How do I add this special character to user input?
I found this in a script but don't know what to replace instead of "GuiService"
1 | -- -- CHatHotKey is '/' |
2 | -- GuiService:AddSpecialKey(Enum.SpecialKey.ChatHotkey) |
3 | -- GuiService.SpecialKeyPressed:connect(function(key) |
4 | -- if key == Enum.SpecialKey.ChatHotkey then |
So I want to add that "/" character instead of this:
1 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function (key) -- Run function |
2 | if key == "e" then |

GuiService is inaccessible to scripts created by users. If you're trying to detect keyboard input, I'd put a LocalScript inside of StarterGui with this code-
01 | wait() |
02 | local plr = Game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer |
03 | local mouse = plr:GetMouse() |
04 |
05 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
06 | print(plr.Name .. " pressed " .. key) |
07 | if key == "e" then |
08 | -- code |
09 | end |
10 | end) |

I dont think I made my questions clear. I know how to type all that, but how do I replace "E" with "/". As stupid as that sounds if I just put "/" it wont work. Orlando777 315 — 11y

1 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(Key) |
2 | if key:byte() == 37 then -- 37 is the number code for "/" |

I tried key 47, but it works only in studio, not online. and it's in a local script. Orlando777 315 — 11y
