Debounce not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

My debounce is not working after following the format of serveral other posts.

When the script is run, the prints are printing in a “1” “2” “1” “2” order.

local db = false
script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if db == false then
		db = true
		print("1")
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Sounds.Click:Play()
		if script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.Text == "Equip" then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Equip:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer, script.Parent.Name)
		elseif script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.Text == "Unequip" then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Equip:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer, script.Parent.Name, "Un")
		end
		print("2")
		wait(5)
		db = false
	end
end)

This can happen because of your other Scripts, could u send what is above and under your Script. It could be that u need to use connection.

This is the whole script, and the only debounce is in the problematic area.

script.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Sounds.Click:Play()
	if game.ReplicatedStorage.Mobs.Spawnable:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Name) then
		local info = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info
		local tower = game.ReplicatedStorage.Mobs.Spawnable:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Name)
		info.Damage.Text = tower["0"].Damage.Value
		info.Range.Text = tower["0"].RangeValue.Value
		info.Firerate.Text =tower["0"].Firerate.Value
		info.NameText.Text = tower.Name
	end
end) 
local db = false
script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if db == false then
		db = true
		print("1")
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Sounds.Click:Play()
		if script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.Text == "Equip" then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Equip:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer, script.Parent.Name)
		elseif script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Info.Equip.Text == "Unequip" then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Equip:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer, script.Parent.Name, "Un")
		end
		print("2")
		wait(5)
		db = false
	end
end)

What do you want to do, that a Player cant click the Button for 5 Seconds? I tried it it worked or is the script running the MouseButton1Event two times?

#5

It fires twice by running through the entire thing, printing 1 and 2, the runs again, printing 1 and 2 after.

#6

This is the output.

Could u send the Place? Do you have more other scripts there what is connecting to this script? Do you accidently have the same Script in another Localscript?

#8

The outputs are coming from the same script, ruling out a duplicate script. This combined with being a simple mousebutton1 event rules out another script being connected to it.

#9

This happens all the Time with PlayerAdded, i think this just happens in Studio.

#10

I figured out the problem; it was my bad
When the game started a gui with script in was cloned, making the event fire twice.
Thank you for the help though.
