Even though pressEnter() is bound to both the Enter key on a keyboard and the A Button on a gamepad, nothing happens when I press A.

Is there a way to fix this?

instead of doing Enum.KeyCode.ButtonA try doing Enum.KeyCode.A HappyTimIsHim 652 — 6y

Are you using this in Server Script? this works in Local Script. yHasteeD 1819 — 6y

OOOOOOOOOOOOF!!!!! you are putting a loop at lines 44 - 49, you do realize once a loop starts it cannot end unless you use break, right? Basically any touch event, anything like that will clearly not work until the loop ends. greatneil80 2647 — 6y

Does that affect BindAction too? BrockRocksYourSocks 48 — 6y

@HappyTimIsHim he is using a gamepad not a keyboard. "Enum.KeyCode.A" is for keyboards. DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 6y

@greatneil80 i agree. Doing that would trigger an epileptic seizure. DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 6y
