I tried adding a debounce to this script now it's not working help, ?

Asked 189 views1 answers

So this is my original script:

boxOwn = script.Parent
boxOwn.Touched:connect(function(part)
	local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
	game.Lighting["Box"]:clone().Parent = Player.Backpack 
end)

However that made it so when a player touches the box it gives them like 20 boxes. So I did this:

boxOwn = script.Parent
boxOwn.Touched:connect(function(part)
	if not debounce then
		debounce = true
		local plyr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		game.Lighting["Box"]:clone().Parent = plyr.Backpack
	end
	wait(2)
end)
debounce = false

I tried adding a debounce and it works once but you cant get any boxes after that

boxOwn = script.Parent
boxOwn.Touched:connect(function(part)
    if not debounce then
        debounce = true
        local plyr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
        game.Lighting["Box"]:clone().Parent = plyr.Backpack
    end
    wait(2)
end)
debounce = false

Debounce was never called again. Because you ended the function before it turned it off. Its as simple as doing this

boxOwn = script.Parent
boxOwn.Touched:connect(function(part)
    if not debounce then
        debounce = true
        local plyr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
        game.Lighting["Box"]:clone().Parent = plyr.Backpack
    wait(2)
debounce = false    
end
end)
