[SOLVED] Make the player only jump once, even if the spacebar is held down?

I want to (the question), I searched all over for something like this, just found how to make a double jump script, completely contrasting my question.

~~Here's my script~~

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local LshiftKey = Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift
local SpaceKey = Enum.KeyCode.Space

local function IsShiftKeyDown()
    return UserInputService:IsKeyDown(LshiftKey)
end

local function SpaceKeyDown()
    return UserInputService:IsKeyDown(SpaceKey)
end

local function KeyPressed(input)
    if IsShiftKeyDown() then
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 32
    else
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
    end
    if SpaceKeyDown() then
        wait(0.005)
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 32
        wait(0.2)
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
    end
end

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(KeyPressed)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(KeyPressed)

At lines 20 to 25, it fires first time when the player jumps (with the spacebar held), then after > 1 jumps, it fires randomly.

( Important Note: This script is very basic as my scripting knowledge isn't that high (which is probably a problem considering the question). I'll try to understand if I get any complex answers and probably ask dumb questions regarding it. Really hope I was as constructive as possible to my current question. )

The script is a 'Local Script' inside 'game/StarterPlayer/StarterCharacterScripts' shephali 3 — 4y

Local script in StarterGui:

db = true
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
    if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space then
        if db == true then
            plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
            char = plr.Character
            char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0
            db = false
            wait(5)
            db = true
            char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50
        end 
    end
end)

That script should make the player only be able to jump every five seconds.

If this helped please up vote and accept this answer.

All the best,

The script makes me stop when I hold the space bar, then after 5 secs, allows me to jump like bunny hopping shephali 3 — 4y

BIG THANKS to PrismaticFruits for the sample script, which helped me frame my answer

I implemented some parts of Prismatic's Sample script, and it worked! Here's the final answer.

local db = 0
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local LshiftKey = Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift
local SpaceKey = Enum.KeyCode.Space

local function IsShiftKeyDown()
    return UserInputService:IsKeyDown(LshiftKey)
end

local function SpaceKeyDown()
    return UserInputService:IsKeyDown(SpaceKey)
end

local function KeyPressed(input, gameProcessedEvent)
    if IsShiftKeyDown() then
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 32
    else
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
    end
    if SpaceKeyDown() then
        if db == 0 then
        wait(0.005)
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 32
        wait(0.2)
        script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
        script.Parent.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0
        db = 1
        UserInputService.InputEnded:Wait()
        if not SpaceKeyDown() then
        db = 0
        script.Parent.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50   
        end
        end
    end
end

local function changejump(input)
    if not SpaceKeyDown() then
        db = 0
        script.Parent.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50
    end
end

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(KeyPressed)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(KeyPressed)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(changejump)
