People keep spamming rebirth button?

Asked by

Ok so basically I have this gui where when you get a certain amount of points, you get to rebirth. But somehow, people spam the rebirth button and they get extra rebirths, when they are only supposed to get one. Can anyone help?

Here is a link to a picture of the script: https://gyazo.com/917c67e62665bc4c2b3d2370560f1175

You're going about this the wrong way. You should be using a changed event instead of an infinite loop. Roblox has provided some extremely efficient (or at least more efficient than what you are doing) and easy to use methods for its developers. Don't waste them. User#25115 0 — 5y

This should work, if you don't want players spamming the rebirth button you need to use debounce

Change local timedelay = 2 to whatever number you want (in seconds)

Also use while true do because while wait() do is bad practice

Link to debounce

I have not tested this yet so it maaaay not work but chances of that are slim
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local debounce = true
local timedelay = 2
while true do
    if debounce == true then
        debounce = false
        if (plr.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value * 350) + 350 <= plr.leaderstats.Points.Value then
            script.Parent.Terrain = "Click to Rebirth"
        else
            script.Parent.Terrain = "Rebirth in " ..(plr.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value * 350) + 350 - plr.leaderstats.Points.Value
        end
        wait(timedelay)
        debounce = true
    end
end

You can add a debounce to prevent spamming the function

local Server = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Server.LocalPlayer

local debounce = false

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

    if debounce then return end ---If debounce = true, then stop progression
    debounce = true ---Sets debounce to true after clicking the button. Prevents spamming.
    script.Parent.RebirthEvent:FireServer()

    wait(5) ---Amount of time to wait before they can click the button again.
    debounce = false ---Sets debounce to false, allowing the code to run again.



end)
