How would i make a tool press repeatively when held down?

Asked 272 views1 answers

So, i'm making a Singleplayer game where if you click it makes a part, But, I want you to be able to hold down MouseButton1 and parts to appear every 0.2 seconds, How would i fix that?

Here's my script

local lp = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")
players = game:GetService("Players")



---------------------------------------------

local mouse = lp:GetMouse()

---------------------------------------------

script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
	local x = game.Workspace.Particle:Clone()
	x.Name = 'Parciclepart'
	x.Position = mouse.Hit.Position
	x.Parent = workspace
end)


---------------------------------------------

Thanks for reading, Help it appreciated.

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local mouse = Players:GetMouse()

script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
	local pressed = true
	while pressed  do -- repeat as long as the mouse button is pressed
		-- clone the part
		local x = workspace.Particle:Clone()
			x.Name = "ParticlePart"
			x.Position = mouse.Hit.Position
			x.Parent  = workspace

		-- wait 0.2s
		local start = tick()

		repeat
			RunService.Stepped:Wait()
		until tick() - start > 0.2

		-- check if the mouse button is pressed
		pressed  = UserInputService:IsMouseButtonPressed(Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1)
	end
end)
