Detecting if a function is or isnt running without a variable

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I am having issues with my function breaking, I need a way to detect if it is or isn’t running, I tried making a variable like isRunning but it didn’t work when the script did break, it breaks under extreme lag and I am trying to get it to be called again if it breaks

I have something called isLoading and if it’s false the player doesn’t become the model/creature until they do load so they don’t lose data, until the script finishes isLoading is false and while it’s false it has a wait, I want to also add a thing that if the function isn’t running anymore it calls it again, sorry if this doesn’t make much sense!

Please include the script, we can’t imagine what the problem is without seeing your logic.

Which one? The loop or the function?
Here is the loop

GiveData(Player, Morph)

	wait(1)


	if checkLoad.loaded == false then
		repeat
			wait()
		until checkLoad.loaded == true
	end
5

Here’s the function

local function GiveData(Player, Morph)
	givingData = true
	local Data = DatastoreModule.Read(Player)
	local StatsFolder = Morph.Humanoid.StatsFolder
	local Stats = require(Morph.Humanoid.Stats)
	local PlayerCreature = Data.Creatures[Stats.Creature]

	if PlayerCreature.GrowthStage ~= Stats.GrowthStage then
		checkLoad.loaded = false
		
		if PlayerCreature.GrowthStage == "Adult" and Stats.GrowthStage == "Juvenile" or Stats.GrowthStage == "Child" then
			local NewData = {Location = Vector3.new(PlayerCreature.Position.X, PlayerCreature.Position.Y, PlayerCreature.Position.Z), FromData = true}
			DoGrowth(Player, Morph, NewData)
		end
		
		if PlayerCreature.GrowthStage == "Juvenile" and Stats.GrowthStage == "Child" then
		local NewData = {Location = Vector3.new(PlayerCreature.Position.X, PlayerCreature.Position.Y, PlayerCreature.Position.Z), FromData = true}
			DoGrowth(Player, Morph, NewData)
		end
	end

	StatsFolder.Day.Value = PlayerCreature.Days
	if StatsFolder.Day.Value < 1 then
		StatsFolder.Day.Value = 1
	end
	StatsFolder.Parent.Health = PlayerCreature.Health
	StatsFolder.Hunger.Value = PlayerCreature.Hunger
	if StatsFolder:FindFirstChild("Oxygen") then
		StatsFolder.Oxygen.Value = PlayerCreature.Oxygen
	end
	StatsFolder.Stamina.Value = PlayerCreature.Stamina
	StatsFolder.Thirst.Value = PlayerCreature.Thirst

	if PlayerCreature.GrowthStage == Stats.GrowthStage then
		StatsFolder.Growth.Value = PlayerCreature.Growth
		checkLoad.loaded = true
	end
	givingData = false
end
