You're missing an end.

[lua]
hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "testcommand", function( ply, text, public )
text = string.lower( text )
if ( text == "!sp" ) then
if ply:isAdmin() then
ply:Kill()
return ""
end
end
end )
[/lua]

But this code kills the person who runs the chat command if he is an admin, not spawn someone.

James xX i dont think you understand what i want it to do!.

If the player is dead, you know got the red screen, then if the player is afk, i can do !sp then he will spawn!
Thanks for reply!.

I do get what you want, which is why I told you the code you provided kills the person running the chat command, not spawn a player.

This is my code now!:

hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "testcommand", function( ply, text, public )
        text = string.lower( text )
        if ( text == "!kill" ) then
			if GM:PlayerDeath() then
                ply:Kill()
				ply:Alive()
                return ""
        end
end )

Actually i updated my code and it is:

hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "testcommand", function( ply, text, public )
        text = string.lower( text )
        if ( text == "!sp" ) then
			if GM:PlayerDeath() then
				function GM:PlayerSpawn(ply)
					MsgN(ply:Nick() .."has been force spawned!")
                return ""
        end
end )

You probably want something like this:

[lua]
function FindPlayer(info)
local pls = player.GetAll()

-- Find by Index Number (status in console)
for k, v in pairs(pls) do
if tonumber(info) == v:UserID() then
return v
end
end

-- Find by RP Name
for k, v in pairs(pls) do
if string.find(string.lower(v:GetNWString("rpname")), string.lower(tostring(info))) ~= nil then
return v
end
end

-- Find by Partial Nick
for k, v in pairs(pls) do
if string.find(string.lower(v:Name()), string.lower(tostring(info))) ~= nil then
return v
end
end
return nil
end

hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "testcommand", function( ply, text, public )
if ( string.lower( string.sub( text, 0, 2 ) ) == "!sp" and ply:IsAdmin() ) then
local target = FindPlayer( string.sub( text, 4 ) )
if ( target ) then
target:Spawn( )
end
end
end )
[/lua]

Note that the code is untested, I provided it so you can learn the syntax and the method. You should read up on the [URL="http://www.lua.org/pil/"]PIL[/URL] because you seem to lack some understanding in lua syntax.

[EmilGran]

You mean the book? Wich book?
Btw. Thanks for the code!
Is there any gmod thing in that book?

Maybe the [URL="http://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html"]online version[/URL]? And for gmod related stuff, use the [URL="wiki.garrysmod.com"]gmod wiki[/URL], however you should get to grips with the syntax before you go further.

You wrote

if ply:isAdmin() then

It's actually

if ply:IsAdmin() then

Do you see the error?

[Chimpanzee]

I'd recommend doing this command through ULX if you're using ULX. It is unbelievably easier and doesn't require an extra manual function on the playersay hook
