i changed , now i want it to work in a localchat system. see above

this local chat system is made by you fyi.

you mean? executeCommandHandler

split the string, get the first letter in that split, check if it is "/" then after that loop through the table (also if indexValue ~= 1) and use executeCommandHandler

[Bean666]

like this?:

local msg = table.concat({...}, " ") 
if msg:find("/") == 1 and msg:len() > 1 then 
    -- Command 
    local cmd, params = msg:match("/(%S+)%s*(.*)") 
    return executeCommandHandler(cmd, player, params) 
else 
    -- Message 
    -- ... 
end

yes but I do not have knowledge of patterns.

it should go good

I would use split as it would be easier for me..

[Bean666]

can you show me what you would do as it sounds easier??.

[Anubhav]

  
local checkString = split( message, "" ) 
  
if checkString[ 1 ] == "/" and checkString[ 2 ] then 
    local cmd = "" 
  
    local args = {} 
    local spaceDetected = false 
  
    for i, v in ipairs( checkString ) do 
        if i ~= 1 then 
            if v ~= "" and spaceDetected ~= true then 
                cmd = cmd..v 
            end 
        end 
    end 
    -- to make arugments do one more split with " " 
  
    return executeCommandHandler( cmd, playerWhoWroteCommand, unpack ( args ) ) 
end 
  

you do the args.
