Problem while making custom chat

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I was working on making the moderation system but I went into this error:

Unable to cast Instance to int64

All I know about TextResult:GetNonChatStringForUserAsync() is that it needs a userid. I put the player’s userId in then that error came in. I also searched the developer hub, only saw that the user id has to be there.

Here is the code: (using remote events)

local current_time = tick()
game.ReplicatedStorage.ChatStorage.ChatEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,message)
	 if #script.Parent.Parent.Chat_Log:GetChildren() >= 21 then
		for _, object in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Chat_Log:GetChildren()) do
			if object:IsA("TextLabel") then
				object:Destroy()
			end
		end
	end
	if tick()-current_time >= 0.5 then
--filter line
		message = game.TextService:FilterStringAsync(message,player):GetNonChatStringForUserAsync(player.UserId) --error line
		local clone = game.ReplicatedStorage.ChatStorage.PlayerName:Clone()
		clone.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Chat_Log
		clone.Text = player.Name..":"
		clone.Message.Text = message
	end
end)

I was stumped, looked everywhere.

Any help would be appreciated.

TextService:FilterStringAsync() doesn’t take player as an arguement. Try setting the second arguement to the players UserId.

Working now, I must’ve accidently changed that!
