Simple Question About String Splitting, My script wont work! Help?
I'm making a script where when you say "Show" and the player's name. It's prints the second value in that string. For example, if I said "show thebeans202" The output should print the beans202. Although, It's NOT printing.. nor is it outputting errors. Any help greatly appreciated.
Here's my script.
local Player = game:GetSerivce('Players').LocalPlayer
local debounce = false
Player.Chatted:Connect(function(message)
message = message:lower()
if message:find('show') then
local tabl3 = message:split(" ")
print(tabl3[2])
end
end)

One problem is there's a typo. It says serivce instead of service. hoyhyo 2 — 4y

What a coincidence, I needed to do something like this just now. Here's the script that I used, this should work. The value newv is the second part of the command or tabl3[2]
If this doesn't work, I would consider changing this to a Script, not a local script and just use PlayerAdded to get the LocalPlayer who chatted
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local debounce = false
Player.Chatted:Connect(function(message)
if message:find('show') then
local tabl3 = message:split(" ")
local newv
if tabl3[1] == 'show' then
print(tabl3[2])
newv = tabl3[2]
end
end
end)

Works for me, make sure your spelling and caps are right, because it is caps sensitive. nogoaway6 20 — 4y
