Detect any key on keyboard pressed

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I want to detect when any key is pressed on the keyboard and then fire a remote event. I have tried before and it failed.

I only want the key down to be detected if a bool value is set to true and if it is false, I want nothing to happen.

This is what I have currently
(local script)

local plrName = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
local char = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(plrName)
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

char:WaitForChild("IsDead").Changed:Connect(function()
	if char.IsDead.Value == true then
		-- this is where I want to detect any key press
	end
end)

I am totally stuck, I can’t find any pre existing advice on this topic.
tldr: I want to detect when any key on the keyboard is pressed.

#2 
UIS.InputBegan:connect(function(key)
	 print("Pressed: "..key)
end)

If you want to check which key it is, then check if the “key” value is a certain keycode.

edit: sorry I think I pasted the wrong script, I know this works because I’ve used it before.

I think something like this should work

local plrName = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
local char = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(plrName)
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local connection

char:WaitForChild("IsDead").Changed:Connect(function()
	if char.IsDead.Value then
		connection = UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gpe)
			if gpe then return end
			--Code to happen when key is pressed
		end)
	else
		connection:Disconnect()
	end
end)

Create a connection to the InputBegan event when player is dead to listen to key presses and if they are no longer dead, disconnect the event

@Nodehayn Yes you are correct about that, but I’m unsure if @OP is using a custom character respawn handler or just using the default system, so if he’s using the default system, this will not work and another suggestion has to be made

#4

When the player respawns, the connection wont disconnect because char.IsDead would become nil since the character has been parented to nil (destroyed) so this’ll probably just keep making connections.

#5

It has become evident this way of doing things isn’t going to be appropriate, closed.
