How to detect i and o?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m using UIS to detect what a player is typing however I seem to be able to not detect i and o with UIS

Adding acceleration to players
#2

can I see your code? :slightly_smiling_face:

#3 
function TrackInputs()
	TRACKTEXTCONNECTION = UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(i)
		if i.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
			wait(.05)
			if ChantTextLabel.Text == "" and i.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.T then
			else
				local char = UIS:GetStringForKeyCode(i.KeyCode)
				ChantTextLabel.Text = string.gsub(ChantTextLabel.Text,"_","")
				ChantTextLabel.Text = ChantTextLabel.Text..char.."_"
			end
		end
	end)
end

excuse me, what is this? (30s)

#5

ah well its for disconnecting UIS

#6

you’re detecting T key, is that why?

#7

if you are trying to detect when you press “I” or “O”, you should check if i.KeyCode is Enum.KeyCode.I or Enum.KeyCode.O

if i.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.I or i.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.O then

The issue is i and o isn’t even registered as an input

#9

are you saying i and o aren’t keycodes?

#10

Yup when I pressed i and o my print didn’t go off

#11

(the print that I deleted when I posted that code)

#12

They are valid KeyCodes, I don’t know why you are saying it doesn’t work.

do you get any errors in the output?

#14

Nope I have no clue why the input just isn’t registering

#15

Can you show us your code when you test for I and O.

#16 
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(i)
	print(i.KeyCode)
end)
#18

I believe it’s because “i” and “o” are ways to zoom your camera in and out. I have had this same problem with shift when shift lock is on.

How would I fix this though? (30)

#20

I don’t see why you would need those specific keys…why don’t you just use “K” and “L” instead?

#21

Wouldn’t it only not work if they checked for GameProcessedEvent and returned. I’m pretty sure you’d be able to still detect input from reserved stuff.
