Making a GUI appear when you aren't typing in the chat?
Hello guys, I have simple script that when the "F" button is pressed a GUI appears. However, my only problem with is this is that when in-game and using a word that contains the letter it appears. How would I efficiently make it so that it only appears when you aren't typing in the chat?
Here is the script for reference.
local Frame = script.Parent
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
Frame.Visible = true
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)

The second parameter of the InputBegan event is gameProcessedEvent, as defined in your function. It will be true if you are typing on another gui, etc. Acknowledging this, we can use an if statement to check if the gameProcessedEvent is not true, then do the stuff that you wanted:
local Frame = script.Parent
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and not gameProcessedEvent then
Frame.Visible = true
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)
