how do I make a system message appear for everyone at the same time?
I have this script that runs system messages at different times. If I put it in a local script, each player gets it at a different time, but if I put it in a normal script, it doesn't work at all. Is there anyway to fix this? Here is the script: It gives this error when its in a normal script. https://gyazo.com/bad11f3082d741c6e5fe9290a7b9c740
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
wait()
while true do
if game.Workspace.PlayerCount.Players.Value <= 5
then
game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
Text = "Waiting for at least FIVE players to join..",
Color = Color3.new(100, 100, 0),
Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansLight,
FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size18,
print("made it here lol")
})
wait(10)
end
wait()
if game.Workspace.PlayerCount.Players.Value >= 5
and game.Workspace.game.CanCollide == true
then
game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
Text = "Welcome to the annual HUNGER GAMES",
Color = Color3.new(100, 0, 0),
Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansLight,
FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size18,
})
player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Forest green")
wait(10)
game.Workspace.game.CanCollide = false
game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
Text = "If you don't know how to play, read the description!",
Color = Color3.new(0, 100, 0),
Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansLight,
FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size18,
})
wait(10)
game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
Text = "Selecting random arena...",
Color = Color3.new(100, 100, 530),
Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansLight,
FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size18,
})
wait(5)
game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage", {
Text = "Arena selected. Prepare to enter the game. May the odds be ever in your favor.",
Color = Color3.new(322, 100, 0),
Font = Enum.Font.SourceSansLight,
FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size18,
})
wait(20)
local Pos = player.Character:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()
player:LoadCharacter()
player.Character:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(Pos)
if player.Character:FindFirstChild("ForceField") then
player.Character["ForceField"]:Destroy()
wait(1)
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.tp:FireServer()
end end
end
end)

One way you could do this is to use RemoteEvents. Start by inserting a RemoteEvent into ReplicatedStrorage. Next create a script inside of Workspace or ServerScriptService and reference the RemoteEvent: Note All the code below is untested
local RemoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvent
You could then check if something has happened in the game. Note: It must be something to do with all players so that when this becomes true they will all see the message at the same time. After the condition is true you can fire it to the client
Here is an example:
local RemoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvent
local Toggle = false
while true do
Toggle = true
wait(120)
Toggle = false
end
while wait(0.1) do
if Toggle then
RemoteEvent:FireClient()
end
end
Now it's time to edit your LocalScript. You can use the RemoteEvent in the same way a normal event is used. Instead of PlayerAdded for instance you would type OnClientEvent (For the client):
local RemoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvent
RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
--Message stuff
end)
One other problem is that when you connected your PlayerAdded event you used connect not Connect. Hopefully this help!
