How to get a already pressed key

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Ahoy Everyone, I’m trying to figure out how to press the same key of an already pressed key in the userinputservice. I have a simple script right here

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local emoteWheel = game.StarterGui.EmoteWheel
emoteWheel.Parent = player.PlayerGui

local animation = script.Emotes.Laugh

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(I, E)
	
	if I.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.G then
		emoteWheel.Enabled = true
		end
end)

Hey there! I’m confused as to what you are trying to accomplish. Would you mind elaborating what functionality you are trying to make work with your UI using the key presses?

If you’re trying to get the same key to have 2 functions you could use a simple boolean and if statement. Similar to a debounce.

What do you want to use the G button for? To close the UI? For a completely different function?

Just to close the ui limit TAB

^ garlic has the correct solution you are asking for. However, I think (perhaps incorrectly) that what you are trying to do is press G to open Ui, then press G again to close it. If this is the case, you could do emoteWheel.Enabled = not emoteWheel.Enabled

I totally forgot about this “not” thing, I used to do this all the time with GUI
