Grab a whole sentence from chat

[Scriptly]

I know how to find specific words in chat, but how would I be able to get a whole string of text? 

For example, if I were to check if the chat contained "Hi, what's up.", is there a way to get everything included with it?

"Hi, what's up. Hello how are you doing?"

How about you explain exactly what you are trying to do?

Please elaborate. I am having difficulties in understanding what you are trying to achieve.

To see if a string contains a substring, use String#contains.

To obtain the message from ClientChatReceivedEvent, use ClientChatReceivedEvent#getMessage (the specific method name may be a bit off).

Sorry I didn't elaborate on that.

 

What I want to do is check if the chat contains "You completed the parkour in". Then with that, return the bolded time into a string. I already know how to check if that chat contains text. I'm just having trouble with the second part. 

 

Example: "You completed the parkour in 30 seconds! Try again for a better time!

From that, I know that it'll always say "You completed the parkour in". I want to use that to find the bolded time.

You can use a regex to find connected numbers.

What if it was connected text. Would I still use regex?

Yes.
