In the previous tutorial, we went over how commands are parsed, and setting up the main parts. So far, your setup should look something like this.
Inside the Main script, add this code.
return function(con)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
for _, v in pairs(config["Banned"]) do --ban handling, *optional*
if player.Name == v or player.UserId == v then
player:Kick("You are banned!")
end
end
--execute commands
player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
if msg:sub(1,1) == config["Prefix"] or msg:sub(1,1) == ":" then
msg = msg:sub(2) --break off the first part of the message
local args = string.split(msg, " ")
local commands = require(script.Parent.Modules.Commands) --we'll add this next
end
end)
end)
end
What we’re doing here is parsing the command, which I explained in part 1. Now inside of the Modules folder, create a ModuleScript called Commands. Now type this.
return { --return a table of all of the commands
{
name = "walkspeed", --name of command, whats used to execute it
aliases = {"speed", "ws"}, --other words used to execute it
level = 1, --admin level. 0 = player, 1 = moderator, 2 = admin, 3 = owner (at least in my system, you're free to add more like vip and headadmin)
execute = function(player, args) --the function that runs when called
end,
}
}
That is the basic template of a command. Now, let’s go back into our Main script, and execute the command!
return function (con)
local config = require(con)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
for _, v in pairs(config["Banned"]) do --ban handling, *optional*
if player.Name == v or player.UserId == v then
player:Kick("You are banned!")
end
end
--execute commands
player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
if msg:sub(1,1) == config["Prefix"] or msg:sub(1,1) == ":" then
msg = msg:sub(2) --break off the first part of the message
local args = string.split(msg, " ")
local commands = require(script.Parent.Modules.Commands) --we'll add this next
for i,command in pairs(commands) do
if args[1]:lower() == command.name then
command.execute(player, args)
end
for i,alias in pairs(command.aliases) do
if args[1]:lower() == alias then
command.execute(player, args)
end
end
end
end
end)
end)
end
Now, writing the function to execute it.
if args[3] then
for _,v in pairs(GetPlayer(player, args)) do --GetPlayer function is explained next
v.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = tonumber(args[3])
end
end
The GetPlayer function returns the player. Instead of "me", it would return the player. Or instead of "all", it would return every player in the game. Keep in mind that when you return something, it ends the function. You can put it in another module, or put it in a function above.
function GetPlayer(player, args)
if args[2] then
if args[2] == "me" then
return {player}
elseif args[2] == "all" then
local players = {}
for _,v in pairs (game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
table.insert(players, v)
end
return players
else
for _,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if string.sub(string.lower(player.Name), 1, string.len(args[2])) == string.lower(args[2]) then
return {v}
end
end
end
end
return {player}
end

I hope instead of copying the code, you learn something new. I enjoy making these tutorials. Please leave any questions, feedback, or ideas. Thank you for reading!
