Hello, I use a custom chat with scaling size and position for my game, Expert Skydiving. It used to work really good, with no bugs or anything, but now, it's acting weird. (I didn't do anything on it) The topmost message is smaller than the size which it should be.

I'm pretty sure this is a fault on Roblox's side. Because I tried putting the scripts and everything to an empty place, reverting my game's version in a time when it used to work and making the chat again. Every time, the same result...

Please help me about this, because I have no idea what is wrong...

You are using the scrolling bar not correctly.

Do you want it to be like this?:https://www.roblox.com/games/644202366/GUI

If you want to make it look exactly how i made it: local textSize = 20 ScrollingBar Size: ######################### can change it to whatever it fits better ScrollingBar CanvasSize: UDim2.new(0,0,0,textSize) --This is the important part. MessageText(I suppose this is inside the ScrollingBar) Size: UDim2.new(1,0,0,textSize) MessageText.TextScaled = false --Turn this off. MessageText.TextWrapped = true --Keep this on. MessageText.TextSize = textSize MessageText.Position = UDim2.new(0,0,0,(#ScrollingBar:GetChildren()-1)*MessageText)

"The topmost message is smaller than the size which it should be. "

I've actually been having this problem in my game too.

I think it is a ROBLOX problem, I haven't been able to find a solution either.

Again, you shouldn't use the Scale proprety when you're using a scrolling bar.

The only thing I want to know about the custom chat is that I want the chat to support the color changes if you own vip.Like if anyone gets a vip name tag they would be the color of the text only but, I want the name of the player to have a color like.

Example:
A player has a vip name tag and a other player has it too and one person's name is blue and the other person is red.But,I don't know how to do that.If you guys can tell me how to do this I would thank that.

Did you make this yourself? Because if you didn't, we would not be confident you'd know how to use our help.

Yes, I did the custom chat, also prevented spam so nobody can't spam and added
and added colorful into it, and each player would get different colors but, for those who has vip are just going to get plain yellow for their nametag D: i just need to know how to make vip players get different colors like non vip members.

You need to specify what vip is in your script then just label.TextColor3 = Color3.new(yellow)
