How can assign a player a random team

[nelmi]

How can I put a random player on a team and all the rest on the other?

hi @nelmi
There is a similar problem with an answer

issue. Setting 2 Teams of Random Players? - Programming & Scripting / Verse - Epic Developer Community Forums (unrealengine.com)

I read it and it doesn’t answer my issue, I’m trying to pick a player from the array and set him to team 1 (simple enough) but I don’t know how to get the other players to team two

Not sure if you managed since you last posted, but you just need to randomly pick a player index and iterate through the list of players and compare each player index. You then just decide which team to move them to.
Here’s an untested snippet.

using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Verse.org/Random }

team_splitter_device := class(creative_device):

    SplitPlayers():void=

        # Retrieve all current players
        Players := GetPlayspace().GetPlayers()

        # Randomly select one player
        RandomIndex := GetRandomInt(0, Players.Length - 1)
        if:
            # Retrieve the teams
            FortTeamCollection := GetPlayspace().GetTeamCollection()
            Teams := FortTeamCollection.GetTeams()
            TeamSolo := Teams[0] # Team 1 will be the solo player
            TeamOthers := Teams[1] # Team 2 will be the others
        then:
            for(PlayerIndex -> Player:Players):
                # Move the randomly selected player to their solo team
                if(PlayerIndex = RandomIndex, FortTeamCollection.AddToTeam[Player, TeamSolo]):
                # Move the other players to the other team
                else if(FortTeamCollection.AddToTeam[Player, TeamOthers]):

Hope that answers your question!
