Offer touch, keyboard and gamepad actions

local function onAction(_, state)
    if state ~= Enum.UserInputState.Begin then return Enum.ContextActionResult.Pass end

Filtering input state prevents duplicate Begin/End behavior.

Main guided reference implementation; use the hierarchy’s stated Script or ModuleScript type.

local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local gui = script.Parent
local panel = gui:WaitForChild("QuestPanel")
local button = gui:WaitForChild("QuestButton")
local function toggle() panel.Visible = not panel.Visible end
local function onAction(_, state)
    if state ~= Enum.UserInputState.Begin then return Enum.ContextActionResult.Pass end
    toggle()
    return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("ToggleQuest", onAction, true, Enum.KeyCode.Q, Enum.KeyCode.ButtonY)
ContextActionService:SetTitle("ToggleQuest", "Quests")
ContextActionService:SetPosition("ToggleQuest", UDim2.new(1,-160,1,-160))
local connection = button.Activated:Connect(toggle)
gui.Destroying:Connect(function()
    ContextActionService:UnbindAction("ToggleQuest")
    connection:Disconnect()
end)

Conflicting action names can replace bindings; use a scoped name in a larger project.

A press may be consumed by higher-priority contexts; inspect action bindings before adding duplicate handlers.

ContextActionService binds a named action to input choices. The callback receives actionName, inputState and inputObject. React on Begin so a press does not toggle again on release.

createTouchButton=true creates a touch alternative. Give it a clear title and position. Also retain an ordinary visible GUI button as a discoverable action.

Return Pass when an input should continue to other handlers and Sink when this interface intentionally consumes it. Unbind your action on teardown so an old screen does not keep intercepting input.
