The proper way to SendNotification through a NON Localscript?
Hey, I'm trying to make a script send a notification.
function Notify(title,message,duration)
if title and message and duration then
game.StarterGui:SetCore('SendNotification', {
Title = title;
Text = message;
Duration = duration
})
end
end
So that wouldn't work inside a regular script. It has to be fired from a localscript. My case requires me to call it from a script and not a localscript. So far my best aim is to create a localscript with the content to send a notification. Either that or clone a script that already has it. I've tried the clone method that works only in studio but fails inside of the actual game.

Is there a reason you don't want to use local scripts? Vulkarin 581 — 6y

You can use RemoteEvent for that, and make LocalScript use SendNotification when that event is fired.
--LocalScript
local Event = <Path to RemoteEvent>
function Notify(title,message,duration)
if title and message and duration then
game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCore('SendNotification', {
Title = title;
Text = message;
Duration = duration
})
end
end
Event.OnClientEvent:Connect(Notify)
I'm guessing you need to send notification to all players, and for that you can use RemoteEvent:FireAllClients(...) method
--Script
local Event = <Path to RemoteEvent>
function Notify(title,message,duration)
if title and message and duration then
Event:FireAllClients(title,message,duration)
end
end

Is it possible to send to one client? Particularity one that just joined? I.e a welcome message? LucarioZombie 291 — 6y

There's "FireAllClients" and then there's "FireClient(playerName)" so yes. MythicalShade 420 — 6y
