The title basically says most of it. I have a chat command which makes you change team to the choosing team, to choose a different team and would love it if when the user said :changeteams it would still change their team to choosing but it’d not show up in the chat.
I have no idea whether this is possible or not, but I’d love to try.
Current code which changes their team:
local teamname = "choosing"
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
if msg == ":changeteams" then
plr.Team = game.Teams:FindFirstChild(teamname)
plr:LoadCharacter()
end
end)
end)
String.sub takes 2-3 arguments, the first being the chat string. The second is the minimum string character, so if I had the string “hello”, using string.sub(“hello”, 2) will return “ello”. If we use the third argument and for example string.sub(“roblox”, 2, 3) that will return “ob”
Now to grab all the words in a string we use string.split ontop of our string.
Like this string.split:(' ') the quotations in the split function are used for if you want to add stuff like comas after each word.
local reduced = string.sub(chat, 2)
local words = string.split(reduced, " ")
if string.lower(words[1] == "changeteams") then
for _,v in next, game:GetService("Teams"):GetChildren() do
if string.lower(v.Name) == string.lower(words[2]) then
plr.Team = v
plr:LoadCharacter()
end
end
end
It’s early for me so if any of that was confusing, reply back to me.
Here are some additional documents on how you can achieve the desired behaviour.
this seems to just change the contents of the string in the script but not in the actual chat itself. do you know how one would apply this new string in the actual chat?
