Hello,
I am wondering how I check if a player has chatted, get their message, and send it to the database, with their username and their message. (I know HTTPService). So if you could just tell me how to get their message and their username (in a normal script preferably)!
Thanks, Ethan
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:connect(function(msg)
-- do stuff with msg and player
end)
end)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) -- grabs the player
plr.Chatted:Connect(function(msg) -- grabs plr message
end) -- end message function
end) -- end playeradded function
I am not 100% sure about a database but Ill give you an example of how to use the functions
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) -- grabs the player
plr.Chatted:Connect(function(msg) -- grabs plr message
if string.lower(msg) == 'hi' then
print(plr.Name.. (' said hi')
end -- ends the if statement
end) -- end message function
end) -- end playeradded function
Hope this helps.

Each player has a Chatted event: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/Player/Chatted. This should point you in the right direction.
Thanks, is there a way to get the players name in a normal script? Or no?
Dude, just send the player to the server via RemoteEvent from the LocalScript.
