What? If you want to remove an specific player IN THAT table, you have two ways:

1) table.remove(players, table_index)

2) players[table_index] = nil

-- Where table_index is the position of the table that you want to remove.

I want to remove only one player

v = ...

?

players[v_index] = nil

Insert the player as key:

players[v]=true -- Insert 
  
players[v]=nil -- remove 
  

It it easier to manage.

Require the pairs loop, to loop the list. (not the ipairs)

                    players[v] = v; 
     end 
   -- removing part: 
    players[getPlayerFromName("someNmae")] = nil
