User input service detecting right mouse button as left mouse button

[loltaco1110 (Amateur_Programmer)]

Trying to detect RMB input, LMB input is detected when I press the RMB.

On below image, I pressed the RMB 4 times. It outputs as LMB (MB1)

My goal for this post is to:
A. Figure out if I am doing something wrong.
B. Figure out if this is a roblox bug.
C. Hardware error?

If you have any information on why this is happening, please help out!
Thanks!

Code Below:

-- Ui toggle & mode enable / disable
		buildModeEnabled = true
		nonInputs_folder:WaitForChild("CoreGui").Value.Enabled = buildModeEnabled

		-- Get mouse inputs while build mode is enabled
		local mouse = local_plr:GetMouse()
		
		-- Editing objects input
		local startClick = nil
		local allowEdit = nil
		
		local connected_Buildmode1 = UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
			
			startClick = os.clock()
			
			while allowEdit == nil do
				task.wait()
			end
			
			if allowEdit == true then
				
				allowEdit = nil
			elseif allowEdit == false then

				allowEdit = nil
				return
			end
			
			warn(input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2, input.UserInputType)
			
			if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then -- Editing / Selecting parts
				
				local hit = mouse.Target
				if hit then
					
					if hit.Parent.Parent.Name == "Objects" then
						
						-- Below put functions for UI input and keybind input for editing objects
						
						local function select_new_object()

							if old_box then old_box:Destroy() end

							local box = Instance.new("SelectionBox")
							box.Adornee = hit
							box.Parent = hit
							box.Color3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 170, 255)

							nonInputs_folder:WaitForChild("EditMenu").Value.Enabled = true
							
							old_box = box
						end	
						
						select_new_object()
						
					end
				end
			end
		end)
		
		-- why does below exist?
		-- no event for click, so I will detect a click myself (click would be mouse down then up right after)
		local connected_Buildmode2 = UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
			
			if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
				
				local delta = os.clock() - startClick
				
				if delta < 0.5 then
					allowEdit = true
				else
					allowEdit = false
				end
			end
		end)

I can’t say for sure as I’ve never had this issue, so I can only say it may just be the hardware. Try maybe using another mouse, or even getting another player to try the same script. If it still occurs, prob a bug.

This is a cut down version of your script focused on just showing the right click.
This is tested and will print: Left mouse click detected! If this isn’t working for you, it’s not the script. It has to be something else …

Script

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

local startClick = nil
local allowEdit = nil

local connected_Buildmode1 = UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	startClick = os.clock()

	while allowEdit == nil do
		task.wait()
	end

	if allowEdit == true then
		allowEdit = nil
	elseif allowEdit == false then
		allowEdit = nil
		return
	end

	if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
		print("Left mouse click detected!")
	end
end)

local connected_Buildmode2 = UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
	if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
		local delta = os.clock() - startClick
		allowEdit = delta < 0.5
	end
end)

Thanks for making it simplified.

For some reason the game still picks up RMB as LMB (note that it eventually fixes itself)

After some spamming

Please note that when I play games, the right click is never detected as left click. So this is a roblox problem, maybe.

I think it may be a roblox bug. Image below describes situation

Re-ordered following code and it started working correctly.

local connected_Buildmode1 = UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
			
			if input.UserInputType ~= Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
				return
			end
			
			startClick = os.clock()

			while allowEdit == nil do
				task.wait()
			end

			if allowEdit == true then
				allowEdit = nil
			elseif allowEdit == false then
				allowEdit = nil
				return
			end
			
			local mouse = local_plr:GetMouse()
			local instance = mouse.Target
			
			if instance then
				if instance.Parent.Parent.Name == "Objects" then
					
					if old_box then old_box:Destroy() end
					
					local box = Instance.new("SelectionBox")
					box.Color3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 170, 255)
					box.Adornee = instance
					box.Parent = instance
					old_box = box
					
					
					
				end
			end
		end)
