Clicking The Switch Again

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1
  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want it so if you click the button again, it will turn back to it’s current state.
  2. What is the issue?
    I don’t know any functions that do such thing.
  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    Nothing Really.
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

for i, switch in CollectionService:GetTagged("Switch 1")  do
	local ClickDectect = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
	ClickDectect.Parent = switch
	
	
	ClickDectect.MouseClick:Connect(function()
		switch.Color = Color3.fromRGB(91, 154, 76)
	end)
end

That’s my script above…
How can I rechange it so when you click it again, the color of the switch changes?

For clarification do you want it to change back to its original color, or to a different, random color.

#3

To it’s original color
and you can tell how to with a different color

#4

and you can tell how to with a different color

What do you mean by this?

#5

Like if you want too ig, just get to the point.

#6

ok.

I was thinking that you could insert a color3 value into the switch to save it’s previous color, and then access it later to switch the color back to it’s original color, you would also need a bool value to know what color the switch is currently.

For ensample:

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

for i, switch in CollectionService:GetTagged("Switch 1")  do
	local ClickDectect = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
	ClickDectect.Parent = switch
	
	--looks for the values
	local switchedcolor = switch:FindFirstChild("BoolValue")
	local originalcolor = switch:FindFirstChild("ColorValue")
	
	if switchedcolor == nil or originalcolor == nil then
		--if no values exists, creates the values
		local switchedcolor = Instance.new("BoolValue",switch)
		switchedcolor.Name = "BoolValue"
		switchedcolor.Value = false
		local originalcolor = Instance.new("Color3Value",switch)
		originalcolor.Name = "ColorValue"
		originalcolor.Value = switch.Color
	end

	ClickDectect.MouseClick:Connect(function()
		if switchedcolor == false then
			--sets switch to desired color
			switch.Color = Color3.fromRGB(91, 154, 76)
			switchedcolor = true
		else
			--sets switch to original color
			switch.Color = originalcolor.Value
			switchedcolor = false
		end
	end)
end

Just so you know I never tested this so let me know if it doesn’t work. Also, this isn’t the best way to do this, a more optimized way would be to use OOP and metatables to do this but that would take too long for me to do.
