How can I make this debounce work for the click?

  1. What do you want to achieve? A debounce that stops this script from spamming.

  2. What is the issue? There’s a debounce on message but the players can still spam click to fire the remote event.
    here’s what happens:

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? none because I dont understand it

here’s my code:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Explode = RS.Remotes:WaitForChild("Explode")
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Animation = Instance.new("Animation")
Animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://"
local debounce = false
local connect

player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
	local spell = string.lower(msg)
	if spell == "infalmmeatur" then
		if not debounce then
			debounce = true
			if Character.Practitioner.Value == true then
				if Character.Magic.Value > 65 then
					connect = mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
						local position = mouse.Hit.p
						local Anim = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(Animation)
						Anim:Play()
						Explode:FireServer(position)
					end)
				end
			end
		end
	end
	task.wait(10)
	debounce = false
end)

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

	end
end)

just set debounce to false inside the if statement, not outside

oh my bad, I feel a bit blind right now

you need to put the debounce inside the Button1Down connection

that’s why you can still spam
