KeyPressed and KeyReleased

[Zer0nix]

I have an entity that has 3d2d text, what I'm trying to do is when you release your use key from it the text disappears. I used networkedvar btw. It works when you first press E on it but after releasing the key, the text doesnt disappear.

function ENT:Initialize()
--INIT--
      self:SetModel("models/props/de_nuke/crate_extrasmall.mdl")
      self:PhysicsInit(SOLID_VPHYSICS)
      self:SetMoveType(MOVETYPE_VPHYSICS)
      self:SetSolid(SOLID_VPHYSICS)
      self:SetPressing(false)
      self:SetUseType(CONTINUOUS_USE)
      local phys = self:GetPhysicsObject()
     

      if phys:IsValid() then

      	phys:Wake()      

      end

end

function ENT:Use(activator,caller)

if caller:KeyPressed(IN_USE) then 
      self:SetPressing(true)
elseif caller:KeyReleased(IN_USE) then
      self:SetPressing(false)
end


end

--CLIENT THIS IS BEING USED IN ENT:DRAW--
         cam.Start3D2D(poss+offsets,angss,0.15)
         if self:GetPressing() == true then

         width = Lerp(FrameTime()*1,width,100) 
         surface.SetDrawColor(0,0,0,mainss)
         surface.DrawOutlinedRect(-51,-451,102,32)
         draw.RoundedBox(0,-50,-450,width,30,Color(230,10,30,mainss))
         elseif self:GetPressing() == false then
         	        draw.SimpleTextOutlined("FALSE","NewFontsz",0,-500,Color(255,255,255,mainss), TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER,0,2,Color(0,0,0,mainss))

         end
         cam.End3D2D()

Well if you don't really need any of the serversided, why not just do it all clientside?

Wrap that whole cam.Start3D2D statement in [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/input/IsKeyDown]input.IsKeyDown[/url] (Probably a trace check too)
To answer your question, what you're doing won't work because :Use doesn't get called UNTIL the key is pressed down. (not when the key is released)

yeah oops, didn't think of that. Ill try doing it all clientside then

 if tr.Entity.PrintName == "Crate" and input.IsKeyDown(IN_USE) then 
         	print("yes")
         	
         width = Lerp(FrameTime()*1,width,100) 
         surface.SetDrawColor(0,0,0,mainss)
         surface.DrawOutlinedRect(-51,-451,102,32)
         draw.RoundedBox(0,-50,-450,width,30,Color(230,10,30,mainss)) 
         else
         	draw.SimpleTextOutlined("NOT PRESSING","NewFontsz",0,-450,Color(255,255,255,mainss), TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER,0,2,Color(0,0,0,mainss))
         end

Currently that only shows the not pressing text, it never prints yes or does the other 3d2d. Anything I missed?

Oops it should be KEY_E not IN_USE my bad. Thanks a lot buddy!
