Very simple question about this line

Hello guys, very simple question, over here it says Text = 'Press ~INPUT_CONTEXT~ to enter ~y~house~s~.',

My question is where **INPUT_CONTEXT****is, is that where I put the key they need to press?

For example Text = 'Press ~E~ to enter ~y~house~s~.', would that work?

This indicates the control name of a key as seen here Controls - Cfx.re Docs

Your example probably displays a help message on the top left or an instructional button on the bottom right. When using ~INPUT_CONTEXT~ it would show an E button.

Your second text will work but it will not show a button. It will literally say Press ~E~ to enter house. (with house in yellow).

Thanks for the fast reply. Here is what I am using it for, a simple teleport script How about this?

Config              = {}

Config.DrawDistance = 100.0

Config.Marker = {
	Type = 1,
	x = 1.5, y = 1.5, z = 1.0,
	r = 255, g = 55, b = 55
}

Config.Pads = {

	TheLostHouseIn = {
		Text = 'Press ~r~E~w~ to enter ~y~house~s~.',
		Marker = { x = -1112.02, y = 4936.51, z = 218.39 },
		TeleportPoint = { x = 998.4809, y = -3164.711, z = -38.90733, h = 0.87 }
	},

	TheLostHouseOut = {
		Text = 'Press ~r~E~w~ to leave the ~y~house~s~.',
		Marker = { x = 998.4809, y = -3164.711, z = -38.90733 },
		TeleportPoint = { x = 1400.25, y = 1123.59, z = 114.84, h = 180.0 }
	}

}

Issue I am having is when i walk to the marker its there, but it doesnt teleport me or give me an option to press any button, even if I press E, so I just changed it to what you’re seeing now and hoping I did it righht.

It looks fine but this is just an array of a configuration file it seems. There’s not actually any code in this.

Thanks once again, this is esx_teleportpads that I’ve randomly ran across, I dont know how to make my own teleporting script yet, I’ve heard its fairly easy to make but I am trying to find documentation on how to do it, so I am having to resort to this for now

Here is whats in the client.lua

local HasAlreadyEnteredMarker = false

local CurrentActionMsg        = ''
local CurrentActionData       = nil
local ClickedInsideMarker     = false

ESX                           = nil

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	while ESX == nil do

		Citizen.Wait(0)
	end
end)

RegisterNetEvent('esx_teleportpads:hasEnteredMarker')
AddEventHandler('esx_teleportpads:hasEnteredMarker', function(currentPad, padData)
	CurrentAction = 'pad.' .. string.lower(currentPad)
	CurrentActionMsg = padData.Text
	CurrentActionData = { padData = padData }
end)

RegisterNetEvent('esx_teleportpads:hasExitedMarker')
AddEventHandler('esx_teleportpads:hasExitedMarker', function()
	ESX.UI.Menu.CloseAll()
