I have this code:
function onTouched(part)
local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if h~=nil then
h.Health = h.Health -25
script.Parent.Impact:Play()
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)
how would i make it so that when it touches the player, it has a delay between attacks? I tried putting a wait(5) before the first end, but that didn't work.
Most people like to use a debounce, like so:
local debounce = false -- Basically a debounce for your delay.
local delay = 5 -- seconds before they can attack again.
function onTouched(otherPart)
local h = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if h then
debounce = true
h.Health = h.Health - 25
script.Parent.Impact:Play()
wait(5)
debounce = false
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(onTouched)
Use debounce, because if you put wait(5) in the onTouched event it will just wait inside the function, it won't wait for all touched events
local debounce = false
function onTouched(part)
if not debounce then -- check if debounce is false
local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if h~=nil then
debounce = true -- there is a character so we enable debounce to prevent it from loading again
h.Health = h.Health -25
script.Parent.Impact:Play()
wait(5) -- we wait 5 seconds
debounce = false -- we disable debounce so this can run again
end
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

Sorry forgot one important thing, where it says 'if h then', replace with 'if h and debounce == false' then. Apologises.
i would recommend using if not debounce then , since its more clean
