Check In System Error

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am currently working on a check in system for a hotel group I am apart of. The system is set to help you auto fill player names, when you type in the name. The auto fill is what is breaking.
I do have it set to be correct, if the auto fill happens to malfunction, and the typed name is correct, however, it doesn’t seem to work.

targetPlayer is the TextBox the user types the name into
errorMessage is self explanitory
fillPlayer is the auto fill text
plrTable is the folder in RepStorage that has a list of all the players in game

Here is the script 
local suite = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Suite room")
local targetPlayer = script.Parent:WaitForChild("TargetPlayer")
local errorMessage = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Bottom text"):WaitForChild("TextLabel")
local checkInFunction = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("staffFunction")
local fillPlayer = script.Parent:WaitForChild("FillPlayer")
local plrTable = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("plrs")

targetPlayer.Changed:Connect(function()
	if targetPlayer.Text ~= "Username" and targetPlayer.Text ~= "" then
		for i,v in ipairs(plrTable:GetChildren()) do
			if string.match(v.Name,targetPlayer.Text) or string.match(fillPlayer.Text,targetPlayer.Text) then
				targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,255,255)
				fillPlayer.Text = v.Name
			elseif not string.match(v.Name,targetPlayer.Text) and not string.match(fillPlayer.Text,targetPlayer.Text) then
				fillPlayer.Text = ""
				targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0)
				errorMessage.Text = "Invalid Username"
				wait(1)
				errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
			end
		end
		if targetPlayer.Text == fillPlayer.Text or plrTable:FindFirstChild(targetPlayer.Text) then
			targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,255,255)
		end
	end
end)

targetPlayer.FocusLost:Connect(function()
	if not plrTable:FindFirstChild(targetPlayer.Text) then
		fillPlayer.Text = ""
		targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0)
		errorMessage.Text = "Invalid Username"
		wait(1)
		errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
	else
		targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,255,255)
	end
	if targetPlayer.Text == "Username" then
		targetPlayer.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,255,255)
	end
end)

standard.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if targetPlayer.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0) then
		errorMessage.Text = "Please fill in a correct username"
		wait(3)
		errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
	else
		local checkIn = checkInFunction:InvokeServer(targetPlayer.Text,"standard")
		errorMessage.Text = checkIn
		wait(3)
		targetPlayer.Text = "Username"
		fillPlayer.Text = ""
		errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
	end
end)

suite.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if targetPlayer.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0) then
		errorMessage.Text = "Please fill in a correct username"
		wait(3)
		errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
	else
		local checkIn = checkInFunction:InvokeServer(targetPlayer.Text,"suite")
		errorMessage.Text = checkIn
		wait(3)
		targetPlayer.Text = "Username"
		fillPlayer.Text = ""
		errorMessage.Text = "Version: 1.0, Scripted and Created by rooboo14 and Grufftomcat"
	end
end)```

I appreciate all of the help! :slight_smile:

heres what i would do if the user is typing Du then count the letters so thats 2 then search with string.sub each username if its starts the first 2 letters with Du then have a list of those players and maybe then a dropdown menu where you can pick the correct one

here’s an example

local Text = "Du"
local UserList = {}

for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
	if string.sub(v.Name,1,#Text) == Text then
		table.insert(UserList,v)
	end
end

if #UserList >= 1 then
	warn(UserList[1].Name)
end
