KeyDown LocalScript not executing correctly?
1 | local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | local Mouse = Player:GetMouse() |
3 | Mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
4 | if key == "e" then |
5 | print("e pressed") |
6 | end |
7 | end) |
This LocalScript is cloned and put into PlayerGui when a new player joins, and I've ensured that I'm cloning it correctly and everything and it just seems to refuse to do what I want it to, or seemingly run at all.
Is there some other event I should be using for key presses? I've been stuck trying to get this LocalScript to work for a large part of the day.

Use UserInputService, KeyDown is practically deprecated now.
