How to stop item giver from giving player item without a wait?
So i found a script in where when a player touches a certain block, they get an item from the replicated storage. But when the player touches the block the block will keep on giving the player the item without a wait. What I want is the script to give the player the item but then to have a small wait (3 sec) so that when the player touches the brick it doesnt give the player like 5 swords, or 6 bow and arrows.
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)
function getPlayer(humanoid)
local players = game.Players:children()
for i = 1, #players do
if players[i].Character.Humanoid == humanoid and players[i].Backpack:FindFirstChild("GhostBurger") == nil then return players[i] end
end
return nil
end
function onTouch(part)
local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (human == nil) then return end
local player = getPlayer(human)
if (player == nil) then return end
game.ReplicatedStorage:findFirstChild("Bow and Arrow"):clone().Parent = player.Backpack
wait(10)
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

This isn't exactly what you're wanting but... if you put this within a script in a 'block'; This will allow players to get whatever item it is. Only if they don't already have it. So they can ONLY GET THE ITEM ONE TIME!
local part = script.Parent
local tool = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):FindFirstChild('ITEMNAMEHERE')
if tool then
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit and hit.Parent then
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if humanoid then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
if player then
if not player.Backpack:FindFirstChild(tool.Name) and not humanoid.Parent:FindFirstChild(tool.Name) then
tool:Clone().Parent = humanoid.Parent
end
end
end
end
end)
end

It did solve my question a bit though. The reason why is that for some reason when the player gets the tool, after like 2 seconds the tool gets removed from their backpack. Can you fix that please? ImprinintInc 18 — 4y
