Touched event inside of tool activated

[RykaxYT (Rykax)]

Hello there, I ran into an issue while making a mining system, where the touched event completely ignores the tool.Activated function. I’ve tried many combinations and looked around, however I couldn’t find a definite answer. The script is below. Thanks in advance.

local tool = script.Parent
local canSwing = true

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if canSwing then
		canSwing = false

		hitPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --This one
			if hit.Name == "IronPart" then
				print("Iron Mined")
			end
		end)

		wait(1)
		canSwing = true
	end
end)

Stop creating event connections inside of other event connections.

local tool = script.Parent
local canSwing = true

hitPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --This one
	if hit.Name == "IronPart" and not canSwing then
		print("Iron Mined")
	end
end)

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if canSwing then
		canSwing = false

		task.wait(1)

		canSwing = true
	end
end)

Ideally you should have a variabke which tracks whether the tool is activated or not (unless there is some kinda property of Tool which does that)
