How do I use FilterStringAsync() from the service; TextService?
I'm very confused on how to use FilterStringAsync from a Service called, TextService.
Here is the script, NOTE: it's in a server script!
1 | --note; TS = game:GetService("TextService") |
2 |
3 | local other = string.sub(msg,7):upper() |
4 | local filter = TS:FilterStringAsync(other,player.UserId) |
5 | wait(0.2) |
6 | MessageEvent:FireAllClients("[WARNING]: "..filter,BrickColor.new("Crimson").Color) |
For the error, it states that Line 6 has the error. The error is; attempted to index local 'filter' (a userdata value), any help?

What? That's not a function, nor what it even looks like what is being accomplished. hiimgoodpack 2009 — 7y

the Chat service is the only service with filter methods, it can be used for any text not only chat messages.
1 | Chat = game:GetService("Chat") |
2 |
3 | local other = msg:upper():sub(7) |
4 | local filtered = Chat:FilterStringForBroadcast(other,player) |
5 | MessageEvent:FireAllClients("[WARNING]: " .. filter,BrickColor.new("Crimson").Color) |
