How can I make it so if I type not the entire username it can find that player?
I'm trying to make this admin script and I'm trying to make it so I don't have to type the entire username so If I did typed "marioet77" full username it would work but if I typed "mario" then it wouldn't can you tell me how I could make this happen? Here's the code.
01 | local remoteII = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotezz |
02 |
03 | remoteII.OnServerInvoke = function(plr, CodeBox) |
04 | local args = CodeBox:split(" ") |
05 | if args[1] == "Tools" then |
06 | for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do |
07 | if v.Name:lower():match(args[2]:lower()) then |
08 | function GetTools(a) |
09 | if (a.className == "Tool") then |
10 | a:Clone().Parent = game.Players:FindFirstChild(args[2]).Backpack |
11 | end |
12 | local b = a:GetChildren() |
13 | for i=1,#b do |
14 | GetTools(b[i]) |
15 | end |

It seems you are doing this to a certain extent, but wrong. You need to use string.match, and that's what you're doing. But then if mario matches marioet77 then you assume the player's name is mario. Instead of doing a:Clone().Parent = game.Players:FindFirstChild(args[2]).Backpack or GetTools(game.Players:FindFirstChild(args[2]).PlayerGui.Shh.Handle.Tools), replace game.Players:FindFirstChild(args[2]) with v. You already have the player, and you've confirmed it's the one you're looking for.
