How to disable all keyboard inputs until it finishes loading?

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

i got a loading screen script where im trying to disable all player controls so the player will not be able to move or press other keys that open other stuff.

i’d like to get someones help on this.

local ModuleScript = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Settings
local Settings = require(ModuleScript)

script.Parent.Parent.Visible = true
script.Parent.Visible = true

local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
local AssetFolder = Settings.LoadingScreen.AssetFolder:GetDescendants()
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local LoadingBarTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.In)



if Settings.LoadingScreen.LoadingBar == true then
	script.Parent.LoadingBar.Visible = true
else
	script.Parent.LoadingBar.Visible = false
end

if Settings.LoadingScreen.RandomizedTextEnabled == true then
	script.Parent.RandomizedText.Visible = true
else
	script.Parent.RandomizedText.Visible = false
end

if Settings.LoadingScreen.DefaultRobloxUI == true then
	game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, true)
else
	game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, false)
end

script.Parent.Elements.Background.Image = Settings.LoadingScreen.BackgroundImage
script.Parent.Elements.TopText.Text = Settings.LoadingScreen.TopText
script.Parent.Elements.BottomText.Text = Settings.LoadingScreen.BottomText



local LoadAssets = #AssetFolder

for i, v in pairs(AssetFolder) do
	ContentProvider:PreloadAsync({v})
	TweenService:Create(script.Parent.LoadingBar.LoadingBar, LoadingBarTweenInfo, {Size = UDim2.new(i/LoadAssets,0,1,0)}):Play()
end

local GradientTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)

TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Parent.UIGradient, GradientTweenInfo, {Offset = Vector2.new(-1,0)}):Play()

print("Assets loaded.")

wait(1)

game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, true)

script.Parent.Visible = false
script.Parent.Parent.UIGradient:Destroy()

script.Parent.Parent.Parent:Destroy()

I think the solution to this might be your solution

How to temporarily disable all character input?

My goal is to disable the all characters input for a small scene. The reason the walkspeed cannot be set to 0 is because the character will be moving/jumping during that cutscene. for _, controller in pairs(game:GetService("ControllerService"):GetChildren()) do controller.Parent = nil end player.PlayerScripts.ControlScript.Disabled = true The first function does not seem to work. The problem with the second one is that the character moves the direction you were heading after it’s enab…

disable the script which handles all of your inputs and do:

repeat task.wait() until game.IsLoaded()
script.Enabled = true

Don’t let the character load into the game

Use the PlayerModule module, and do GetControls

local Controls = require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls()

Controls:Disable() -- Disables controls

Controls:Enable() -- Enables controls

Note: This will not disable UserInputService Just character movements.

How to temporarily disable all character input? - #2 by TheGamer101?

@TheGamer101

You can use ContextActionService to do this. This disables the PlayerActions and works with both Controller and Keyboard.

Edited to fix per @buildthomas’s post

local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local FREEZE_ACTION = "freezeMovement"

ContextActionService:BindAction(
    FREEZE_ACTION,
    function() return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.PlayerActions:GetEnumItems())
)

--to unfreeze

ContextActionService:UnbindAction(FREEZE_ACTION)

Using this will do the exact same thing, as disabling controls.

You could try:

-- Some code used from the quoted post.
ContextActionService:BindAction(
    FREEZE_ACTION,
    function() return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.PlayerActions:GetEnumItems())
)
--  And for keycode inputs

ContextActionService:BindAction(
    FREEZE_ACTION,
    function() return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.KeyCode:GetEnumItems()))
)

This will disable character controls, and all keyboard inputs.

For other input types, just do unpack(Enum.[UserInputType]:GetEnumItems()

for some reason this messed up my tools, like it gets cloned idk how 2 explain

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Hmm, that’s very unusual. I’d just try disabling controls by doing.

@thyswedishviking

Use the PlayerModule module, and do GetControls

local Controls = require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls()

Controls:Disable() -- Disables controls

Controls:Enable() -- Enables controls

Note: This will not disable UserInputService Just character movements.

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

im not able to move my player when i try to enabling, and i used what you told me

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Show me your code, I need more information.

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

local Controls = require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls()


scriptToDisable.Disabled = true

Controls:Disable() -- Disables controls

if Settings.LoadingScreen.LoadingBar == true then
	script.Parent.LoadingBar.Visible = true
else
	script.Parent.LoadingBar.Visible = false
end

if Settings.LoadingScreen.RandomizedTextEnabled == true then
	script.Parent.RandomizedText.Visible = true
else
	script.Parent.RandomizedText.Visible = false
end

if Settings.LoadingScreen.DefaultRobloxUI == true then
	game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, true)
else
	game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, false)
end

script.Parent.Elements.Background.Image = Settings.LoadingScreen.BackgroundImage
script.Parent.Elements.TopText.Text = Settings.LoadingScreen.TopText
script.Parent.Elements.BottomText.Text = Settings.LoadingScreen.BottomText

-- LOAD THE EXPERIENCE

local LoadAssets = #AssetFolder

for i, v in pairs(AssetFolder) do
	ContentProvider:PreloadAsync({v})
	TweenService:Create(script.Parent.LoadingBar.LoadingBar, LoadingBarTweenInfo, {Size = UDim2.new(i/LoadAssets,0,1,0)}):Play()
end

local GradientTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)

TweenService:Create(script.Parent.Parent.UIGradient, GradientTweenInfo, {Offset = Vector2.new(-1,0)}):Play()

print("Assets loaded.")
Controls:Enable() -- Enables controls
scriptToDisable.Disabled = false

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

What do you have scriptToDisable defined as?

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

local scriptToDisable = player.PlayerScripts:FindFirstChild(“AbrirMenu”)

its to disable/enable a script that opens a gui

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Okay. Hhmm, and when the thing is done loading do you get the Assets Loaded print, in console?

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

Yes, and im not able to move

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Interesting, try doing this.

require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")):GetControls():Enable() instead of Controls:Enable() at the end, maybe the Module is updated.

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

at the end worked. Will test now the Tool again because i got no clue on why this is happening.

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Alright, Hopefully it works! (Char Limit)

[ddenyz (wdenyz)]

this is what is happening, do you have any clue? Only happens when disabling/enabling character movement (you can see theres a clone behind the tool of the same tool)

[thyswedishviking (SwedishAeternum)]

Try running this at the end.
game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Backpack, false)
