DefaultChatSystemChatEvents.SayMessageRequest does not fire player.Chatted

Hello,

So I am trying to make a system where if you press a hotkey it will automatically say something for you so that mobile players and especially younger audiences have the ability to tap a button to say something without typing. I know, I could use a variety of different ways, such as playing a sound, using billboardguis, but I want them to chat specifically.
Basically, here is my script.

game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse().KeyDown:Connect(function(k)
	if k:lower()=="e" then
		print('yes')
		game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").DefaultChatSystemChatEvents.SayMessageRequest:FireServer("I am awesome","All")
	end
end)

There seems to be nothing wrong with it until I use a .Chatted event detector script and it shows that it does not detect automatic chats. This can also be detrimental for things when you want to make a custom filter script, as exploiters can easily bypass them using this remote event.

My enquiry is I need a working solution to this. That’s all.

Sorry for replying after so long. I recently came across this feature and started to learn about it. My solution: why don’t you just add a script to detect when this RemoteEvent gets fired? It seems to work fine for me with both normal messages and messages sent via script.

Your script may look like this:

game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("DefaultChatSystemChatEvents").SayMessageRequest.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, message, recipient)
	print("[" .. player.Name .. "]: " .. message)
end)

You could use game.Players:Chat() but it cannot be used in scripts due to security context.

I found a way to fire Player.Chatted, Here is the script:

local function chat(text)
	local StarterGui = game:GetService('StarterGui')
	local A = false
	local ChatBar = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer:WaitForChild('PlayerGui'):WaitForChild('Chat'):WaitForChild('Frame'):WaitForChild('ChatBarParentFrame'):WaitForChild('Frame'):WaitForChild('BoxFrame'):WaitForChild('Frame'):FindFirstChildOfClass('TextBox')
	A = StarterGui:GetCore('ChatActive')
	StarterGui:SetCore('ChatActive', true)
	ChatBar:CaptureFocus()
	ChatBar.Text = text
    ChatBar.TextEditable = false
	task.wait()
	ChatBar:ReleaseFocus(true)
    ChatBar.TextEditable = true
	task.wait()
	StarterGui:SetCore('ChatActive', A)
end
game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse().KeyDown:Connect(function(k)
	if k:lower()=="e" then
		print('yes')
		chat("I am awesome")
	end
end)
