How Do You Add Debounce In This Script?
How do you add debounce in this script? I want it to wait 4 seconds before it does the second part of the coding when touched. So, it does the first action, then wait 4 seconds, next do the second action, and at last wait another 4 seconds before it does the first action again. Thanks!
01 | local boolean = false |
02 |
03 | function onTouched() |
04 | if boolean then |
05 | boolean = false |
06 | --code |
07 | wait(4) |
08 | else |
09 | boolean = true |
10 | --code |
11 | wait(4) |
12 | end |
13 | end |
14 |

16 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched) |

Sorry but I need it to do the second action, I think this only does 1 action GatitosMansion 187 — 8y

Sorry that I am not clear xD I mean like when it is touched the first time, it does something. Then when it is touched the second time, it does a different action. GatitosMansion 187 — 8y

Thanks it worked! I have two questions, but it is not necessary to answer them, you can just ignore them if you want. Is boolean still nessesary ? Also, is there an official word to replace "action"? GatitosMansion 187 — 8y

Boolean is the debounce, you can rename it to whatever you like, as for your second question, I don't know. Maybe scope? I'm still new to scripting myself. NovaMagic 73 — 8y

Something like this should work.
01 | local boolean = false |
02 |
03 | function onTouched() |
04 | if not boolean then |
05 | boolean = true |
06 | wait(4) |
07 | --run your code |
08 | boolean = false |
09 | end |
10 |
11 |
12 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched) |
Here's a practical use for debounce.
01 | local debounce = false |
02 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
03 | if not debounce then |
04 | debounce = true |
05 | local hit = hit.Parent |
06 | local hum = hit:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") |
07 | hum.Health = hum.Health - 5 |
08 | wait(3) |
09 | debounce = false |
10 | end |
11 | end) |

Sorry but I need it to do the second action, I think this only does 1 action. In my script there is 2 coding parts. I need it to do the first action, wait and then do the second action GatitosMansion 187 — 8y

Can you post your code? It's kind of hard to answer your request if we're not sure what you're doing. Almorpheus 10 — 8y
