    return

hollow adder anyone pls help

Try debugging to identify where your script is breaking

hollow adder Aug 13, 2025, 2:01 PM

#

static crest Try debugging to identify where your script is breaking

no output or anything

#

when command is run

icy stirrup Aug 13, 2025, 2:34 PM

#

are you new at scripting?

#

look like it doesn't print or warn any thing because when you make a return condition like if...return nil, "..." you doesn't make any output function like print() or warn()

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 2:42 PM

#

icy stirrup are you new at scripting?

I'm assuming so since the script he sent is ai.

icy stirrup Aug 13, 2025, 2:44 PM

#

idk maybe 75%

#

lots of bug and some "dumb" function he made

#

but i dont think he's use ai

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 2:45 PM

#

I'm pretty sure it's ai due to the comments

icy stirrup Aug 13, 2025, 2:47 PM

#

ig he's just copy and paste the ai script and make some stuff with that script

static crest Aug 13, 2025, 2:47 PM

#

fast idol I'm pretty sure it's ai due to the comments

Comments from AI are usually in other places

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 2:47 PM

#

True

#

Maybe he just has a really AI looking comment style

icy stirrup Aug 13, 2025, 2:48 PM

#

no one use game:SetService("Workspace") dude

#

that's weird

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 2:49 PM

#

I mean, he might have just got it from some crappy youtube video as well, which would explain the random minor errors

static crest Aug 13, 2025, 2:50 PM

#

icy stirrup no one use game:SetService("Workspace") dude

I think he just got this script from youtube or any open source resource

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 3:10 PM

#

Oh yeah, I completely forgot to actually help him. Outside of a slight typo where you forget "_" near the beginning, the reason this doesn't work is because player.Chatted doesn't fire on the client

fast idol Aug 13, 2025, 3:25 PM

Anyways, I was too lazy to actually make it any good, but after moving around and removing some of what was already there, I got a working version. Just remove your local script, and replace the normal script's contents with this and it should work:

#

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local EVENT = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("UpdateShowcaseEvent")

-- Allowed users (only these names can change the text)
local ALLOWED = {
["Z6rr"] = true,
["fvuelz"] = true,
}

-- Locate the Showcase part & TextLabel safely
local function getTitleLabel()
-- case-insensitive findShowcase helper
local function findShowcase()
for _, obj in ipairs(Workspace:GetChildren()) do
if obj:IsA("Model") and obj.Name:lower() == "showcase" then
return obj
end
end
return nil
end

local showcase = findShowcase()
if not showcase then return nil, "Showcase model not found in Workspace" end

local titlePart = showcase:FindFirstChild("TitlePart")
if not titlePart then return nil, "TitlePart not found under Showcase" end

-- find first SurfaceGui child (handles any name)
local surfaceGui = nil
for _, child in ipairs(titlePart:GetChildren()) do
    if child:IsA("SurfaceGui") then
        surfaceGui = child
        break
    end
end
if not surfaceGui then return nil, "SurfaceGui not found inside TitlePart" end

-- find the TextLabel
local titleLabel = surfaceGui:FindFirstChild("TitleLabel")
if not titleLabel or not titleLabel:IsA("TextLabel") then
    return nil, "TitleLabel (TextLabel) not found inside the SurfaceGui"
end

return titleLabel

end

-- Event listener

#

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
if typeof(msg) ~= "string" then return end
-- check for leading "!"
if msg:sub(1,1) ~= "!" then return end
-- only allow if the local player is one of the allowed users
if not ALLOWED[player.Name] then
-- optional: show a system chat message (so they know)
return
end

    local raw = msg:sub(2) -- remove the "!"
    local text = raw
    
    local titleLabel, err = getTitleLabel()
    if not titleLabel then
        warn("Couldn't find TitleLabel: " .. tostring(err))
        return
    end

    titleLabel.Text = text
    print(("[Showcase] %s updated the title to: %q"):format(player.Name, text))
end)

end)

you can use '''lua
--Your code
'''

to look more format with code

fast idol Aug 14, 2025, 4:08 AM

#

icy stirrup you can use '''lua --Your code ''' to look more format with code

I'm aware. I purposefully didn't do it for this because it had to be split into multiple messages and would've ended up with weird gaps if I did
