Asked by 3 years ago
Edited 3 years ago
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.Chatted:Connect(function(Message)
        local SplitMessage = Message:split(" ")
        if SplitMessage[1] == "/rank" then
            print("Command Is Correct")
            local NameOfPlayerToGiveRankTo = SplitMessage[2]
            local PlayerToGiveRankTo = game.Players:FindFirstChild(NameOfPlayerToGiveRankTo)
            local RankName = Message:split(NameOfPlayerToGiveRankTo)[2]

            PlayerToGiveRankTo.leaderstats.Rank.Value = RankName
            print(player.Name.." changed "..PlayerToGiveRankTo.."'s rank to "..RankName.."!")
        end
    end)
end)

This is the client side notification

EventsFolder.NotifySender.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(PlayerToGiveRankTo, RankName)
    wait(0.5)
    game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage",{
        Text = "You have changed ".. PlayerToGiveRankTo .."'s rank to ".. RankName .."!";
        Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansBold;
        Color = Color3.fromRGB(85,255,0);
        TextSize = 18;
    })
end)

"PlayerToGiveRankTo" is an Instance (Player) which can be seen in line 07. You cannot concatenate (which in simpler terms means to "put together" pieces to form one string) an Instance with a string.

It seems you are trying to put the players username in the message, so change line 11

print(player.Name.." changed "..PlayerToGiveRankTo.."'s rank to "..RankName.."!")

to

print(player.Name.." changed ".. PlayerToGiveRankTo.Name .."'s rank to "..RankName.."!")
