It’s a serverscript, It’s a simple script, when it’s 6 PM it basically gives them a gui.

I tried this before ^

string.sub("Hello!", 1, 2) would return “He” as they are the first two characters in the string.
It’s useful for making: Typewriter effects on UI, and gathering data from strings.

You could also do:
local output = string.split("18:00:00", ":") to have it divide it into 18, 00 and 00.
Then get ‘18’ by doing local A = output[1].

I am telling u to do this:


local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
Lighting:GetPropertyChangedSignal("TimeOfDay"):Connect(function(player)
    print(Lighting.TimeOfDay) 
end

Well this worked though, if it doesn’t work for u then its your game error since it works for me

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()

game.Lighting:GetPropertyChangedSignal("TimeOfDay"):Connect(function()
	print("bingo")
	if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "18:00:00" then
		print("gorilla is cute")
		end
end)

I think it was the admin after all, because now it worked.

41

Oh, Knew it. It was because the admin is a local script so the server wouldn’t see it
