Mobile Button Help

[shy plume]

Ok I need help with this, I have a run and walk animation that plays when I click a key, but I made a button so that it also works when you click it, the problem is that I don't know how to make it work. Could anyone help me with this?

[agile imp]

hii hii!!! you can use a RemoteEvent or a BindableEvent

^^

[shy plume]

Oh hello

I do have a question

Could you help me with that

[glad flare]

** You are now Level 2! **

[shy plume]

@agile imp

So how could I do it

Which one do you recommend I do

@agile imp

[agile imp]

:p

[shy plume]

Ok ok

[shy plume]

So where do I put this

Under

The run and walk script

?

[agile imp]

umm

thats for you to figure out!

^^

[shy plume]

They're 2 seperate ones

Oh

Yeah then i guess I'll have to forget about it

[shy plume]

Ok I guess this is my last question do I use both

Or just 1

[agile imp]

Probably just one since its a running thingymajig

or you can use none!

Im assumign your run script is a... localscript?

[shy plume]

Yes

So there's a walk and run

[agile imp]

So just reference the button! ^^

[shy plume]

Wdym reference

Ok im just confused now

[agile imp]

like
local Variable =

im not that good at explaining!

sorry!!

[shy plume]

Oh ok

It's fine

The thing is

I have like

It's custom animation scripts

So I have a walk

And a run

When I click a key

It alternated

Alternates

[pulsar drum]

r u saying the one key activates two things

[shy plume]

Between the run or walk

[shy plume]

Yes it's the r key

[pulsar drum]

and you want to distinguish

[shy plume]

When I click r it stops the custom animation script

[pulsar drum]

between what u want

[shy plume]

For walking

I want to replicate that

But with a button

I mean like

When I click the button

It does the same thing

[pulsar drum]

oh

[shy plume]

Want me to show you

?

[pulsar drum]

ok so basically on pc u want “r” to do something

and on mobile a button to do the same thing

[shy plume]

Yes

Yes yes exactly

[pulsar drum]

where is the logic for the animation kept in

a script or module

[shy plume]

Ok I don't understand that but I'll tell you, the scripts are local scripts inside of startercharacterscripts

[pulsar drum]

ok so like

you could technically copy and paste the same walk animation logic into the on event for the button

and also when the player presses R

[shy plume]

Btw it also has a resume walk animation script which is just a script

[pulsar drum]

this is how i woukd handle it

i would create a function in a module script

[shy plume]

Ok so what do you want me to do

[pulsar drum]

that function will do the animation when called

[glad flare]

** You are now Level 1! **

[shy plume]

Can you show me step by step

[pulsar drum]

ye

i am technically lol

[shy plume]

Oh ok mb

[pulsar drum]

ok so

real quick

i would make a function in the module script

that function would activate the animation

[shy plume]

Where is that

[pulsar drum]

wym that

[shy plume]

Function and module script I don't understand

[glad flare]

** You are now Level 3! **

[pulsar drum]

oh

you know what module scripts do

theyre things that let you share code

Across multiple scripts

[shy plume]

Ok so but I don't see a module script

Do you want me to like

Go inside a folder

And make a module script?

[pulsar drum]

yeah

[shy plume]

Like add a module script to something?

[pulsar drum]

wait

i think i should just make a code sample

gimme a sec

[shy plume]

You're the goat bro

[pulsar drum]

send me ur script actually

I wanna see

[shy plume]

Ok what script

[pulsar drum]

Anything related

that captures ur problem

[shy plume]

I mean I havent done anything

The only thing I did was

[pulsar drum]

oh

[shy plume]

Make the button

I already have the run and walk for the r key

I just need to make it for the button

But I don't know how to

Want me to show you?

@pulsar drum

Do you see

[pulsar drum]

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local function playAnimation()
print("animation played")
-- blah blah
end

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessed)
if gameProcessed then return end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then
playAnimation()
end
end)

local button = game.StarterGui.TextButton

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
playAnimation()
end)

does this answer the question

[shy plume]

You want me to do this

So i copy this

And paste it

?

[pulsar drum]

it checks if u inputed “r” or press a pre made button and fires the same code

[shy plume]

Ok

[shy plume]

Do you want me to put that code inside of the run script

@pulsar drum
