Set elementData by player name

[Protagonist95]

Give some examples of inserting elementData by knowing player name(inserted by runcode)

Not really good idea cuz if can't find a player on some name, set element data will give a error.

but if you want to continue.. should look like..

  
setElementData(getPlayerFromName("name"),"data",value)

This'll fix the problem:

  
local foundPlayer = getPlayerFromName("name") 
if (foundPlayer  ~= nil) then 
setElementData(foundPlayer ,"data",value) 
end

Yeah i though about it, but as he said with "runcode" i didn't wanted to make a longer code lol
