Why is this script working in studio mode, but not in player mode?

Asked by 6 years ago

I tried making it a LocalScript and it is currently a script. What is wrong with this code blocker script. Why whenever you say the code it doesn't kick you in player mode. It works in studio mode, but in players mode it doesn't work... why?! Please help me quickly because my big game 'Code Hunters II is opening this Friday 7/21/17'

local Blockers = {'hello'}

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:connect(function(newPlayer)
    newPlayer.Chatted:Connect(function(newMessage)
        for index, value in pairs(Blockers) do
            if newMessage == value then
                game.Players.LocalPlayer:Kick("Sorry, you have been kicked from the server. Please do NOT spoil the codes or ruin the other robloxians experience. You are not banned so you could rejoin.")
            end
        end
    end)
end)

You cannot index LocalPlayer on the server - just use your newPlayer parameter!

local Blockers = {'hello'}
local msg = "Sorry, you have been kicked from the server. Please do NOT spoil the codes or ruin the other robloxians experience. You are not banned so you could rejoin."

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(newPlayer) --Use "Connect"!
    newPlayer.Chatted:Connect(function(newMessage)
        for i, v in pairs(Blockers) do
            --string.lower() comparison so cases aren't an issue
            if newMessage:lower() == v:lower() then
                newPlayer:Kick(msg) --Use "newPlayer" parameter!
            end
        end
    end)
end)

Make sure this is a Script object running on the server - e.g. in Workspace or ServerScriptStorage(preferably the latter).
