I am trying to make a custom proximity prompt, and all is going well EXCEPT the fact that it ISN’T clickable (Which is needed for mobile support).

This should definitely be possible, but I haven’t been able to find any other people who have had the same issue.

Where is the script that handles the pressing???

It’s just a normal proximity prompt that has the style set to custom. I want it to work for all custom proximity prompts in the game, so the script that handles an individual prompt shouldn’t matter.

The actual prompt, ui and stuff is done. It works normally - I just need help with making it clickable/touchable (for mobile users)

Since there’s no MouseButton1Down and MouseButton1Up equivalents events for touch users, i suggest using InputBegan, InputChanged and InputEnded events to handle mobile user input.

Hey there,

I think that ProximityPrompts are clickable for mobile users by default, it has an property called: ClickablePrompt, please make sure it is checked.

Thanks for the help but i’ve managed to find the answer:

All you have to do is make the prompt’s textbutton trigger InputHoldBegin() when the mouse is down and vice versa:

if inputtype == Enum.ProximityPromptInputType.Touch or prompt.ClickablePrompt then
			local button = gui.TextButton

			local buttonDown = false

			button.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
				if (input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Touch or input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1) and
					input.UserInputState ~= Enum.UserInputState.Change then
					prompt:InputHoldBegin()
					buttonDown = true
				end
			end)
			button.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
				if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Touch or input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
					if buttonDown then
						buttonDown = false
						prompt:InputHoldEnd()
					end
				end
			end)

			gui.Active = true
		end
