Animation Debounce not changing value?

Asked 151 views1 answers

I made a function in a local script that plays animations along with a debounce so that you cannot play the same animation within a second of the animation playing. Here is the Local Script function:

local function PlayAttackAnimation(AnimationTrack)
        local Debounce

        if Debounce == true then return end

	AnimationTrack.Looped = false

	AnimationTrack:Play()

        Debounce = true
	wait(1)
        Debounce = false
end

What's happening is that the Debounce is not changing at all. Any solutions?

The reason for this is because you've put the debounce in the function, each time you call the function it issues a new debounce since that's what you're telling the script to do.

Try put the debounce outside the function like so:

local Debounce
local function PlayAttackAnimation(AnimationTrack)
	if Debounce == true then return end
	AnimationTrack.Looped = false
	AnimationTrack:Play()
	Debounce = true
	wait(1)
	Debounce = false
end
