Is not a valid member of "Enum.KeyCode"

#1

I want to detect if the pressed key is equal to a value in the parent of the script.
The issue is it gives me the error : is not a valid member of “Enum.KeyCode”

I tried looking on the dev hub but i couldnt find anything that could fix it

local CD = false
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(key,istyping)
	if istyping then
		return
	else
		if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode[script.Parent.Key.Value] then
			if CD == false and game.Players.LocalPlayer.Stats.CursedEnergy.Value >= script.EnergyConsume.Value and game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Modifiers.Stunned.Value == false  then
				local Mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
				CD = true
				local Name = script.Parent.Name
				game.ReplicatedStorage.CursedEnergy:FireServer(script.EnergyConsume.Value)
				game.ReplicatedStorage.BackpackDisable:FireServer()
				game.ReplicatedStorage.Techniques:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Technique.Value):FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Name):FireServer(Mouse.Target)
				script.Parent.Name = script.CD.Value
				for i = 1,script.Parent.CD.Value-1 do
					script.Parent.Name -= 1
					task.wait(1)
				end
				CD = false
				script.Parent.Name = Name
			end 
		end
	end
end)

Which line does the error occur on? That should be displayed in the console.

Are you sure that value isnt “”?

#10

nope, still gave me the error.

#11

perhaps the value isn’t an uppercase letter

if not, make it an uppercase letter

#12

You’re checking for the KeyCode Value, and a KeyCode can’t be a letter, it can only be a number.

I figured it out, after you said that I went to go check if it was or not. Then I remembered i set the key value in a server script, not a local one. Thanks!
