How do you deactivate this when you're not clicking?
So I am making a tool that puts a meatloaf where you click however when you stop clicking the function still continues please help!
Code:
local tool = script.Parent
local IsE = 0
local IsC = 0
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local laser = game.ServerStorage.Laser
function onClicked(mouse)
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
tool.Fire1.BrickColor=BrickColor.Red()
laser.Parent=workspace
while true do
game.Workspace.MeatLoaf.Position=mouse.Hit.p
wait(0.1)
end
end
function Equipped(mouse)
mouse.Button1Down:connect(onClicked)
end
tool.Equipped:connect(Equipped)
function offClicked(mouse)
tool.Fire1.BrickColor=BrickColor.Black()
end
mouse.Button1Up:connect(offClicked)

You use a while true do, this can only be canceled by inserting a break. RubenKan 3615 — 8y

First off, your code is a mess lol. I highly recommend using anonymous functions so that you can nest events inside each other. It will look a lot nicer and be more organized:
tool.Equipped:connect(function(mouse)
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
--click
end)
mouse.Button1Up:connect(function()
--unclick
end)
end)
Anyways, the reason your code never stops is that you never tell it to stop. On line 12, you start an infinite loop. It's gonna keep running no matter what.
I'll show you a pretty easy method in order to get around this. Create a variable. When a player clicks, make it true. When a player unclicks, make it false. Then create an infinite loop outside the events, checking what the variable equals and running code based on that.
local clicked = false
tool.Equipped:connect(function(mouse)
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
clicked = true
end)
mouse.Button1Up:connect(function()
clicked = false
end)
end)
while wait(0.1) do
if clicked then
--code
end
end

Could you also use API:Class/UserInputService/InputEnded? Since hes no longer interacting with the mouse, can you connect this event to the function? SilentAim 36 — 8y
