event is useful for warning players that they will be disconnected soon, disconnecting players prior to those 20 minutes, or other away from keyboard (AFK) features.
To track how often automatic disconnects occur, try correlating this event with occurrences of Players.PlayerRemoving.
パラメータ
The time in seconds the player has been idle.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local function onIdled(idleTime)
print(`Player has been idle for {idleTime} seconds`)
if idleTime > 900 then
-- warn player that they've been idle for 15 minutes
-- and will be disconnected in another 5
end
end
Players.LocalPlayer.Idled:Connect(onIdled)
OnTeleport
Fired when the TeleportState of a player changes. This event is useful for detecting whether a teleportation was successful.
What is the TeleportState?
When a teleportation request is made using TeleportService, there are a series of stages before the Player is teleported. The current stage is represented by the Enum.TeleportState value which is given by OnTeleport. See below for a practical example of this.
パラメータ
The new Enum.TeleportState of the Player.
The name of the spawn to teleport to, if TeleportService:TeleportToSpawnByName() has been used.
コードサンプル
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local playerOnTeleport = player
player.OnTeleport:Connect(function(teleportState, _placeId, _spawnName)
if teleportState == Enum.TeleportState.Started then
print("Teleport started (" .. playerOnTeleport.Name .. ")")
elseif teleportState == Enum.TeleportState.WaitingForServer then
print("Teleport waiting for server (" .. playerOnTeleport.Name .. ")")
elseif teleportState == Enum.TeleportState.InProgress then
print("Teleport in progress (" .. playerOnTeleport.Name .. ")")
elseif teleportState == Enum.TeleportState.Failed then
print("Teleport failed! (" .. playerOnTeleport.Name .. ")")
end
end)
end)
