Methods

Events

Button1Down

This event is triggered when the primary mouse button (Button1) is pressed down. It is commonly used to detect when the player initiates a click action in the game. Developers can connect custom logic to this event for various gameplay mechanics, such as interacting with objects, selecting items, or performing attacks.

Parameters

Code Samples

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

local function OnButton1Down()
    print("Button1Down", Mouse.Target)
end
Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(OnButton1Down)

Button1Up

Button1Up represents the event triggered when the primary mouse button (Button1) is released. It is typically used to detect when a player finishes a click action in the game. This event can be utilized for gameplay interactions like ending a drag-and-drop sequence, confirming selections, or stopping an ongoing action triggered by a mouse press.

Parameters

Code Samples

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

local function OnButton1Up()
    print("Button1Up")
end
Mouse.Button1Up:Connect(OnButton1Up)

Button2Down

This event is triggered when the secondary mouse button (Button2) is pressed down. It is generally used to detect right-click actions in the game and is commonly utilized for mechanics such as opening context menus, rotating objects, or providing additional interaction options.

Parameters

Code Samples

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

local function OnButton2Down()
    print("Button2Down", Mouse.Target)
end
Mouse.Button2Down:Connect(OnButton2Down)

Button2Up

Button2Up represents the event triggered when the secondary mouse button (Button2) is released. It is commonly used to detect when a player finishes a right-click interaction in the game. This event can be utilized for various gameplay scenarios, such as finalizing a context menu, stopping a rotation action, or ending any secondary mouse-triggered tasks.

Parameters
