My ideal is: A cowboy tower, he shoot 6 times at the enemy then he will do a reload animation then he continue shoot at the enemy but i have no ideal how to do that here my code:

function tower.Attack(newTower, player)
	local config = newTower.Config
	local target = tower.FindTarget(newTower, config.Range.Value, config.TargetMode.Value)
	
	if target and target:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and target.Humanoid.Health > 0 then

		local targetCFrame = CFrame.lookAt(newTower.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
				
		newTower.HumanoidRootPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = targetCFrame
		
		animateTowerEvent:FireAllClients(newTower, "Attack", target)
		
		wait(config.AnimationDelay.Value)

		target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(config.Damage.Value)
		
	end
	
	task.wait(config.Cooldown.Value)
	
	if newTower and newTower.Parent then
		tower.Attack(newTower, player)
	end
end

i know how to make the tower damage the enemy 1 time then cooldown but i have no ideal how to make the tower deal damage multiple time then cooldown. Any suggestions?

try this

function tower.Attack(newTower, player,amount)
    local multiplier = amount or 1
	local config = newTower.Config
	local target = tower.FindTarget(newTower, config.Range.Value, config.TargetMode.Value)
	
	if target and target:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and target.Humanoid.Health > 0 then
       for i = 1,multiplier do
		local targetCFrame = CFrame.lookAt(newTower.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
				
		newTower.HumanoidRootPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = targetCFrame
		
		animateTowerEvent:FireAllClients(newTower, "Attack", target)
		
		wait(config.AnimationDelay.Value)

		target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(config.Damage.Value)
		end
	end
    task.wait(config.Cooldown.Value)
	if newTower and newTower.Parent then
		tower.Attack(newTower, player)
	end
end

and make sure to send multiplier at end like this
tower.Attack(“Cowboy”,game.Players.madonchik123,5)

    local multiplier = amount or 1
	local config = newTower.Config
	local target = tower.FindTarget(newTower, config.Range.Value, config.TargetMode.Value)
	
	if target and target:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and target.Humanoid.Health > 0 then
       for i = 1,multiplier do
		local targetCFrame = CFrame.lookAt(newTower.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
				
		newTower.HumanoidRootPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = targetCFrame
		
		animateTowerEvent:FireAllClients(newTower, "Attack", target)
		
		wait(config.AnimationDelay.Value)
           if target:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		       target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(config.Damage.Value)
           end
		end
	end
    task.wait(config.Cooldown.Value)
	if newTower and newTower.Parent then
		tower.Attack(newTower, player)
