why doesn't my user input service script doesn't work?
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local h = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
local keyIn = input.KeyCode
if keyIn == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
print("left shift")
h.WalkSpeed = 25
end
end)
The script is parented in Starter player scripts and it's a local script What am i doing wrong?

did you click Q or left shift because the Enum is Q and the print is "left shift" (Whats up with the logic) Luka_Gaming07 534 — 4y

- You'd want to use GetService() as it is recommended.
- You did not check if the character existed before continuing.
Here is the fix:
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait() -- character might not have been created yet.
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key, gameProcessedEvent)
if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q and not gameProcessedEvent then
Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 25
end
end)
Hope this helped.

thanks it helped! im going to accept your answer but what is with the "gameProcessedEvent"? seikkatsu 110 — 4y

The "gameProcessedEvent" Indicates whether the game engine internally observed this input and acted on it. Generally this refers to UI processing, so if a button was touched or clicked from this input, gameProcessedEvent would be true. This is also true for input events connected via ContextActionService.
