Dividing the players into 2 teams

[AQika]

As the title says i need some code to loop all the players and divide them into 2 teams, red and blue if the number of players is odd one team should be bigger i dont rlly care

Add all players to a list, shuffle the list, get floor(size of all players/2) and set it to a variable, loop the list, add 1 to a variable, if the previous variable is less than floor(size of all players/2) add to team 1 else add to team 2

Add all players to a list, shuffle the list, get floor(size of all players/2) and set it to a variable, loop the list, add 1 to a variable, if the previous variable is less than floor(size of all players/2) add to team 1 else add to team 2

"and set it to a variable" is not the correct way to say that, the correct way to express setting a variable to a value is "and set a variable to it" or "and store it into a variable" (which is more used in other languages), because you don't set something a value to a variable, you set a variable to a value (assuming that the value is not another variable or a metadata tag).

That said, here is how I would do it:

loop shuffled players:
  add 1 to {_count}
  if mod({_count},2) = 0:
    # red
  else:
    # blue

Note: I'm not sure if shuffled returns actual numbers as indices instead of strings, also not sure how the index replacement works, documentation says it does return numbers but I'm not able to test that right now, try using loop-index instead of {_count} and see how that goes, it might be a string, if so parse it as integer.

This might be what you want:

On join:
set {_teamid} to a random integer between 1 and 2
if {_teamid} is 1:
set {team::%player%} to "red"
if {_teamid} is 2:
set {team::%player%} to "blue"
wait 0.1 seconds
send "&eCongrats! You got assigned to team %{team::%player%}%"

If you prefer players to only be sorted once, you can add "first" on line 1 right after "on"

I dont want random chances, i want half of the players into the red team and half into blue team

            loop all players:
                add loop-player to {alive::*}
                set {respawnCounter::%loop-player%} to 3
                if {teamChooser} is true:
                    add loop-player to {teamRed::*}
                    send "&cYou have been recruited to the red team." to loop-player
                    set {teamChooser} to false
                    teleport loop-player to {redSpawn}
                if {teamChooser} is false:
                    add loop-player to {teamBlue::*}
                    send "&9You have been recruited to the blue team." to loop-player
                    set {teamChooser} to true
                    teleport loop-player to {blueSpawn}

this is my code right now. it does not work.

Then use every other solution given to you

Honestly I really dont care at this point, You arnt giving us ANY information

This is what i wanted, this worked perfectly but i wasnt home to implement it! i didnt know we can use Modulo

The docs have all the functions, there are a lot of math functions, check them out, also happy to see it was all you needed, np
