Replace your say hook with this:

EDIT: Explanation below:

local split = {}
local i = 0
for w in txt:gmatch("!?%w+") do
  if (i > 2) then break end
  split[i] = w
  i = i + 1
end

This splits every word the message the player writes has.

txt:gmatch("!?%w+")

returns an iterator which contains each word the original string

txt

has. The weird string

"!?%w+"

is a regex. It means that it matches anything that starts with one or zero "!" (

"!?"

) followed with at least (

"+"

) one or more word characters (

"%w"

). It's tricky but you don't need to memorize it. So every word that matches the regex is returned in the iterator I mentioned before.
Now the for loop goes through every word and stores each word in the array

split

(which is actually a table). So then you can access each word with

split[0]

split[1]

, etc (in order).

elseif (split[0] == "!givePoints") then
    local id = tonumber(split[1])
    local amount = tonumber(split[2])
    if (id ~= nil and amount ~= nil) then
      ms.money[id] = ms.money[id] + amount
      ms.moneyshow(id)
    --else
      -- showError("Wrong arguments (id or amount are not numbers)")
    end
end

This checks if the first word (

split[0]

) is equal to "!givePoints" (what you asked for). If so, then it verifies that

id

and

amount

are numbers with

if (id ~= nil and amount ~= nil) then

. If both are numbers then it adds the amount to the player's money. If at least one is not a number then it does nothing, or you can alternatively show an error message as the comments show. Note that it won't work if you just uncomment the comments because the function showError() may not exist in your script. It's just a placeholder.

This does not have a system of Auto save
therefore every time that you restart the server will automatically erase all the points of all the players.

You can save points by using IO system, or using any other methods to save them into any database. But I'd recommend saving them into the file.
Players can be identified only by their USGN or IP Address and by checking nickname just to make sure if the player receives his points when two players with same IP joins.

By USGN

By IP [and Nickname]

Saving can be proceeded by every point gain, by shutdown hook or by periodical autosave (timer or minute hook).

And loading in join hook.

Since filesystem is relative to the CS2D.exe path. You can make new folder in the game folder or in sys folder.

local file = io.open("sys/pts/saves.txt", "a") -- You can save points into one file or into file which will be named by the usgn or ipaddress.
io.output(file) -- Sets the filesystem to output into this file
io.write("usgn," .. player(id, "usgn) .. "," .. tostring(points[id]) .. "\n")
io.close(file)

Loading can be made by splitting lines and their content and identify the player. But better will be probably using each file for each player.
