On Touch block issue. Spams item when touched?
I have a touch script where if you touch the part, it takes a model from repstore and parents it to workspace, sort of like a regen button. problem is that, when you touch it, it keeps on spawning the item from repstore constantly until you step off the block. help.
parent = script.Parent function onTouch(hit) wait(1) local ItemInStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Floaty; local P = ItemInStorage:Clone(); P.Parent = workspace; wait(10) game.Workspace.Floaty:Destroy() end parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

You might want to add a debounce, or a cooldown in other words, so It might look like this
local debounce = false
parent = script.Parent
function onTouch(hit)
if debounce == false then
debounce = true
wait(1)
local ItemInStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Floaty;
local P = ItemInStorage:Clone();
P.Parent = workspace;
wait(10)
game.Workspace.Floaty:Destroy()
end
wait(10)--change this number to how long you want the cooldown to be
debounce = false
end
parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)
Forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm pretty new to coding myself, but this should work

And i just noticed an error with the debounce so I moved it up to the beginning of the if statement and it works now, if you use the edited code it should work jediplocoon 877 — 4y
