Why doesn't this script work?

plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = plr:getMouse()

function q(key)
    if key == q then
        plr.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
    end
end
mouse.KeyDown:connect(q)

When you press q you're supposed to die. But it doesn't work, any help?

The KeyDown event returns a string, containing the key you pressed. I'll repeat that, a string. You have to compare the key with a string for this to work, and I suggest using string.lower while comparing the key.

plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = plr:GetMouse()

function q(key)
    if key:lower() == "q" then
        plr.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
    end
end
mouse.KeyDown:connect(q)
