How would I create Gui Events?

Asked 277 views1 answers

When a user presses a certain key on the keyboard a frame will move up in a jumping motion and fall back down.

I added a cool down and a debounce

These three variables control the bounce method.

I don't know what's wrong with it, but this is my attempt at a jump event. function Bounce(gui)

What do I need to do to fix this? Am I doing anything wrong? I checked the parents too.

local JumpHeight = 0.05
local JumpDuration = 0.5
local JumpCooldown = 1

local box = script.Parent.Box

--Jump
function keyDown(key)
if key == "z" then 

local Jumpable = true

function Bounce(gui)
if not Jumpable then return end
Jumpable = false
local JumpHeight = 0.05
local JumpDuration = 0.5
local JumpCooldown = 1
box:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(gui.Position.X.Offset,gui.Position.X.Scale,gui.Position.Y.Offset,gui.Position.Y.Scale+JumpHeight),"Out","Quad",.5)
wait(JumpDuration)
box:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(gui.Position.X.Offset,gui.Position.X.Scale,gui.Position.Y.Offset,gui.Position.Y.Scale-JumpHeight),"Out","Quad",.5)
wait(JumpCooldown)
Jumpable = true
end
end
end

First, if the variable Jumpable is your debounce, you put it in the wrong scope. Whenever the user presses 'z' a new debounce would be created, meaning no matter what when the user presses 'z', they will jump. Place that line right under local JumpCooldown = 1.

Second, you create the function Bounce(gui) but never call to it. Whenever the user presses 'z', you are creating a new function that is never called or executed. I suggest getting rid of that whole line (function Bounce(gui)) and one of the ends on lines 20-22.

If you do that and move the local Jumpable = true line to where I suggested, then you should be good to go as far as I can see.
