Why is this debounce cooldown for my animation not working?
What I want to do is make a 3 second cool down for each time the animation plays when I left Click.
local debounce = false
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function(Mouse)
Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
if not debounce then
debounce = true
end
print("work!")
animation = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Animation)
animation:Play()
wait(3)
debounce = false
end)
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
animation:Stop()
end)
Help.

Your debounce is useless if you don't have an if statement that restricts the event from passing through.
Understanding Debounces
local debounce = true
MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if (debounce == true) then
debounce = false
print("Hello!")
end
end)
This line of code will only print "Hello!" once because right when you click, your debounce turns false. This means when you click again it'll check if your debounce (which is false) is true.
In order to make it say "Hello!" again, we must make the debounce true again. That is also where we can add wait to prevent it from being clicked multiple times.
local debounce = true
MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if (debounce == true) then
debounce = false
print("Hello!")
wait(3)
debounce = true
end
end)
