Dodgeball Charging Spam

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, this code is supposed to charge the ball when you hold down the right mouse and resets the charge when you release I thought it was working but when you repeatedly stop and start the charge the next time you charge the ball is prints in the console very fast and charges the ball almost instantly. The code isn’t finished and a little messy but I would appreciate any help.

local ThrowBallRm = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallRemoteEvents.ThrowBall


ThrowBallRm.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, mousePosition)

	local rayBehavior = fastcast.newBehavior()

	local params = RaycastParams.new()
	params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
	params.FilterDescendantsInstances = {plr.Character:GetDescendants()}

	rayBehavior.RaycastParams = params
	rayBehavior.Acceleration = Vector3.new(0, -50, 0)
	rayBehavior.AutoIgnoreContainer = true
	rayBehavior.CosmeticBulletTemplate = ball
	rayBehavior.CosmeticBulletContainer = workspace.Dodgeballs

	local dir = (mousePosition - plr.Character.Dodgeball.Position).Unit

	local activeCast = caster:Fire(plr.Character.Dodgeball.Position, dir, charge, rayBehavior)

	
	plr.Character.Dodgeball:Destroy()

	task.wait(1) -- Keep the wait to prevent immediate pickup
	plr.Character.HasBall.Value = false
end)

local chargeEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallRemoteEvents.ChargeBall
local cancelEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallRemoteEvents.CancelCharge

local cancel = false



local firstCharge = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallVFX.Fire1
local secondCharge = game.ReplicatedStorage.BallVFX.Fire2


local function enableVFX (vfxObject)
	for i, v in vfxObject:GetChildren() do
		if v:IsA("ParticleEmitter") then
			v.Enabled = true
		end
	end
end

local function disableVFX (vfxObject)
	for i, v in vfxObject:GetDescendants() do

	end

From a quick view at the code, it seems you need to simply add more checks and reset the ball’s charge progression in more areas that it may be lacking in, like after throwing the dodgeball for example.
