When I test it out, it says it find a blacklisted letter but I did not write any of those, I don’t have a lot of explanation I just find it weird that it doesn’t work
if msg:sub(1, 5) == "/pay " then
if string.find(msg:sub(5), "e") or string.find(msg:sub(5), "E") or string.find(msg:sub(5), "-") or string.find(msg:sub(5), ".") or string.find(msg:sub(5), ",") then
print("Found blacklisted letters")
else
print("Work?")
end
end
It’s because string.find is pattern matching. You should use [[]] strings or turn pattern matching off. Additionally, you can use an array of bad characters.
local badCharacters = {
"e"; "E"; "-"; "." ; ",";
}
for _, character in pairs(badCharacters) do
if ( string.find(msg:sub(5), character, 1, true) ) then
print(("Blacklisted character found. Character was %s"):format(character))
return
end
end
print("No blacklisted character")
