How to monitor chat?
How would I wait in the chat for someone to say, for example "Pie is cool!".

.Chatted event is what detects chat. However, you'll need to connect it to everyone:
Normal script in ServerScriptService:
01 | function newPlayer(p) |
02 | p.Chatted:connect(function(msg) |
03 | if msg == "Pie is cool!" then |
04 | -- Stuff you want to happen (use p to reference the player who said it) |
05 | end |
06 | end) |
07 | end |
08 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(newPlayer) |
09 | for _,v in pairs (game.Players:GetPlayers()) do |
10 | newPlayer(v) |
11 | end |

1 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
2 | player.Chatted:connect(function(msg) |
3 | if msg=="Pie is cool!"then |
4 | print(player.Name.." chatted \"Pie is cool!\"") |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
7 | end) |
The Chatted event listens to everything a player says.

You didn't connect the early-birds to the function. It's not considered incorrect, but it just means that if a player joins the game before the script is done loading, they won't get any effect when they chat "Pie is cool!". DiamondBladee 135 — 11y

Players don't join before the script is done loading online. 1waffle1 2908 — 11y

That isn't necessarily a true statement. DiamondBladee 135 — 11y

It's true so long as it isn't ran locally. 1waffle1 2908 — 11y
