basically, I made a rocket launcher, when the rocket hits the other player the self player destroys and then the other one too, then they both are stuck in the air....

What does your code look like?
in the PlayerObject theres a Collide event for the bullet,
Delete Instance Self
Create RespawnSystem
the RespawnSystem has a Alarm for 3 Seconds
Create Player Object at x,y
those are blocks By the way...

Re-reading your original post, I just need to clarify something: is the issue that both the self and other player get destroyed, or that the players are both stuck in the air?
both, when you kill a player every player object gets destroyed then they are stuck in the air.

Please double-check that you don't have accidentially set any block to operate on all obj_player / obj_other_player objects instead of self or other.
Secondly, do you have any collision code in the bullet or the other player object? If there's a bit of code that only destroys the obj_player object, but runs on all clients it will destroy all objects anyways.
UPDATE: I have looked into the sync documentation, I set HP For player and a collide code in the bullet but when it hits the player, the player wont die. i used a code from a comment of the documentation
collide code of bullet:
if owner == gms_self_playerid()
{
other.hp -= 10
instance_destroy()
}

I think you might want a "!=" instead of a "==" there.
Right now it only subtracts health when the bullet was created by the same player. It sounds like you instead want it to subtract health when a player gets hit with a bullet from another player.
now im getting some error...

The <unknown variable> seems to suggest something is wrong with GM itself. If it worked before, and all you changed was == to != it shouldn't give you that error.
when I made != it started to give me the error, when == nothing happened.

What happens if you change it back to ==?
then the player wont die or get any hp removed.

Did you just check that, or answer based on what you remember?
I'm asking to make sure the switch from == to != actually causes the error you're seeing.
the switch from == to != causes the error. and when i set it to == the player wont lose HP or die.

That sounds a lot like a GM:Studio bug. What GM version are you on? Try updating GM:Studio if you're not already on the latest version.
I am at 1.4.8 but It does not want to update to 1.4.9 (Steam) I guess I'll have to wait...
