Would this properly run?
`game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() .KeyDown:connect if string.lower (key) == "m" then Instance.new('Hint', Workspace) Hint.Text = "Just a test"
end end)`
Is this something that can properly run? "Sorry ahead of time for asking, I'm trying to learn on mobile!!"

You should use the Lua button for multiline code display (it'll look like ~~~~ (newline) code code code (newline) ~~~~~~). The backticks are used for code interspersed with writing (inline code). BlueTaslem 18071 — 10y

No, that would not work. Let's highlight the reasons:
1 | game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() .KeyDown:connect if string.lower (key) == "m" then Instance.new('Hint', Workspace) Hint.Text = "Just a test" end end) |
From just looking at that code, you can see a few things.
- You do not properly use the RbxScriptSignal connection.
- You attempt to access key, a nil value.
- You try to set the Text property of Hint, also a nil value.
Now, let's fix those problems and clean up your code a little.
1 | game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() .KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
2 | if key:lower() == "m" then |
3 | Instance.new('Hint', Workspace).Text = "Just a test"; |
4 | end; |
5 | end); |

Ah, ok. And also how come mine didn't show the actual lines of code? SprocketSoldier 0 — 10y
