Trying to make a cash giver that only works once per person. Can anyone help me?
Hi, I'm trying to make a cash giver for advanced tycoon but I need it to only work once per person so if I use it another person can use it right after but I can't. Sorry if that's confusing help appreciate! Here is the script I have right now what should I change I'm a beginner scripter local ting = 0 --debouncer
function onTouched(hit)
if ting == 0 then --debounce check
ting = 1 --activate debounce
check = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") --Find the human that touched the button
if check ~= nil then --If a human is found, then
local user = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) --get player from touching human
local stats = user:findFirstChild("leaderstats") --Find moneyholder
if stats ~= nil then --If moneyholder exists then
local cash = stats:findFirstChild("Cash") --Get money
cash.Value = cash.Value +100 --increase amount of money by the number displayed here (5000)
wait(0)
--wait-time before button works again
end
end
ting = 0 --remove debounce
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

instead of "ting" as an int you would use ting as a table and use the player's name or userId as the key and the number (0 or 1) as the value SerpentineKing 3885 — 4y

Why are you making "ting" an int and not a boolean? This just wastes memory(although at your level you shouldn't worry about that stuff yet). brokenVectors 525 — 4y

local users = {} --Empty table
local debounce = false --A simpler debounce, in my opinion ;)
function onTouched(hit)
if not debounce then --If debounce is false...
debounce = true --Debounce!
hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") --Find the human that touched the button
if check then --If there's a humanoid
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if plr then --If a player touched it,
local found
for i, plr_name in pairs(users) do --Loops through the users table
if plr_name == plr.Name then --If the entry matches the player's name,
found = true --They've used it
break --End the loop
end
end
local stats = plr:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
if stats and not found then --If they weren't found in the table
table.insert(users, plr.Name) --Adds the player's name to the users table
local cash = stats:FindFirstChild("Cash")
if cash then
cash.Value = cash.Value + 100 --increase amount of money by the number displayed here (5000)
wait(0)
end
end
end
end
debounce = false
end
end
If there's something you didn't understand, let me know!

instead of just giving the code right away, tell them how they'd approach the problem and what kind of functions to use. otherwise they'll just keep coming here expecting to be spoonfed. brokenVectors 525 — 4y
