Well, to detect when you press a key, you need use a function called KeyCode, you can see this article for more information : https://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Enum/KeyCode
I use this type of KeyCode in my scripts :
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Z then end
you can change the "Z" for the key that you want, and this function need be in a LocalScript

oh, i usually put the script in GUIs, but i think that this can work with StarterPlayersScripts too, Backpack and etc. darkzerobits 92 — 5y

Hello Tacodragon777, you can use the Service called "UserInputService" to deal with keys heres an example below
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then-- you can change the letter "E" to any other Key
--then put what happens down here like
print("It works!")
