Ok, so I have 2 functions in this script. When you equip a tool it will wait 1 second and then change the value of a variable and the other functions wait till the value of the variable is changed and it runs. It works now, but It's not professional and very good in my opinion

Any other way of doing this?

Local script Inside tool

local part = game.Workspace.Part
local tool = script.Parent
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
    wait(1)
    b = 1
    print("ready")
end)
function lol()
    if b == 1 then
    print("gone")
    script.Parent:Destroy()
    end
end
part.TouchEnded:Connect(lol)

I just want 1 second delay for the "lol" function

    print("HI")
end

delay(.5, lol) 
    if b == 1 then
    print("gone")
    script.Parent:Destroy()
    end
end
part.TouchEnded:Connect(lol)

Added an extra end. Remove that end on line 18. This code that I gave to you was untested, so it might error out. JesseSong 3916 — 2y

Use delay.

Example:

local function lol()
    print("HI")
end

delay(1, lol) -- call on function lol() in 1 second.
