"Returns the player with the specified userId, or nil if that player is not in the game." "nil if that player is not in the game"

@4ef I know the wiki says that but it's not true. I just tried it out with several different IDs and it worked.

You quoted the description of the GetPlayerByUserId function of Players, I sent you a link of the GetUserIdFromNameAsync YieldFunction of Players.
