In short, ContextActionService:BindActivate() just gives you another way of activating:

  • ClickDetector.MouseClick
  • Tool.Equipped (if Tool.ManualActivationOnly is false)
  • Tool.Activated (if Tool.ManualActivationOnly is false)

Basically it fires these 3 with the keys on the device you assigned.

Example:

-- Local script
game:GetService("ContextActionService"):BindActivate(Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard, Enum.KeyCode.E)
-- Click detector script 
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	print("clicked")
end)

This would make it so that when you press E while hovering on the part, it would still work.
