Okay so I need this script to find the players name.
Here is what I have:
local function Open(msg)
Player = --This is where I need help
if Player.Name == "AnonymousPain" then
if msg == "Enable Lobby" then
script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, .1, 0)
wait(.1)
script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, .1, 0)
repeat until
script.Parent.Position == Vector3(20.715, 45, 373.685)
end
end
end
If you can help thanks.
To find the player, if you are using chat commands, use the PlayerAdded trigger.
In case you didn't guess, the PlayerAdded trigger is fired when a player enters a server.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
--Code stuffs
end)
So in your case, you would put your function inside this code.
function Open(msg, player)--Local functions don't make sense
Player = player
if Player.Name == "AnonymousPain" then
if msg == "Enable Lobby" then
script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, .1, 0)
wait(.1)
script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, .1, 0)
repeat until
script.Parent.Position == Vector3(20.715, 45, 373.685)
end
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
Open("Put your message here", player)
end)
I didn't put how to detect the message since you said you simply needed to detect the player.
Well it really depends.
Solution 1:
If the script is a local script you can do
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
Solution 2:
If the script is in a GUI you can do it by seeing how many parents there are until StarterGui and then adding one more Parent. i.e. Let's say there's 3 parents we would do
local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
