Where do I put a wait in this script so people don't spam the regen?
I've got a script here that takes a humble from server storage and copies it then places it into workspace. However, I don't know where to put a wait so people don't spam the regen. Where do I put it? Everywhere I put it, the script just ignores it and moves on?
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(GetCar)
Mod = game.ServerStorage.Humvee
clone = Mod:clone()
clone.Parent = workspace
clone:MakeJoints()
end)

Simply putting wait() anywhere will not work, because a new thread is created anyway when the player clicks on the mouse again. What you need to do is use a variable to make sure there's a delay before it can be pressed again, like this:
local debounce = false --Set up the variable
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(GetCar)
if debounce == false then
debounce = true --The function can't run again until this is turned back to false
Mod = game.ServerStorage.Humvee
clone = Mod:clone()
clone.Parent = workspace
clone:MakeJoints()
wait(3) --Here you can adjust the time it takes before you can click it again
debounce = false --Debounce is false again, you can now click it again
end
end)
