You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I have 2 scripts that are similar to Jojos Bizzare Adventure; having stands, their attacks can be controlled by typing in the chat a few commands, but there are bugs that i want to fix -
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
LocalScript (placed in StarterPlayerScripts)
local TCS = game:GetService("TextChatService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local standEvents = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("StandEvents")
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
print("Listening for chat commands...")
-- Command dictionary
local chatCommands = {
["Behold.."] = function() standEvents.SummonStand:FireServer() end,
["Back down."] = function() standEvents.DesummonStand:FireServer() end,
["ORA ORA ORAA!!"] = function() standEvents.Barrage:FireServer() end,
["ORAA!!!"] = function() standEvents.HeavyPunch:FireServer() end,
["Take this!"] = function() standEvents.ThrowKnife:FireServer(mouse.Hit.Position) end,
["Ever seen something like this?!"] = function()
local target = mouse.Target
if target then
local targetPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(target.Parent)
if targetPlayer then
standEvents.HeadSlam:FireServer(targetPlayer)
end
end
end,
["Forget about time! No one needs time!"] = function() standEvents.TimeStop:FireServer() end,
["Heh.. Too slow."] = function() standEvents.TimeUnfreeze:FireServer() end,
["Yo! Come here for a sec?"] = function() standEvents.Pose:FireServer() end
}
local function processChatCommand(properties)
local message = properties.Text
print("Processing chat message: " .. message)
if chatCommands[message] then
print("Executing command for: " .. message)
chatCommands[message]()
else
print("No command found for message: " .. message)
end
end
TCS.OnIncomingMessage = processChatCommand
print("Chat command listener hooked.")
The LocalScript does work perfectly; but I don’t think it is firing the Remote Event properly as nothing is being printed despite a print() added in the Script which is below

3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
Tried print statements and they work for the script initialization but not for the chat commands; other hacky ways (like UserInputService) but to no use as they dont work either.
I think it’s probably Remote Events not firing correctly; but ill let you devs decide.
