debouncing not working correctly after first execute?
So I made this moving door script: when you touch a button, the door moves waits then moves back and I tried using the wiki to debounce it now after the firstn activation the button works normally but then onwards the button becomes possible to activate earlier than supposed making the door move farther:
local buttonPressed = false
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(move)
if not buttonPressed then
buttonPressed = true
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(21)
local wall = script.Parent.Parent.wall.wall
local dis =150
for i=0, dis do
wall.CFrame = wall.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,0,0.2)
wait()
end
wait(5)
for i=0, dis do
wall.CFrame = wall.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,0,-0.2)
wait()
end
end
wait(20)
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(309)
buttonPressed = false
end)

Alright so it's just a very small mistake that was causing that, you did not have the wait and the debounce change under the if statement, which caused that problem. I've also added a few things to make sure it does not glitch in any way. So here is the script:
local buttonPressed = false
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(part)
if not buttonPressed and part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid", true) then -- Checks if the 'toucher' is a player
buttonPressed = true
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(21)
local wall = script.Parent.Parent.wall.wall
local dis =150
for i=0, dis do
wall.CFrame = wall.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,0,0.2)
wait()
end
wait(5)
for i=0, dis do
wall.CFrame = wall.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,0,-0.2)
wait()
end
wait(5) -- reduced it, thought 20 seconds was too much
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(309)
buttonPressed = false
end -- this end was right after the end on top of the wait(5) which caused the problem
end)
That had to be under the if statement because when it was not under the if statement it would do it anyways when the button is touched, even if it doesn't meet the conditions, which is what caused the problem.
Hope that helped, if you have any questions, I will be glad to answer you.

Have you tried changing
if not buttonPressed then
to
if buttonPressed == false then
It's just a assumption - mainly because you are changing buttonPressed back to false at the end of the script.
