I'm making a text chat command (/tp [name]) for spectators to teleport to players in the game. The weird thing is that it works in studio, but not in game... What are some reasons for that? Can someone help me out here

not textchatservice?

you’re using chatService.OnIncomingMessage = function(message)

which only works in studio, it wont fire in the game

#

ok yeah I mustve made a mistake when I did it then

#

Alr ty!!

#

So I tried out the chatted event but it doesn't even fire 😭

#

Trtyto print plr

#

Also loop trough the game.Players:GetPlayers to reduce buggs

#

Try to handle the chat part in the server
