Hello, I am making a hiding spot exiting function using the user input service, But I encountered a problem with the code, it doesn’t work and the output doesn’t say anything.
== LocalScript ==
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
if UserInputService.KeyboardEnabled then
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
game.ReplicatedStorage.GoOutLocker:FireServer()
print("E")
end
end)
end
if UserInputService.TouchEnabled then
local UnhideButton = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Screen").Mobile
UnhideButton.Visible = true
UnhideButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game.ReplicatedStorage.GoOutLocker:FireServer()
end)
end
end)
end)
Can anyone fix this problem, I would appreciate it.
Greetings!
I`ve noticed some issues with your code, so I edited it to solve them.
Here it is
-- Services
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
-- UIs
local UnhideButton = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Screen"):WaitForChild("Mobile")
-- Variables
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
print("Pressed \'E\'!")
game.ReplicatedStorage.GoOutLocker:FireServer()
end
end)
if UserInputService.TouchEnabled then
UnhideButton.Visible = true
UnhideButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game.ReplicatedStorage.GoOutLocker:FireServer()
end)
end
Make sure that this is running on a local script, and put it on StarterPlayer > StarterCharacterScripts or StarterPlayerScripts to take effect and run.
local GoOutLockerEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.GoOutLocker
GoOutLockerEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
print("Signal!")
end)
Make sure this one is on a Server-side script, ServerScriptService would be a great place.
If you want to discuss why your code didn’t run, I am happy to explain it for you.
Have a nice day
Aha, I am glad you asked.
You did yield the code to run once an event is triggered.
That event was a player being added,
The script runs after the player is already added, and the event is already triggered before the script runs.
So the script just misses the event and waits for another player to enter and then waits for his character to load.
But since you are doing that in a place testing only with 1 player entering (I guess), no second player is entering after you. so it will just yield there.
I hope you find this helpful, I tried to simplify it as much as I can
