Pressing other keys messes up InputEnded

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, i am trying to make a simple script that makes the player sprint, but when in the sprinting state, when i press any keys or mouse buttons it stops the sprinting.

here is an example of what i am talking about

there are no errors, and i believe i have set up the if statements correct, but i might be incorrect
any solutions?

Code


local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Sprinting = false

local Anim = script:WaitForChild("Animation"):Clone()
Anim.Parent = character
local SprintAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Anim)
SprintAnim:AdjustSpeed(0.6)

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, isTyping)
	if UIS:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) and UIS:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift) then
		if Sprinting == false then
			if isTyping then return end
			Sprinting = true
			humanoid.WalkSpeed = 20
			SprintAnim:Play()
		end
	end
end)

UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, isTyping)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W or Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
		if Sprinting == true then
			if isTyping then return end
			Sprinting = false
			humanoid.WalkSpeed = 8
			SprintAnim:Stop()
		end
	end
end)

Any help is greatly appreciated

In the input ended event, Change

if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W or Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then

To

if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then

Thank you that seemed to work, but could you explain to me why my original code doesnt work if you dont mind, im trying to learn

#4

Because with your code, if he leaves the w and clicks on D or any others letter he won’t be able to sprint.

#5

that was the point of the script, so i didnt have to check if the player had momentum and stop the animation from playing, i had it set so if the player stops holding w then if would stop sprintg

#6

I mean if he tried running sideways he won’t be able to, except if he goes diagonally

#7

that was the point, it was made so the i can only sprint while holding w, so i couldnt sprint backwards, only forwards

if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W or input.Keycode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then

thats what originally did, as you can see in the code i gave, but then problems arise when i try to press any other button while sprinting it stop the sprinting state

#10

It’s a bit different just try it

#11

that seems to work, thank you, i didnt think the input.keycode was needed. i appreciate the help alot

#12

It is a weird thing when using or when trying ur code you mean that
Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift ~= nil since you didn’t specify what it was related to, so if you said

if text == "aa" or "bb" then
print("ABC")
end

It will always print even if the text wasn’t aa since
or "bb" means if bb ~= nil, I should have explained it like that earlier, sry for that.
