Hey, @NathanielWood1 welcome to the forums.

Where is msg declared?

const latency = msg.createdTimestamp - message.createdTimestamp;

Here is the error im getting whenever I try to run the command:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'createdTimestamp')
at Object.module.exports.run (/home/runner/MEE10/src/commands/Utility/ping.js:33:25)
at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5)

I see let me look. I am assuming you are using discord.js v13

@NathanielWood1

Took a look at the documentation and I think you are supposed to use message.createdTimestamp instead of msg.createdTimestamp.

Also, why would you subtract it from itself? You could use the following.

new Date().getTime()

And then subtract the message time from it.

alright, I’ll try that, thanks!

Now I am getting another error when running the ping command itself

ReferenceError: client is not defined
at Object.module.exports.run (/home/runner/MEE10/src/commands/Utility/ping.js:37:33)
at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5)

I may be wrong on this one but client on line 23 may be a local variable so you can only use it within the try statement. And that’s why you are getting an error on line 37.
