I made a script to change a characters walk speed change when they press a button. Help anyone?
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
Mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
if key:byte() == 1 then
if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed == 30 then
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
elseif game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed == 16 then
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 30
end
elseif key:byte() == 2 then
if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed == 30 then
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
elseif game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed == 16 then
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 30
end
end
end)
that is my code. I'm essentially trying to make a character run when right ctrl or left ctrl are pressed. Thanks In Advance.

Like kingdom said, using mouse for user input is deprecated. We now use UserInputService.
This uses a LocalScript in PlayerGui or StarterCharacterScripts.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until player.Character -- Wait until character isn't nil
local char = player.Character
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local inputService = game:GetService('UserInputService')
-- UserInputService is the new way to do anything with user input now
-- Easy way to store and check for variables is to use a table Dictionary
local keys = {
['Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift'] = true;
['Enum.KeyCode.RightShift'] = true;
}
inputService.InputBegan:connect(function(inputType)
if inputType.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
-- Make sure you're checking for KeyBoard input only.
local makeKeyCodeAString = tostring(inputType.KeyCode)
if keys[makeKeyCodeAString] then
local speed = hum.WalkSpeed <= 16 and 30 or 16
-- Ternary operator
-- speed is equal to this
--[[
if hum.WalkSpeed <= 16 then
speed = 30
else
speed = 16
end
--]]
hum.WalkSpeed = speed
end
end
end)
