How do I add another text in string.sub?
When I try
01 | local texts ={ |
02 | "TestMessage 1", |
03 | "TestMessage 2" |
04 | } |
05 |
06 | wait(8) |
07 | for i = 1,#texts do |
08 | script.Parent.Text = string.sub(texts,1,i) |
09 | wait(0.1) |
10 | end |
it won't work while it work before I added the second one.
1 | local text = "test message" |
2 |
3 | wait(8) |
4 | for i = 1,#text do |
5 | script.Parent.Text = string.sub(text,1,i) |
6 | wait(0.1) |
7 | end |
Is there any way to fix?

Firstly, I noticed you we're using an Array of Text Strings so before, we can do anything. We will need to require those messages by using a simple method:
1 | for i,v in pairs(Sayings) do -- Gathering all the Messages typed in the Array. |
We will also need to determine how fast the message is typed by using:
1 | for i = 1, #v.Text do -- Determines Typed Amount. |
Now, we can begin on the UI stuff and making the message type out. We can achieve this by using:
1 | script.Parent.Text = string.sub(v.Text, 1, i) -- Type the Message Out |
2 | wait(0) -- This will determine the speed of the text, you can change this to whatever you want. |
That is all that sorted and your final code should look like this:
01 | local UI = script.Parent |
02 | local debounce = false |
03 | local Sayings = { |
04 | {Text = "Hello, I am a test message 1"}, |
05 | {Text = "Hello, I am a test message 2"}, |
06 | {Text = "Hello, I am a test message 3"}, |
07 | } |
08 |
09 | wait(5) -- Wait before Starting |
10 | for i,v in pairs(Sayings) do -- Gathering all the Messages typed in the Array. |
11 | wait(3) -- How long to Wait Before Messages |
12 | for i = 1, #v.Text do -- Determines Typed Amount. |
13 | script.Parent.Text = string.sub(v.Text, 1, i) -- Type the Message Out |
14 | wait(0) -- This will determine the speed of the text, you can change this to whatever you want. |
15 | end |
16 | end |
I hope this helped you out.
