Why would this keydown not work in game but works in studio ?
This is in the starterpack
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.X then
player.Character.Torso.CFrame = CFrame.new(player.Character.Torso.Position.x,player.Character.Torso.Position.y+30,player.Character.Torso.Position.z)
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)

Another simple fix that goes unnoticed by many! Your problem is that this script is firing before the LocalPlayer loads. Therefor the code can't find game.Players.LocalPlayer because it's not there yet! So we need to add a simple loop to yield the script until the LocalPlayer loads.
repeat wait() until game.Players.LocalPlayer --this will allow the rest of the script to activate once the character is fully loaded!
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.X then
player.Character.Torso.CFrame = CFrame.new(player.Character.Torso.Position.x,player.Character.Torso.Position.y+30,player.Character.Torso.Position.z)
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)

Actually! Is your script a Local Script or a normal script? If a it is a normal script change it to a LocalScript! LocalPlayer will not work with a normal script!! minikitkat 687 — 9y
