When I press the key "F" the part should get destroyed, what is wrong?

Asked 197 views1 answers

I need help with this script

This is the error "Workspace.Crystal.Script:5: attempt to index a nil value"

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseHoverEnter:Connect(function(player)
	
db = true

player:GetMouse().KeyDown:connect(function(k)
	k = k:lower()
	if k == "f" then
		if db == true then
			script.Parent:Destroy()
		end
	end
end)
end)

What is wrong here?

It supposed to when you hover your mouse over the part and then press "F" it should get destroyed.

Thanks

you're connecting a keyboard event to the mouse, that's the problem

embed a UserInputService or ContextActionService function inside of the ClickDetector function

KeyDown in general is deprecated

KeyDown is deprecated, use the UserInputService.

You'll be using it like this.

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseHoverEnter:Connect(function(player)

	db = true
	
	game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(k)

		if k.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
			if db == true
				script.Parent:Destroy()
			end
		end

	end)
end)
