How do i have something loop until the player stops pressing a key?
This is the first script (localsript) which works perfectly
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local deboune = false
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input)
if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
if deboune == true then return end
deboune = true
game.ReplicatedStorage.Controls.ShiftCharge:FireServer(Input)
wait(.3)
deboune = false
end
end)
this is the script in which im having some trouble with. i got rid of lots of the script to shorten it to the important bits
local user = game:GetService("UserInputService")
game.ReplicatedStorage.Controls.ShiftCharge.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, Input)
repeat
x = x + 1
wait(1)
until user.InputEnded --Input.UserInputState == Enum.UserInputState.End
end)
Input.UserInputState == Enum.UserInputState.End
works in studio as there is no client-server boundary but in game it doesnt work.
user.InputEnded doesnt work in studio and the game eventhough im still pressing the key.

Sorta interesting, however here is a way you can do it (Keep in mind these need to be local script)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local keydown = false
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input)
if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
keydown = true
end
end)
UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(Input)
if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
keydown = false
end
end
while true do
wait(1)
if keydown then
-- whatever you want to repeat while the key is down
end
end
Here is how it works: When the input starts, it sets a variable to true. The loop that runs then realizes that a key is down and runs. When the key stops being held down, it changes the variable.

I tried doing this using bool values so whenever it equals true, the value starts adding. Just as Commander was explaining.
Local script:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local deboune = false
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input)
if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
if deboune == true then return end
deboune = true
player.Clicking.Value = true
game.ReplicatedStorage.Controls.ShiftCharge:FireServer(Input)
wait(.3)
deboune = false
end
player.Clicking.Value = false
end)
Local script:
local user = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
-- Creating bool value
local Boolvalue = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Boolvalue.Parent = plr
Boolvalue.Name = "Clicking"
local NumberValue = Instance.new("NumberValue")
NumberValue.Parent = plr
NumberValue.Name = "Example"
NumberValue.Value = 0
game.ReplicatedStorage.Controls.ShiftCharge.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
while wait(.2) do
spawn(function()
if Boolvalue.Value == true then
plr.Example.Value = plr.Example.Value + 1
end
end)
end
end)
