KeyPress function to open shop not working... Where is my error?

Asked 189 views1 answers

So I am practicing my scripting because I just learned Tweening. I tried to make an Inventory script where you press the letter "e" on your keyboard and the GUI comes down to the middle where you can see it but when I press "e" on my keyboard, the GUI won't show up. The output supposedly doesn't say that there is an error... Did I make any mistake in my script? (Down Below)

Script:

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

if player:GetMouse().KeyDown == "e" then

	-- High Position of Frame: {0.068, 0},{-0.781, 0}
	-- Middle Position of Inventory: {0.068, 0},{0.077, 0}

	Inventory = script.Parent.Inventory 
	Inventory.Visible = true
	Inventory:TweenPosition{

		UDim2(0.068, 0, 0.077, 0),
		Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
		Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,
		0.5,
		false
	}
end

Mouse has been superseded by UserInputService and ContextActionService. Always refer to API reference pages to keep up to date with things.

local userInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Inventory = script.Parent.Inventory

userInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.KeyCode = Enum.KeyCode.E then
		Inventory.Visible = true
		Inventory:TweenPosition{
			UDim2.new(0.068, 0, 0.077, 0), --your original script would've worked, all you were missing was .new after UDim2
			Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
		   	Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,
		   	0.5,
		   	false
		}
	end
end)
