I dont know how to use onTouched events, im a little stuck on how to make a keybind for this ball script

Here’s the code:

> --Coded by thespecialnone (for my fighterz easter egg)
> local Services = {
> 	Players = game:GetService("Players"),
> 	Debris = game:GetService("Debris")
> 
> }
> local Settings = {
> 	Kick_Cooldown = 1,
> 	Kick_Force = 20
> }
> local Ball = script.Parent
> local KickSound = Ball:WaitForChild("Kick")
> local IgnoreTable = {}
> 
> Ball.Touched:Connect(function(Part)
> 	local Character = Part.Parent
> 	if not Character then
> 		return
> 	end
> 	local Player = Services.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character)
> 	local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
> 	local Root = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
> 	if not Player or not Humanoid or Humanoid.Health <= 0 or not Root or table.find(IgnoreTable, Player) then
> 		return
> 	end
> 	table.insert(IgnoreTable, Player)
> 	delay(Settings.Kick_Cooldown, function()
> 		if not Player then
> 			return
> 		end
> 		local Position = table.find(IgnoreTable, Player)
> 		if not Position then
> 			return
> 		end
> 		table.remove(IgnoreTable, Position)
> 	end)
> 	local Direction = CFrame.lookAt(Root.Position, Ball.Position).LookVector
> 	if Direction.Magnitude < 0.001 then
> 		return
> 	end
> 	local Velocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
> 	Velocity.Parent = Ball
> 	Velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1, 1, 1) * math.huge
> 	Velocity.Velocity = (Direction.Unit * Settings.Kick_Force) + Vector3.new(0, Settings.Kick_Force /1.05, 0)

So you basically want to run the code when the player presses a key instead of touching the ball, am I correct?

#3

ContextActionService.

#4

yes, very correct
like a keybind or smthing

#5

Take a look at this Input and Camera | Roblox Creator Documentation

#6

my script is not a local script, rather a server sided script

Use a RemoteEvent to send information from the client, and handle visuals on the server.

-- LocalScript
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, processed)
	if processed then return end
	
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
		RS.RemoteEvent:FireServer()
	end
end)

-- ServerScript
local Services = {
	Players = game:GetService("Players");
	Debris = game:GetService("Debris");
	RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
}

local Settings = {
	Kick_Cooldown = 1,
	Kick_Force = 20
}
local Ball = script.Parent
local KickSound = Ball:WaitForChild("Kick")
local IgnoreTable = {}

Services.RS.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(client)
	local Character = client.Character
	if not Character then return end
	local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	local Root = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not client or not Humanoid or Humanoid.Health <= 0 or not Root or table.find(IgnoreTable, client) then
		return
	end
	table.insert(IgnoreTable, client)
	delay(Settings.Kick_Cooldown, function()
		if not client then
			return
		end
		local Position = table.find(IgnoreTable, client)
		if not Position then
			return
		end
		table.remove(IgnoreTable, Position)
	end)
	local Direction = CFrame.lookAt(Root.Position, Ball.Position).LookVector
	if Direction.Magnitude < 0.001 then
		return
	end
	local Velocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
	Velocity.Parent = Ball
	Velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1, 1, 1) * math.huge
	Velocity.Velocity = (Direction.Unit * Settings.Kick_Force) + Vector3.new(0, Settings.Kick_Force /1.05, 0)
	Services.Debris:AddItem(Velocity, 0.2)
	KickSound:Play()
end)

the on touch function still exists, so idk if the script you sent works or not

#10

Try that.

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local function onInputEnded(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
	if gameProcessedEvent then return end
	if inputObject.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
		if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then -- change this to whatever key you want
			print("E")
		end
	end
end

UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(onInputEnded)
#11

if i press e at any point then the script would just print e

#12


thats how the ball works

#13

Follow the instructions in the comments of the script.

#14

oh no, i don’t have a problem with that, my problem was in the first place that i have a touch football script that activates every time you touch the ball, my friend who owns the game wants a keybind script and completly rip out the touch football bit
you got it in this post
