How would I make a check to make sure humanoids don't get hit in an amount of time?
Currently I am using a raycast module by TeamSwordphin, and I am trying to make this spin attack only damage a humanoid once it has been hit, then a little after, so the attack would not be in their hitbox anymore, until it comes back around.
newHitbox.OnHit:Connect(function(hit)
print(hit)
print(hit.Parent)
local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if hit.Parent.Name == game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then
elseif hum and hit.Parent.Name ~= game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then
local tag = Instance.new("IntValue")
tag.Name = "tag"
tag.Parent = hum
if tag.Value == 0 or tag.Value == nil then
tag.Value = 1
hum:TakeDamage(50)
wait(.1)
tag:Destroy()
end
The problem I'm finding is that this seems unreliable. A problem that this may or may not cause is that not moving makes this not even fire, but also sometimes when I am moving, it just doesn't work. Any advice is helpful.

There are comments in the code to help if needed, if you need more information on certain things used then:
local Cooldown = 1 -- The seconds before it can be damaged again
local Debug = true
local AddCooldown = function(Humanoid)
local Int = Instance.new("IntValue")
Int.Name = "DamageCooldown"
Int.Parent = Humanoid
local Thread = coroutine.create(function()
wait(Cooldown)
if Debug then
warn("Cooldown Taken Off") -- some stuff to help
end
Int:Destroy()
end)
coroutine.resume(Thread) -- using coroutines means it ignores the wait inside of the function
end
newHitbox.Touched:Connect(function(Part)
local Player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(Part.Parent) -- more efficient method
if Player then -- is it a player?
if Player.Character then -- checking if player has a character
if Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- does the character have a humanoid?
local Humanoid = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if not Humanoid:FindFirstChild("DamageCooldown") then
AddCooldown(Humanoid) -- Adding DamageCooldown Value
Humanoid:TakeDamage(50)
if Debug then
warn("Humanoid Took Damage") -- some stuff to help
end
end
end
end
end
end)
