Ok. But,

for index, players <----  (is there a list of what i can fill in here?)  in ipairs( something ) do 

Thanks.

[Castillo]

for index, player in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
    -- Do something 
end 

That's what you meant?

[ThePCGuy]

I meant, is there a list of where can i get the index of, now you will get all the players.

[Castillo]

I don't understand your question.

[ThePCGuy]

for index, player <--- is this a element ? 

[Castillo]

Depends on the table, 'for' is used for loops in general, not just for tables with player elements.

If you mean that is it necessary to be "index, player" then No, You can but whatever you want .

for k,v ... 
for index,player ... 
for i, anything ...

Oh thanks

If its easy for you, could you make a tutorial where you create any kind of system with tables and loops and lots of detailed explanations, that would be great!
