how do i make a skript that sends a message to the player without useing /message

Code (Text):

send "your message here" to player

or

Code (Text):

send action bar "action bar text here" to player

https://skriptlang.github.io/Skript/effects.html#EffMessage

 

Command "/help":
trigger:
format slot 0 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
format slot 1 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
format slot 2 of player with book named "&c&lCustom Enchnats" to be unstealable
format slot 3 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
format slot 4 of player with tnt named "&c&lHow To Play" send "How to play" to %player%
format slot 5 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
format slot 6 of player with diamond sword named "&c&lKits" to be unstealable
format slot 7 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
format slot 8 of player with black stained glass pane named "&7" to be unstealable
send "&6&lMessage&8 / &fHey, this is your message"

 

I recommend not to use format slot, use vanilla (set slot & on inventory click) combo instead, because format slot is slow and buggy

 

if you use on inventory click cancel event, it won't be stealable

Please check what actually works with Skript before giving incorrect answers.

You probably need to set your slots as following:

Code (Text):

format slot 4 of player with tnt named "&c&lHow To Play"  to run "command here"

Then you need to make seperate command on your skript that will show them the message.

Code (Text):

command /howtoplay <text>:
  executable by: console
  trigger:
    set {_player} to arg parsed as player
    message "your message here" to {_player}

I encourage you to read some basic stuff on Skripting here https://docs.skunity.com

 

the code i sent, is working. i even tested this and it does.
but i am thinking maybe the OP is asking for a message to be sent from a certain icon u click? if that is the case then yes my code is wrong.
