First, I set a variable called touch to see if the player has already touched the part

local touch = false

Next i used .Touched to see if the player touched the Part.

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()

Then after that, i saw if touch equaled false

if touch == false then

I created a new instance "ParticleEmitter" and put a wait(3) then destroyed it and also put touch to be equal to true

local conf = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
        conf.Parent = script.Parent
        touch = true 
        wait(3)
        script.Parent:FindFirstChild("ParticleEmitter"):Destroy()

So, it should end up like this

local touch = false
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
    if touch == false 
    then 
        local conf = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
        conf.Parent = script.Parent
        touch = true 
        wait(3)
        script.Parent:FindFirstChild("ParticleEmitter"):Destroy()
    end
end)

You can change the properties of conf to whatever you want udakotau 16 — 3y

OOOOh thank you L30N_C 27 — 3y

Nice script, although you can just enable/disable it, its my own opinion and its better to understand. Xapelize 2658 — 3y
