Nothing happens when say /spooky

[fallen warren]

I scripted that when player with that name says /spooky clones a model in replicated storage clone in workspace but nothing really happens

[woeful coral]

scripts?

[woeful coral]

wait

[fallen warren]

k

[woeful coral]

uhh

[torpid gyro]

Is this on a server script

[fallen warren]

yes

[woeful coral]

it makes the model at the location 0,0,0

[fallen warren]

and so?

[woeful coral]

are you checking there

also i dont think messaging service works if you do it on the same server

if im not wrong

[fallen warren]

what do you mean

ofc it works

[woeful coral]

wait

[fallen warren]

waiting

[torpid gyro]

It looks like it should work

[woeful coral]

any errors

[torpid gyro]

Do you know if the function is even called at all?

[grand lantern]

does spooky have a primarypart

[fallen warren]

yes

[fallen warren]

no

thats why im confused

[woeful coral]

did you check in output?

[woeful coral]

or console -> server

[torpid gyro]

@fallen warren

[grand lantern]

do you see spooky in workspace after the function was called?

like in the explorer

[fallen warren]

nope

[fallen warren]

ig

[grand lantern]

wtf

[torpid gyro]

wdym ig

[woeful coral]

WAIT

is the place saved and published

[fallen warren]

yes

i nscript i called it

[fallen warren]

yes

[woeful coral]

is this a server script?

oh

[fallen warren]

and yes

SSS too

[woeful coral]

...

is this ragebait

[torpid gyro]

can you add after when it's cloned

task.defer(function()
    print(clone and clone.Parent)
end)

[fallen warren]

what line

here?

[fallen warren]

no

[torpid gyro]

after when parent is set

[fallen warren]

and nothing happens

[torpid gyro]

it printed nothing?

[fallen warren]

yes

nothing

like nothing rly happens

[torpid gyro]

Most likely because the function never got fired

[grand lantern]

Is the connection to to the function there? Try putting a print at the top of the function

[torpid gyro]

there's a problem not with the function but with the MessagingService part

[hollow temple]

** You are now Level 9! **

[fallen warren]

finally my scripter online im ask him

to see

[grand lantern]

put it in a pcall or sum

local success, err = pcall(function()
MessagingService:SubscribeAsync(EVENT_NAME, function(message)
if message.Data == "spawn" then
spawnSpooky()
end
end)
end)

if not success then
warn("unreal", err)
end

[torpid gyro]

He said there's no error

[fallen warren]

I think yes

but where

[torpid gyro]

Try printing where it tries to check your chat msg

You can test from studio

[torpid gyro]

not important but this looks like it was coded with ai 🥀

[fallen warren]

nope

[mystic meteor]

is this fixed?

i may help if i can

[fallen warren]

not yet

[near granite]

did yall see the fancy scroll discord added

nvm im just delusional

[minor hearth]

issue 1:
-# this might be my idiotness showing
you publish "spawn" to the messaging service, but you listen to EVENT_NAME

issue 2:
-# performance related
instead of checking when a player chats every time, first check if they're an admin and then start listening to the .chatted event

issue 3:
spookyModel might not be a model; check for that

recommandations:

• re-read the documents for MessagingService
• add prints everywhere

[woeful coral]

the second argument is the message not anything useful in this case

[minor hearth]

arg

sorry

i never used that service

buut why do you input it

if it's not useful

[woeful coral]

idk

[minor hearth]

right

if it works, it works

lmao

wait no

[woeful coral]

hmm

maybe users are capitalized wrong?

[tired willow]

@minor hearth we are guy gardener 2000

[minor hearth]

how did you find this

[fallen warren]

ima try

[minor hearth]

good luck

[fallen warren]

me too

if not working ima do admin panel

lol

[minor hearth]

💔

[pearl ocean]

why are you using messagingservice here

the subscribe probably doesn't fire on the same server a message was published

or it may just be studio

the docs will probably say, or you can just test that

[fallen warren]

FINALLY IT WORKS

[pearl ocean]

you're welcome
