OnChatted Regen Script not working?

Asked 206 views1 answers

Hi, I just created a script which only a certain person can regen a model/part by saying ":regen". When I tried it out, the script did not work. The script is not a LocalScript. It is a in a NormalScript.

-- onChatted regen script by PlayingOBC
Master = "PlayingOBC" -- Player who can use ":regen" command
model = game.Workspace.Regenerator -- Name of the model which needs to be regen.
backup = model:clone() 

function onChatted(msg, recipient, speaker) 

local source = string.lower(Master.Name) 
msg = string.lower(msg) 

if (msg == ":regen") then 
model:remove() 
model = backup:clone() 
model.Parent = game.Workspace 
model:makeJoints() 
end 

end 

function onPlayerEntered(newPlayer) 
Master.Chatted:connect(function(msg, recipient) onChatted(msg, recipient, Master) end) 
end 

game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(onPlayerEntered)

Please let me know what error I did. Thank you for reading/helping! :)

I have made some changes to your script and I have used a different event instead of childadded, I also included some validation as source was not being used. This script will now check against the players name. If you don't need it just remove the validation lines:-

local plrList = {"kingdom5", "Player", "PlayingOBC"} --List of accepted player

local model = game.Workspace.Regenerator --Model Location
local backup = model:clone() --Backup model, but you could just keep a copy in server storage

function regen(msg, plr) --regen function
	-- print("Plr:- " .. plr.Name .. " Said:- " .. msg ) --just for testing
	
	local found = false --stores if the player is found
	
	for i = 1, #plrList do -- loop through all player in the list
		if plrList[i] == plr.Name then found = true break end -- player is in the list so exit the loop to save time and set found to true
	end
	
	if found then -- player is found
		
		if string.lower(msg)  == ":regen" then -- msg comparison
			--action to take here			
			model:remove() 
			model = backup:clone() 
			model.Parent = game.Workspace 
			model:makeJoints() 
		end
		
		
	end	
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function (plr)--new player joined
	plr.Chatted:connect(function (msg, rec) regen(msg, plr) end) --connects players to the regen function
	
end)

Hope this helps
