Right so instead of using mousebutton1click how do I use userinputservices keycodes to connect a function?

#2 
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input,IsChatting)
   if not IsChatting and Input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
      print("Detected Mouse Click using UIS")
   end
end)
#3

Why do you want to do this instead of MouseButton1Click?

#4

Well, i prefer it and it’s easier then making a custom proximity prompt

#5

Did you mean this?

Button.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
   if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
      --do something
   end
end)
#6

Let me explain just say I have a billboard gui which consists of a button when I’m within the proximity of that button and press a keycode It’d carry out a function basically a proximity prompt

#7

You can detect when player presses a certain key like this:

local Key = Enum.KeyCode.E
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gp)
   if gp then return end
   if input.KeyCode ~= Key then return end

   -- do something
end)
#8

Adding on to what @NeoBuilds said, after you check for the input, let’s say if you pressed E, check if their in range of the “proximity prompt” if so, so what you want

#9

Bruh you can do the same prox prompts no need for UIS.

#10

yeah i am aware but proximity prompts are tedious when it comes to making custom 1s

#11

What are you struggling with. I will be very happy to help you. GUI? Events?

#12

I’m just wondering about how i’d be able to detect if someone with a GUI which is enabled is within a certain proximity of a player

#13

Ok

Grab a Prox Prompt and parent it to a child and then make a script in it

local Prompt = script.Parent

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
print("The Prompt was Triggered!")
end)
#14

that’s no where near what i asked for

#15

Maybe something like this:

local Key = Enum.KeyCode.E
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gp)
    if gp then return end
    if input.KeyCode ~= Key then return end
    local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    if not (char.HumanoidRootPart.Position - thePartThePromptIsIn.Position).Magnitude <= dist then return end

   -- do something
end)
