Everytime I try doing this code, it gives me that error.
Here is my local script placed in StarterGui
local tcs = game:GetService("TextChatService")
tcs.OnIncomingMessage:Connect(function(message:TextChatMessage)
if not message.TextSource then return end
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerByUserId(message.TextSource.UserId)
if not player then return end
local properties = Instance.new("TextChatMessageProperties")
properties.PrefixText = tostring("<font color = \"rgb(230, 0, 0)\">["..player.Name..utf8.char(0xE000).."]: </font>")
return properties
end)
That means it’s a write-only property whose value is a function, not an event. So you’ll have to set a function as the value of this property.
local tcs = game:GetService("TextChatService")
tcs.OnIncomingMessage = function(message:TextChatMessage)
if not message.TextSource then return end
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerByUserId(message.TextSource.UserId)
if not player then return end
local properties = Instance.new("TextChatMessageProperties")
properties.PrefixText = tostring("<font color = \"rgb(230, 0, 0)\">["..player.Name..utf8.char(0xE000).."]: </font>")
return properties
end
If you need to do many things when a message is sent, you’ll have to combine them all into one function.
