Debounce not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, there. I’m trying to make this button that’s repeatable but it doesn’t seem to be working. There’s no error popping up in error. I’m just trying to make this to work, i even made a post, no one responded to that. probably no one will respond to this one also

Are you requiring this ModuleScript?

#3

Yes, i’m using it for a game. And, when it’s done, i’m planning it to make open-sourced.

#4

I only see that you are setting denounce to 1, but you are not checking the debounce.

#5

How will i do that? I’m sorry, i’m only starting to learn lua

#6

You would do this:

if debounce == 0 then -- check
    debounce = 1 -- set to 1
    -- insert code
    debounce = 0 -- reset to 0
end
#7

Yep, it stil doesn’t work… It just seems impossible to do it

#8

Are you requiring the first script too?

#9

there’s a few topics you might want to consider before creating another one.

And here:

if debounce == 0 then – check
debounce = 1 – set to 1
– insert code
debounce = 0 – reset to 0
end

remember to yield somewhere in there, just mentioning that to clarify the outline.

I’m sorry i don’t which keywords i will use because i don’t understand lua quite yet

#11

Yes, the player won’t be able to press it again without it

#12

It still doesn’t work. I tried to put in both of the scripts, it still doesn’t work

#14

This script will tell what the obstacle will do:

if debounce == 0 then
	debounce = 1
end

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

 -- Variables
local Obstacle = game.Workspace.Game.Obstacles.ObstaclePartA

local ObstacleTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
	30,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Quint,
	Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
	0,
	false,
	0
)

local Functions = {}

-- Execute
function Functions:Execute()
	print("Button with the ID" .. script.Parent.Name .."was pressed")
	local ObstacleTween = TweenService:Create(Obstacle, ObstacleTweenInfo, {Transparency = 0, Position = Vector3.new(-86.45, -4.5, 75)})
	ObstacleTween:Play()
	wait(2)
	debounce = 0
end

Button Actions:

-- Button Tween
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local ButtonStages = {
	DefaultColor = Color3.fromRGB(138, 255, 146),
	PressedColor = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
}

local ButtonTweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
	.5,
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
	Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
	0,
	false,
	0
)

-- Variables
local ButtonActions = {}
local ButtonsFolder = workspace:WaitForChild("Game"):WaitForChild("Buttons")

-- Function
local function GetButtonByID(id)
	for _, child in ipairs(ButtonsFolder:GetChildren()) do
		child:WaitForChild("ID")
		if child.ID.Value == id then
			return child
		end
	end
end

function ButtonActions:Run(id)
	local button = GetButtonByID(id)
	if button then
		button:WaitForChild("Button")
		local ButtonTween = TweenService:Create(button.Button, ButtonTweenInfo, {Position = button.Button.Position + Vector3.new(0, -.3, 0), Color = ButtonStages.PressedColor})
		ButtonTween:Play()
		require(script:WaitForChild(tostring(id))):Execute()
	end
end

-- Return
return ButtonActions

Button Handler: (i forgot to add this earlier)

local ButtonActions = require(script.Parent.ButtonActions)

local Buttons = {}
local ButtonHandler = {}

local buttonsFolder: Folder = workspace:WaitForChild("Game"):WaitForChild("Buttons")

local function FindButton(id)
	for _, child in ipairs(buttonsFolder:GetChildren()) do
		if child.Name == "ButtonModel" then
			child:WaitForChild("ID")
			if child.ID.Value == id then
				return child
			end
		end
	end	
end

function ButtonHandler:Init()
	for _, child in ipairs(buttonsFolder:GetChildren()) do
		if child.Name == "ButtonModel" then
			child:WaitForChild("ID")
			Buttons[child.ID.Value] = false
		end
	end
end

local OnChildAdded = function (child)
	child:WaitForChild("Button")
	child:WaitForChild("ID")
	child.Button.Touched:Connect(function ()
		if Buttons[child.ID.Value] == true then return end
		Buttons[child.ID.Value] = true
		ButtonActions:Run(child.ID.Value)
	end)
end

buttonsFolder.ChildAdded:Connect(OnChildAdded)
for _, child in ipairs(buttonsFolder:GetChildren()) do
	OnChildAdded(child)
end

return ButtonHandler
