Why does this key-hold not holding? You have to keep clicking for it to run.
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
mouse.KeyDown:connect(function (key)
for i, v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
if key == "f" then
for i = 1,2 do
if player.Magic.Value <= player.MagicMax.Value then
player.Magic.Value = player.Magic.Value +1
end
end
end
end
mouse.KeyUp:connect(function (key)
if key == "f" then
end
end)
end)
This is the script. It has no errors. I don't know what I am doing wrong. What it is supposed to do is to increase the magic value as long as the f button is held. Instead it only increases the value by two and it does not continually do it until you let go of f. Instead you have to mash f for it to even go up.

Right now, your logic looks like this:
WHEN F FIRST PRESSED
ADD TO MAGIC
... and that's all.
KeyDown only happens the moment that you begin pressing a key, and right now that's the only time you're adding magic.
This is the design you want:
EVERY MOMENT
IF F IS CURRENTLY DOWN
ADD TO MAGIC
The loop then looks like this:
while wait() do
if F then
player.Magic.Value = math.min(
player.MaxMagic.Value,
player.Magic.Value + 1)
end
end
We simply have to set F to true when a KeyDown happens and false when a KeyUp happens.
Remember that these connections have to happen before the while loop
local F = false
mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
if key == "f" then
F = true
end
end)
mouse.KeyUp:connect(function(key)
if key == "f" then
F = false
end
end)

Problem. If i gain magic and then I stop, when i do it again my magic goes up faster Relampago1204 73 — 8y

The code that I have written does not do that. Can you post your full code, e.g. in a Hastebin link? BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y

The while loop goes AFTER the event code. It does not start or stop depending on the key events. Look at my code -- I do not have the while in the middle of the key functions. BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y
