Touched function plays multiple times, is it possible to make it play only once?
I have a script here:
It plays like, 50 times when touching it.
Can it be done without using Region3 or Rays?
01 | part.Teleport1Part.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
02 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
03 | local thing = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TeleportBlackScreen |
04 | thing.Visible = true |
05 | repeat |
06 | wait(0.1) |
07 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency - 0.1 |
08 | until thing.BackgroundTransparency <= 0 |
09 | hit.Parent.Head.CFrame = part.Teleport1Position.CFrame |
10 | repeat |
11 | wait(1) |
12 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency + 0.1 |
13 | until thing.BackgroundTransparency >= 1 |
14 | thing.Visible = false |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end) |

you can use a debounce.
01 | local deb = false |
02 | part.Teleport1Part.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
03 | if deb == false then |
04 | deb = true |
05 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
06 | local thing = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TeleportBlackScreen |
07 | thing.Visible = true |
08 | repeat |
09 | wait(0.1) |
10 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency - 0.1 |
11 | until thing.BackgroundTransparency <= 0 |
12 | hit.Parent.Head.CFrame = part.Teleport1Position.CFrame |
13 | repeat |
14 | wait(1) |
15 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency + 0.1 |

Use a debounce value, a value to make sure it doesn't spam the function when the function is playing.
01 | debounce = 0 |
02 | part.Teleport1Part.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
03 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
04 | debounce = 1 |
05 | local thing = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TeleportBlackScreen |
06 | thing.Visible = true |
07 | repeat |
08 | wait(0.1) |
09 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency - 0.1 |
10 | until thing.BackgroundTransparency <= 0 |
11 | hit.Parent.Head.CFrame = part.Teleport1Position.CFrame |
12 | repeat |
13 | wait(1) |
14 | thing.BackgroundTransparency = thing.BackgroundTransparency + 0.1 |
15 | until thing.BackgroundTransparency >= 1 |
16 | thing.Visible = false |
17 | debounce = 0 |
18 | end |
19 | end |
20 | end) |
This should slow the rate down, and also make sure it doesnt happen when it is already playing, make sure to use debounce values in functions like this.
If you need it to be slower, you add a wait() before it turns debounce to 0, increase the wait() the less you want it to fire.
