How to make this so the player has to touch the object for a certain amount of time before it works?
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid ~= nil then
hit.Position = Vector3.new(-18, 0.5, -9)
end
end )
I want to make sure that when the player touches this object (Door) on accident they don't get teleported out.
I'm probably going to end up utilizing a while loop but I don't know what my condition would be exactly to check time.

local touched = 5 -- Number of times before it works.
local debounce = false
local debouncetime = 0.5 -- .Touched will fire repeatedly, this will cool it down for a second.
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if debounce == false then
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid ~= nil then
hit.Position = Vector3.new(-18, 0.5, -9)
end
debounce = true
coroutine.wrap(function()
wait(debouncetime)
debounce = false
end)()
end
end)
Hope this helps!

Worked perfectly thank you <3! Why exactly did you decide to make another thread through a coroutine? I kind of understand why here but I'd like to cement my knowledge sebastian1102 11 — 1y

I just realized, I didn't answer your question properly. I read the title and read it as "so the player has to touch the object a certain amount of times before it works." Sorry! I made a coroutine because of how touched events work, if you touch an object, and then have just a regular "wait" within the code, it will only handle that single touched event, and then a bunch of other touched events tgarbrechtALTacc 20 — 1y

will fire at the same time. I'm going to re-respond to this again. tgarbrechtALTacc 20 — 1y
