ok, so basically I want to detect the playername to a player who triggers a function, so I later can print it out in chat.
I would like to save the playername in a variable or something like that, so I can for example do: chat.AddText(trigger.."ran the command!")
[lua]
concommand.Add("command",function(player)
local name = player:Nick() //Will store the nick player nick name into the var name
if SERVER then
player:SendLua("chat.AddText('"..name.." ran the command')") //In the case that you're running on a singleplayer game or a local MP this will be printed on the player
else
chat.AddText(name.." ran the command") //If this is intended for a dedicated server, then the client i'ts intended to run the command
end
end)
[/lua]

chat.AddText is clientside and concommand.Add is serverside, so your code won't really work. The client doesn't somehow run serverside code just because you're not playing singleplayer

The client doesn't automatically become the client when playing a singleplayer game. The same thing can be achieved with:
[lua]
concommand.Add("command",function(player)
player:SendLua("chat.AddText('"..player:Nick().." ran the command')")
end)
[/lua]
(and then it being run serverside or shared)
(rate dumb and provide no actual input, ok)
