Why does this cause a game script timeout whenever it's activated?
This is reposted btw
function module:Breathing(Player,Bool)
local Character = Player.Character
local plrData = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerData:FindFirstChild(Player.UserId)
print(CooldownModule:IsOnCooldown(Player.Character,"Breathing"))
if Bool and not CooldownModule:IsOnCooldown(Player.Character,"Breathing") and not CooldownModule:IsOnCooldown(Player.Character,"Active") then
print(Bool)
local Value = Instance.new("StringValue",Character)
Value.Name = "Breathing"
while Character:FindFirstChild("Breathing") and Bool do
if plrData.Breath.Value < 100 then
plrData.Breath.Value = plrData.Breath.Value + 1
wait(0.1)
end
end
elseif not Bool and Character:FindFirstChild("Breathing") then
CooldownModule:CreateCooldown(Character,"Breathing",0.2)
for i, v in pairs(Character:GetChildren()) do
if v.Name == "Breathing" then
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end

Which line does it say the timeout was on? LoveingLiamGuy 0 — 4y

Also, you don't have to use 0.1. You can leave at as wait() and it will default to the smallest value possible. LoveingLiamGuy 0 — 4y

The wait function is inside the if statement code block. Here's a summary example:
local a=0
while true do--start loop
if a==1 then-- since a==0 it skips this if statement
wait(0.1);-- since the if statement is skipped, this wait function wont run, there's no cool down because while loops run really fast, thereby causing a timeout
end;
end;
I suggest placing your wait function outside of the if statement, so that regardless of the condition, there will be a cool down to prevent timeout.
