Hi,
I’m trying to make it so that when the player is typing it will show a GUI above their head and as soon as the message is sent or completely removed it will hide the GUI.
it’s not working as intended because so far it only shows the GUI when typing, but does not hide again when I remove my typing or hit send.
StarterPlayerScript:
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local typingIndicatorTemplate = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("TypingIndicator")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")
local typingIndicator = typingIndicatorTemplate:Clone()
typingIndicator.Parent = head
typingIndicator.Adornee = head
typingIndicator.Enabled = false
local function animateDots()
while typingIndicator.Enabled do
local dot1 = typingIndicator:WaitForChild("Dot1")
local dot2 = typingIndicator:WaitForChild("Dot2")
local dot3 = typingIndicator:WaitForChild("Dot3")
dot1.Visible = true
wait(0.3)
dot2.Visible = true
wait(0.3)
dot3.Visible = true
wait(0.3)
dot1.Visible = false
dot2.Visible = false
dot3.Visible = false
wait(0.3)
end
end
spawn(animateDots)
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessedEvent)
if gameProcessedEvent and input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
typingIndicator.Enabled = true
end
end)
local function hideTypingIndicator()
typingIndicator.Enabled = false
end
player.Chatted:Connect(hideTypingIndicator)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gameProcessedEvent)
if gameProcessedEvent and input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Return then
hideTypingIndicator()
end
end)
