ContextActionService not working as intended

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am relatively new to using ContextActionService hence the reason why this code might be wrong. But currently what it does is when I press the button it starts the “local function Block” and starts from there, however I am not after this. I would like it so that when you press the button it runs the stuff from
“if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin”

Previously the code used “input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.T” where “inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin” but it wasn’t mobile compatible since you cant press the letter t on mobile.

What the script does is that it is part of 3 scripts. this specific script is designed so that when a part is clicked it will run the script and make your character pick up a part. Its designed so that when you press the mobile button it drops the part but it doesnt work. It worked when using input.KeyCode.T but isnt working when I try to switch it to inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin.

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:wait()
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(script.GrabBlockAnim)
local CanGrabBlock = true
local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")

local function Block(plr, block, actionName, inputState, inputObject)
	if CanGrabBlock == true then 
		CanGrabBlock = false
		anim:Play()
		game.ReplicatedStorage.TakeBlock:FireServer(plr, block)
		uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, GameprocessedEvent)
			if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
				game.ReplicatedStorage.ThrowBlock:FireServer(plr, block)
				anim:Stop()
				wait(1)
				CanGrabBlock = true
			end
		end)
	end
end

game.ReplicatedStorage.ClientBlock.OnClientEvent:Connect(Block)
local mobilebutton = ContextActionService:BindAction("ThrowBlock" ,Block,true, Enum.KeyCode.T)
ContextActionService:SetPosition("Interact", UDim2.new(1, -70, 0, 10))

The only things that would get passed into the function with CAS is the ActionName, InputState and inputObject, If you wanted it to pass other things in there you would need to do something like this

local mobilebutton = ContextActionService:BindAction("ThrowBlock" ,function(A, B, C) Block(plr, BlockObj, A, B, C) end,true, Enum.KeyCode.T)
