How would I play a looped Animation using debounce? [Solved]

Asked by 6 years ago
Edited 6 years ago

I have an onTouched function that runs a looped animation once a player touches a part, and when the player stops touching the part it stops the animation. How exactly would I use debounce to run the looping animation each time a player touches a part?

My poor attempt:

local deb = false
script.Parent.UpperTorso.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if not deb then
        deb = true
        local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent)
        local character = player.Character
        local humanoid = character.Humanoid
        local head = character:WaitForChild('Head')
        local falling = head:FindFirstChild('FreeFalling')
        local storage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
        local Animation = Storage.Animations:FindFirstChild('Treading')
        local Track = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
            if hit.Name == 'Ocean' and Track.IsPlaying == false then
                Track:Play()
        end

        if Track.IsPlaying == true then
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
        else
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
        end
        if falling.IsPlaying == true then
            falling.Looped = false
            falling:Stop()
        else
            return
        end
    end
end)

The code above only executes once, so when the player stops touching the part then touches it again it doesn't execute. How would I get it to execute each time a player touches it; without the animation spamming?

I don't know if this is the awnser your looking for BUT you could change debounce back to true after they have stopped stepping on it. So You could see if Hit.parent isn't the local players name and if it isn't change it to false. FallenReju 3 — 6y
