I'm trying to make a script that makes the character model dash backwards when i double tap S. I managed to make the double tap part work but the problem is that the dash animation replays every single time i double tap S.

01local UIS = game:GetService('UserInputService')
02local replicatedStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
03local backDashEvent = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild('DashEvents').BackDashEvent
04 
05 
06local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
07local char = player.Character
08local hum = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
09local root = char:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
10 
11 
12local animation = Instance.new('Animation')
13animation.AnimationId = 'rbxassetid://04793471389'
14local load = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
15 
16 
17local check = false
18 
19 
20UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
21    if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S and not check and not gameProcessed then
22        check = true
23        wait(0.2)
24        check = false
25    end
26end)
27 
28 
29UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
30    if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S and check and not gameProcessed then
31 
32        load:Play()    <----- the animation replays every time i double tap S
33        backDashEvent:FireServer(root)
34 
35        check = false
36    end
37end)

Line 32 i believe is where the problem is. I understand that i need some sort of debounce to put a cooldown on the animation but i'm not sure where i can insert it.

You can use animation.Stopped, then animation:Stop() I think. matiss112233 258 — 5y

you're right you do need a debounce

01local UIS = game:GetService('UserInputService')
02local replicatedStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
03local backDashEvent = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild('DashEvents').BackDashEvent
04 
05 
06local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
07local char = player.Character
08local hum = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
09local root = char:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
10 
11 
12local animation = Instance.new('Animation')
13animation.AnimationId = 'rbxassetid://04793471389'
14local load = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
15 
16 
17local check = false
18local db = true--debounce
19local cooldown = 5 - cooldown for debounce
20 
21 
22UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
23    if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S and not check and not gameProcessed and db then
24        check = true
25        wait(0.2)
26        check = false
27    end
28end)
29 
30 
31UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
32    if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S and check and not gameProcessed and db then
33 
34        load:Play()    <----- the animation replays every time i double tap S
35        backDashEvent:FireServer(root)
36 
37        check = false
38    db = false-- now you can't fire until its true
39    wait(cooldown)
40    db = true
41    end
42end)

I didn't test it out but this should be working

Thanks, it worked! Sorukan 240 — 5y

I think this will work:

01local animTrack = load:GetPlayingAnimationTracks ( ) --we need AnimationTracks because it has Stopped event
02 
03UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
04    if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S and check and not gameProcessed then
05        if animTrack.Stopped then --check the AnimationTracks is stopped or not
06            animTrack:Play()
07        end
08 
09        backDashEvent:FireServer(root)
10        check = false
11    end
12end)

AnimationTrack
