local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")

local Usages = ReplicatedStorage.Usage
local Keybinds = require(Usages.Client.Keybinds)


local function MainFunction(actionName, InputState, InputObject)
	if actionName == "Portafab" and InputState == Keybinds[actionName].EnumType then
		require(Usages.Tools[tostring(actionName)])("Start", InputObject)
		
	elseif InputState == Keybinds[actionName].EnumType then
		require(Usages.Tools[tostring(actionName)])("Start", InputObject)
		
	end
	
end

ContextActionService.LocalToolEquipped:Connect(function(a)
	ContextActionService:BindAction(a.Name, MainFunction, false, unpack(Keybinds[tostring(a)]))
end)

ContextActionService.LocalToolUnequipped:Connect(function(a)
	ContextActionService:UnbindAction(a.Name)
end)



-- // Keybind
return {
	Portafab = {
		Enum.KeyCode.Z,
		Enum.KeyCode.X,
		Enum.KeyCode.C,
		Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1,
		
		EnumType = Enum.UserInputState.Begin
	},
	
	["Satchel Charge"] = {
		Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1,
		Enum.KeyCode.E,
		
		EnumType = Enum.UserInputState.Begin
	},
	
	["Cruise Missile"] = {
		Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1,

		EnumType = Enum.UserInputState.Begin
	}
}

-- // First Tool
return function (Action, ActionKey)

	local function Key(Keys)

		if Keys.KeyCode then
			return Keys.KeyCode
		elseif Keys.UserInputType then
			return Keys.UserInputType
		end

	end

	if Action == "Start" then
		print(Key(ActionKey))
	else
		return
	end


end

I’m trying to separate keybinds to a specific tools. but the problem is that it only detects KeyCodes not userInputType

everything works it prints out Enum.KeyCode.Z, Enum.KeyCode.X but other than when I try to click a MouseButton1 I get Enum.KeyCode.Unknown

I’m trying to get:

Enum.KeyCode.Z
Enum.KeyCode.X
Enum.KeyCode.C

AND

Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1

But the code I have in section 3 block it doesn’t detect UserInputType and I have no idea to do it. I have tried using the Enum properties “EnumType” but it doesn’t work.

Do you use UserInputService? e.g:

key = Enum.KeyCode.Z -- set this to any keycode
mousebuttons = Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 -- or whatever is it called
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input) -- this will be called every time player will click something
       if input.KeyCode == key then
             -- ...
       elseif input.UserInputType == mousebuttons then
             -- ...
       end
end)

If the code is bad it’s because I am not on roblox studio right now.

No I’m not going to use UserInputService it’s not good for me to use it on a multiple tools.

#4

Personally I use UserInputService on my tools, and it works really great. Let me think of another method.

#5

The method I’m using is ContextActionService it’s really great to use for performances. Which is why I use it and not js that but it lets me add Mobile Button too. But rn i’m trying to find help how to identify UserInputType and KeyCode.

#6

You could use

player:GetMouse().Button1Up:Connect(function()
        --...
        print("Button 1 has been clicked!")
end)
