Just a quick question, Is there a way to check if text is equal to a player. I'm trying to do something like:
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text == "/kill "..a and a = game.Players:GetChildren() then
script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text = a.." Killed"
end)
But it doesn't work. Any help is appreciated.
###Yes you can. You would be using the string.sub function.
ROBLOX's explanation on that function:
#####Returns the substring of s that starts at i and continues until j; i and j may be negative. If j is absent, then it is assumed to be equal to the length of s. In particular, the call string.sub(s,1,j) returns s until as many characters as j, and string.sub(s, -i) returns a suffix of s with length i.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local textbox = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
for _, v in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
-- loop through players, check if their name is any text after "/kill "
if textbox.Text:sub(7):lower() == v.Name:lower() then
-- if their name is whats after "/kill "
-- code
end
end
end)
