✓ Accepted answer
local touched = false
local waittime = 120 -- seconds to wait
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if not touched then --if the debounce variable is false, then
touched = true --make it true!
script.Parent.Chaching:play() --plays the sound in the brick
wait(waittime) --waits what you put as the variables "waittime" until it can be fired again
end
touched = false --make it false again so we can do the if statement again after your waittime
end)
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.
Basically you would make a debounce.
Debounce in a way disables the script until it needs be used again.
local debounce=false --Making a boolean value to use with debouncing the script
function onTouched(hit)
if debounce==false then -- Checks to see if the debounce is false
debounce=true -- Setting it to true, so if something touches it before the time is up it does nothing
script.Parent.Chaching:play()
wait(120)
debounce=false -- Setting debounce back to false after 120 seconds so it can be activated again.
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)
function onTouched(hit)
while true do
script.Parent.Chaching:play()
wait(120)
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

That's the simple way. All of the rest of you are complicated. Too complicated...

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