I used this

‘’-- Function to delete the balls
local function deleteBalls()
local practiceBalls = workspace:FindFirstChild(“PracticeBall”)
if practiceBalls then
– Loop through each ball and delete it
for _, ball in ipairs(practiceBalls:GetChildren()) do
ball:Destroy()
end
end
end

– Listen for chat messages
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:Connect(function(message)
if string.lower(message) == “/clear” then
deleteBalls()
end
end)
end)’’

Also the script in the a tool called PracticeBall which PracticeBall is in server storage i have a script that when the player says bb it goes in to workspace

The reason i really need this script is because lag if there is too much PracticeBalls in the server it could lag so i wanted to make a script that when the player say /Clear it would clear all balls in the workspace.

Why are you putting this in #help-and-feedback:platform-usage-support? Is there a problem with the script that you want help solving? That should go in #help-and-feedback:scripting-support.

That’s all right. What do you need help with?

#5 
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function deleteBalls()
	for _, v in ipairs(Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
		if v.Name == "PracticeBall" then
			v:Destroy()
		end
	end
end


Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.Chatted:Connect(function(message)
		if string.lower(message) == "/clear" then
			deleteBalls()
		end
	end)
end)

I am guessing this has been written with ChatGPT. Here is the corrected code, try to see if this works! :blush:

So this script im using is to delete a tool

The tool name is Practiceball which i have in the serverstorage

In game i want to type a command like /clear to delete the PracticeBall in workspace

The PracticeBall will be in the workspace because i have a script where when i said bb it goes into the workspace

#7

It didnt work the i dont know if the problem is because i have another script that when i say bb the practice ball goes into the workspace im not sure.

#8 
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")


Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.Chatted:Connect(function(message)
		local LowerCaseMessage = string.lower(message)
		if LowerCaseMessage == "/clear" then
			for _, v in ipairs(Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
				if v.Name == "PractiseBall" then
					v:Destroy()
				end
			end
		end
	end)
end)

This should work. Let me know if it does not.

No error in the out put at all just a bunch of error plugins

#10

Try the edited code above, and see if that works for you.

#11

I see that you’ve have done a typo with practiseball being the typo i fixed it but its still not clearing the ball

#12

have u tried the code here as this works for me…

#13

Yes it doesnt work for me just for more detail the script is inside of the practiceball

#14

Can you show the tool in server storage and what’s actually in the tool? Or you can give me the place file and I can fix the code for you.

#15

Sure

Can you send me the game files? I don’t think we need to delete the PractiseBall tool.

#17

Okay how do i send it to you the game file?

#18

Press Ctrl Shift and S. Or you can just send me the script of the /bb commnd.

#19

Code like this should work,

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
		if msg == "/clearballs" then
			print("clear")
			for i, v in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
				if v:IsA(objecttype) and v.Name == "name" and v ~= nil then
					v:Destroy()
				end
			end
		end
	end)
end)

This is in a serverscript.

#20

you should have taken into account what happened if the person says /ClearBalls, but this would work too.
