Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello. Im trying to make a system that activates a highlight on the object that you hover your mouse on and press f. I can toggle it by pressing f on the object again, but the problem is that if i change the object i press f on the highlight on the old object is still there.

Localscript:

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
		local object = player:GetMouse().Target
		local high = object:FindFirstChildOfClass("Highlight")
		local oldhigh = oldobject:FindFirstChildOfClass("Highligt")
		
		if not high then
			high = Instance.new("Highlight",object)
			high.FillColor = Color3.fromRGB(38, 114, 255)
			high.OutlineColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
			high.Enabled = not high.Enabled
		end 

		high.Enabled = not high.Enabled
		if object.Changed then
			delay(0.5, function()
			local oldobject = object
			end)
			not oldhigh.Enabled
		end
		end
	end)

I made a post that was about toggling the property on and off before, now its about disabling the old property

you spelled “Highlight” wrong here

Also, looking at the code quickly you should probably be using a table to track what objects you want to get highlighted because right now you’re highlighting literally everything in the game. Try keeping a whitelist of what should be highlighted (player characters excluding your own) and linking a highlight instance to that player to index if they are being hovered over.
