How do you add a localscript as a command?
I have a local script that works on a player, and I want it to activate on the player who types in the command ":goku me". Yes, this is the goku localscript. Answers are appreciated! Thanks!! P.S Filtering is enabled, and this will work only for certain players.
Attempt:
1 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
2 | if player.Name == "MrNicNac" then |
3 | player.Chatted:connect(function(msg) |
4 | msg = :goku me |
5 | --not sure how to activate the localscript here |
6 | end) |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
Thanks for replying!

You need to catch the command inside of chat. have you forked all/part of chat? I think there's a spot you can add hooks to messages and check if they match your text.
I assume for this you will need the data on the server. So you'll need to have a way to communicate it to the local script, too. To get data back and forth you'll need remote events or remote functions: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Remote_Events_and_Functions
Also, in terms of organization rather than setting up the username check during the playeradded, you can think of it like this:
- when the game starts monitor chats
- every time a chat comes in check the content & the sender
- if they match what you want, send information around to where it's needed.
