ForeverDev didn't mention it, but key presses on a keyboard have KeyCodes associated with them because of letter encodings, not because of a generic input ID. Mouse events use their own, well, events.

By the way, I suggest reasearching and using the UserInputService instead of GetMouse for most things. You don't get the problem of KeyDown reserving keys, and you get more flexibility in the form of the Function buttons and the separation of '2' and 'LeftShift'
