Im trying to make the bodyposition move when a certain person says a phrase. Why isnt this working?
This is my script, and nothing pops up about an error in output either
door = game.Workspace.LobbyDoor
local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
End = game.Workspace.EndLob
function test(name)
if player.Name == "koolkid8099, Player" then
player:connect(onChatted)
end
end
function onChatted(msg, recipient, speaker)
local source = string.lower(speaker.Name)
msg = string.lower(msg)
if (msg == "open/lobby") then
door.CanCollide = false
door.BodyPosition.position = End.Position
wait(2)
door.CanCollide = true
end
end
function onPlayerEntered(newPlayer)
newPlayer.Chatted:connect(function(msg, recipient) onChatted(msg, recipient, newPlayer) end)
end
game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(onPlayerEntered)

Firstly, you shouldn't be defining your variables like that. Secondly, game.Workspace:FindFIrstChild("Humanoid") is not going to give you a player. If you gave it a second argument set to true, it'd look through everything within everything for a humanoid, but that's your player's character's humanoid - not the player.
You also don't check strings in that way. In addition, you should probably debounce so that you cant keep opening it when it's already opening.
What you want to do is have an event listener waiting for a player to join, and then waiting for that player to speak, then looping through a table of names to see if it returns true:
admins = {"FlyScript", "koolkid8099", "Player", "etc"}
door = game.Workspace.LobbyDoor
status = "closed"
function nameCheck(name)
local valid
for _, v in pairs(admins) do
if v == name then
valid = true
end
end
return valid
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:connect(function(m)
if nameCheck(player.Name) and m == "open/lobby" and status == "closed" then
status = "opening"
door.BodyPosition.position = game.Workspace.EndLob.Position
door.CanCollide = false
wait(2)
door.CanCollide = true
status = "open"
end
end)
end)
You'd do a similar sort of thing for closing the door.
