How do I make a "while touched" function?
I want to know how to make a "while touched" script.
So when a player is touching a brick, it will execute a function, but I also want it were the function will always execute intill the player steps off the brick.
So I want a loop when you are touching and i want the loop to end when you stop touching
thank you for any type of help!

local block = script.Parent
on = true
function touching()
print ('Touching!')
end
function notTouching()
print ('Not Touching!')
end
block.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and on == true then --we put this so if item fall in there or the part touching to the ground it will not activated
touching()
wait (3)
on = false
end
end)
block.TouchEnded:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and on == false then --same like this one
notTouching()
wait (3)
on = true
end
end)
i put the comparing variable so it will not spamming printing until 3 second ,sorry if i wrong im still learning too :)

Your 'on' variable suffices as a debounce, no need for the extra 3 second wait. What you've written would make it so that you can't leave the part until 3 seconds after touching it, which I would imagine to be inconvenient for players. +1 for the otherwise accurate answer saenae 318 — 6y
