Adding chat sections and automatic messages to chat

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

This is probably scripting but how do you add those chat sections/ channels? Also, how do you add that auto-message?

Thanks ahead! :innocent:

Not sure how to make these chat sections but these system messages are easy to make:

Server script:

local RemoteEvent --path to a RemoteEvent

local Messages = {
	"Message1","Message2","Message3",
	"Message4","and etc"
}
local RANDOM_MESSAGE = math.random(#Messages) --will pick a random message out of the messages table
local RANDOM_MESSAGE_TIME = math.random(60,600) --will pick a random time number between 1 - 10 minutes

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	while wait(RANDOM_MESSAGE_TIME) do
		RemoteEvent:FireClient(Player,RANDOM_MESSAGE)
	end
end)

Localscript:

local RemoteEvent --Path to your RemoteEvent
local Name = "Server"

RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Message)
	game.StarterGui:SetCore("ChatMakeSystemMessage",{
		Text = "["..Name.."]: "..Message,
		Color = Color3.fromRGB(255,223,0)
	})
end)

Oh i’m sorry, i’ve just noticed i mistaken i made inside the server script…
Instead of:

RemoteEvent:FireClient(Player,RANDOM_MESSAGE)

You need to do:

RemoteEvent:FireClient(Player,Messages[RANDOM_MESSAGE])

Since RANDOM_MESSAGE only returns a number
And RANDOM_MESSAGE inside of Messages[RANDOM_MESSAGE]
searches the place inside of the Messages table and returns the value that is inside of that table place

Also to enable these chat channels you need to do this:

1) Copy all of these instances:
grafik

2) Past them all into the Chat service:
grafik

3) Open up ClientChatModules and also open up ChatSettings:
grafik

4) Find ShowChannelsBar and set it to true

You don’t need to fork it, you can look at this topic by @colbert2677 to see how to set the chatsettings without forking the module. Changing chat type and other chat settings without forking
