(SERVERSCRIPT) I'm trying to get the player in a serverscript, but it just breaks the script again. Any idea what's wrong and how to fix it? No errors, not anything.

PlayerAdded only fires when a player joins the game. You are trying to find a player that is already in the game, hence why calling PlayerAdded doesn't work.
