element parent resourceRoot

[Fabioxps]

it is possible to define this parent
 

setElementParent(player,resourceRoot) --server



addCommandHandler("a",function()
    for id, element in pairs(getElementChildren(resourceRoot)) do
        outputChatBox(type(element))-- not return
    end
end)

I don't know if it is possible, but why would you have to do that? 

[Fabioxps]

when I use an Event trigger this player will also receive this call 

I do not want to create a new element and I also do not want to use a loop to get players

As I know, players are children of root and resourceRoot(not sure about this second) by default.

resourceRoot retorna apenas recursos

root retorna todos

I would strongly suggest you to avoid using that. Instead, you can create a dummy element and set it as parent for players that you wish to retrieve later using getElementChildren.

local moderatorElement = createElement( "moderator", "admin" )
if moderatorElement then
    for _, v in pairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        setElementParent ( v, moderatorElement )
    end
end

addCommandHandler("a",
function()
    for id, element in pairs ( getElementChildren ( moderatorElement ) ) do
        outputChatBox ( type ( element ) )
    end
end
)

good optimization good work. You should already know that you can not set this parent
