Why doesn't keyboard input work in a server?

Asked by

In a script I have this. The script is in a model in the Workspace.

function onKeyPress(actionName, userInputState, inputObject)
if userInputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin and InUse == 0 and Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts.Allowed.Value == 1 and script.Parent.Localizer.Value == 1 then 

print("Stuff happens here")

    end
end

game.ContextActionService:BindAction("keyPress", onKeyPress, false, Enum.KeyCode.E)

Using this works fine in Solo, but it doesn't work in a Server. I'm thinking it's because Keyboard Input is having a problem when I play on a server.

If I'm wrong please let me know. I'm trying to look for an alternative, but I'm hoping to stick to this format.

May you explain what you're trying to do? I'm kinda of confused but if you wanted to where if the player clicks a certain key then reply. TheePBHST 154 — 6y

What I'm trying to do is that when a player presses E on a model with the script in it, it runs code below it. The problem is, is that if I press E while on a Test Server, the keypress isn't received, but it works on Play Solo. BloxaBrick 2 — 6y
