Alright so It appears I am having a bit of an error… This is where I am at in my code

local mytab={}
local combomoves={
    [122]=true;
    [122]=function(number)
        if number==1 then
            print("Hi")
        elseif number==2 then
            print("Hey")
        elseif number==3 then
            print("Finished")
        end
    end;
    [122]=true;
    [122]=true;
    [122]=true;
}
local timer = time()
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe)
    if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard and not gpe then
        local keyPressed = input.KeyCode
        if combomoves[122] then
            if time() - timer < .5 and time() - timer > .2 then
                if #mytab < 3 then
                    timer = time()
                    table.insert(mytab,input.KeyCode)
                    local combo = #mytab
                    combomoves[122](combo)
                end
            end
        end
    end
end)```

ignore the multiple [122]=true;

What’s the error

#24

I can’t find out why the key isn’t being printed I think its the way I’m handling the keycode but I’m not quite sure. No errors are coming out because It’s not registering the key being pressed

#25

So the issue lies in your table. After you declare the function to value 122 in your table, you proceed to reassign that index to true three times, effectively overwriting the function.

oof alright thanks. But I also kind of came to a more simple solution with a small amount of experimenting. The only thing it lacks is a timer which I will add.

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService");

local newtab = {};

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(inp,gpe)
	if inp.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard or inp.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and not gpe then
		print(inp.KeyCode, inp.UserInputType)
		if #newtab < 3 then
			if inp.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
		table.insert(newtab,inp.KeyCode)
			elseif inp.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
				table.insert(newtab, inp.UserInputType)
		end
		if newtab[1] == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and newtab[2] == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and newtab[3] == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
			print'SwordCombo'
		end
		else 
			table.remove(newtab,1)
			table.remove(newtab,2)
			table.remove(newtab,3)
		end
		print(newtab[1],newtab[2],newtab[3])
	end
end)
