You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want my code to print out u loss or u win after stepping on a part but i dont want the part to be clicked 100 times in a second so i tried to use debounce but it didnt work .
  2. What is the issue? Include enough details if possible!
    Cant debounce script
  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    I tried editing the debounce script a little nothing chaned i think it has to do with the print script im trying to use
    After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

Script: local part = script.Parent

local debounce = false
part.touched:connect(function()
if debounce then return end
debounce = true
math.random(1,20)
if 1 then
print(“u loss”)
if else
print (“u win”)

	wait(3)
debounce = false
end)

I just like shoving 232 if statements.

local part = script.Parent
--part

local debounce = true
part.Touched:Connect(function() --if touched then connect
	if debounce == true then-- makes it happens once
		debounce = false
		--set it so it doesn't repeat
		local randommath =  math.random(1,20)
		--make a varible and get random #
		if randommath == 1 then
			-- if 1
			print("u lost")
		elseif randommath ~= 1 then
			-- if not 1 so anything else
			print("u win")	
		end
		wait(3)
		debounce = true
		--set it back to repeat
		end
	end)

ima shove everything since I am to lazy to explain and watch no one reply.

I would recommend to change the debouce to debouce = {} and change the code like this:

local part = script.Parent
--part

local debounce = {}
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --if touched then connect
	if debounce[hit.Parent] == nil then-- makes it happens once
		debounce[hit.Parent] = part.Parent
		--set it so it doesn't repeat
		local randommath =  math.random(1,20)
		--make a varible and get random #
		if randommath == 1 then
			-- if 1
			print("u lost")
		elseif randommath ~= 1 then
			-- if not 1 so anything else
			print("u win")	
		end
		task.wait(3)
		debouce[hit.Parent] = nil
		--set it back to repeat
	end
end)

This makes the debounce ‘local’ so to say (for each player a different debounce). Not sure if that’s what you’re going for, but it won’t hurt to learn this functionality now.
