Can somebody help me? Cooldown script.
Can somebody help me? I've been attempting to do this but it wont work. So I want a script so if you say "heal/", it will heal you, but if you say it too much it will cooldown. Does anyone know how to do that to prevent spam?

Never request scripts, by the way I am nice today: You can make a timer that start after the player chatted "heal/" like this:
01 | local timer = 10 -- At how many seconds the timer will start |
02 | local timerStarted = false -- Has the time started? |
03 | function heal() |
04 | -- Your heal code, inside it put this |
05 | startTimer() |
06 | end |
07 |
08 | function startTimer() |
09 | timerStarted = true |
10 | while timer > 0 do |
11 | timer = timer - 1 |
12 | wait(1) -- Wait 1 second before decrease the timer again, IT WILL NOT FINISH THE FUNCTION UNTIL THE LOOP HAS FINISHED! |
13 | end |
14 | timerStarted = false |
15 | timer = 10 -- Resetting the timer, because the loop has finished |
16 | end |
Ok we added something that checks if the timer Started or not, now we need to modify this:
1 | function heal() |
2 | -- Your heal code |
3 | startTimer() |
4 | end |
Into this
1 | function heal() |
2 | if timerStarted then |
3 | stopSpam() |
4 | else |
5 | -- Your heal code |
6 | startTimer() |
7 | end |
8 | end |
This simply check if the player healed while the timer has started or not, but we need to add the last and missing function: the stopSpam().... OOH it's sooooo hard! No joke:
1 | function stopSpam() |
2 | -- What will the game do to the player? Send a message? Create a gui? Or just banning him? |
3 | print("A player used the 'heal/' command while his timer started!") -- Simply print to the output the error I wrote |
4 | end |
The last thing is: you need to make sure that you call "heal()" inside the command function/script, example IN METALANGUAGE!:
1 | if player chatted "heal/" then |
2 | call stopSpam -- or just "stopSpam()" |
3 | end |
It should work, the code hasn't been tested, PM me if you encounter any problem!
