Please provide explanation with your answers. Simply posting code does not spread knowledge of integral scripting processes which helps people understand the logic and reasoning behind your answer.
01 | local touched = false |
02 | local waittime = 120 -- seconds to wait |
03 |
04 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
05 | if not touched then --if the debounce variable is false, then |
06 | touched = true --make it true! |
07 | script.Parent.Chaching:play() --plays the sound in the brick |
08 | wait(waittime) --waits what you put as the variables "waittime" until it can be fired again |
09 | end |
10 | touched = false --make it false again so we can do the if statement again after your waittime |
11 | end) |

Don't just provide code, explain it. Just providing code without an explanation doesn't let them learn anything. Goulstem 8144 — 10y

You would have to create a debounce.
You can see one here: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Debounce

For future reference - you should provide a code example with your explanation. Goulstem 8144 — 10y

Basically you would make a debounce.
Debounce in a way disables the script until it needs be used again.
01 | local debounce=false --Making a boolean value to use with debouncing the script |
02 | function onTouched(hit) |
03 | if debounce==false then -- Checks to see if the debounce is false |
04 | debounce=true -- Setting it to true, so if something touches it before the time is up it does nothing |
05 | script.Parent.Chaching:play() |
06 | wait(120) |
07 | debounce=false -- Setting debounce back to false after 120 seconds so it can be activated again. |
08 | end |
09 | end |
10 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched) |

1 | function onTouched(hit) |
2 | while true do |
3 | script.Parent.Chaching:play() |
4 | wait(120) |
5 | end |
6 | end |
7 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched) |

That's the simple way. All of the rest of you are complicated. Too complicated... Ethan_Waike 156 — 10y
