UserInputService only when holding a Tool?
So i have been trying this for a long time and still can't do it.How do i make it so that when the player is holding a tool THEN they can use UIS (UserInputService).Most of the time i can use the UIS without holding the tool and that is not what i am trying to get.
wait(3)
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Holding = false
if script.Parent.Equipped == true then
Holding = true
elseif script.Parent.Equipped == false then
Holding = false
end
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R and Holding == true then
print("Key")
local BV = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart)
BV.maxForce = Vector3.new(0, math.huge, 0)
BV.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 60, 0)
wait(0.5)
BV:Destroy()
end
end)

I figured out the problem here.
There's a setting within the tool called 'RequiresHandle'. If this is enabled, the tool will wait for a handle and will yield the script.
If you don't want a handle, make sure that's disabled or else include a part within the tool called 'Handle'.
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Tool = script.Parent
local Equipped = false
UIS.InputBegan:connect(function(Input, GP)
if Input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then
if GP ~= true then
if Equipped == true then
local Key = Input.KeyCode
if Key == Enum.KeyCode.R then
print("R was pressed!")
end
end
end
end
end)
Tool.Equipped:connect(function() Equipped = true end)
Tool.Unequipped:connect(function() Equipped = false end)

Hello.
Your variable Holding will be defined once and it will not change if you equip/unequip the tool. There are 2 events that will help you: Equipped and Unequipped.
Here's an example:
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Holding = false
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, box)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R and not box and Holding then
print("Key R pressed, tool equipped.!")
end
end)
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
Holding = true
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
Holding = false
end)
Note: box is a boolean value. If the user was focused on a TextBox, for example, the Chat, when he was pressing the key, it will be true, if not, false.
