A case where ProximityPrompt is firing .Triggered twice instead of once

[Daw588]

I had a found a case where ProximityPrompt will fire .Triggered event twice instead of once even though I triggered it once.

---

Expected behavior: ProximityPrompt fires .Triggered event once.

Current behavior: ProximityPrompt fires .Triggered event twice in a special case that I found.

---

This piece of code will work properly:

local prompt = Instance.new("ProximityPrompt")
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
	print("I am triggered once")
end)
prompt.Parent = script.Parent

---

However this case that I created fails to work properly as stated in the title.

To add to this, it does not occur if you add any delay between the creation & event connection and setting the prompt’s parent. For example, adding task.wait() before setting the parent OR wrapping it in task.defer will fix the issue.

Sorry to revive a very old post. To close the loop, I’m commenting to let you know this issue should no longer happen. Thanks!
