  2. What is the issue? idk how to make it do that.
  3. What solutions have you thought of so far? Searching on YouTube but I didn’t saw anything about it

You’ll need to use ContextActionService | Roblox Creator Documentation or UserInputService | Roblox Creator Documentation and for mobile specifically you’ll want to look into the Touch based events.

I already do it for Pc users but idk how to do it for mobile

Just like for PC you need to hook your move routines to the “key”. In the case of mobile, “keys” are GUI objects like imageButtons or textbuttons etc…They have events like “TouchTap”. Link the event you want to the move routine.

D Script (Right Arrow)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Moving = false
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(keyCode, Chatted)

	if Chatted then
		return
	end

	local HRP = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	if HRP ~= nil and keyCode.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.D then
		Moving = true

		while Moving do
			Character.Humanoid:Move(Vector3.new(0,0,1))
			RunService.RenderStepped:Wait()
		end

	end
end)

UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(keyCode)
	local HRP = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	if HRP ~= nil and keyCode.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.D then
		Moving = false
		Character:MoveTo(HRP.Position)
	end

end)
