How do I make my script return to the start?

[InkBrains]

Hi, this is probably a really stupid question, but I’m new to scripting and I don’t know how to do what I want to do.

Basically, I want to make a Text Button that is part of an admin gui where you are able to spawn in zombies. I want you to be able to spawn and remove said zombies with the same button, I just need the script to restart once the button has been clicked for the second time

Heres what I have so far:

Set debounce to false after the final task.wait(1) in order to let mouseclicks through.
You’re going to get a few memory leaks with this because you’re running a connection instead a connection (and they are the same connection too, which is unnecessary). You can clean up your code by keeping only 1 connection and storing the number of clicks. Here’s some more optimised code:

local counter = 1
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if counter % 2 == 1 then -- its odd
		zombieEvent:FireServer()
		script.Parent.BackgroundColor = INSERTBACKGROUNDHERE
		script.Parent.Text = "Add Zombies"
		task.wait(1)
		
	else
		zombieRemoveEvent:FireServer()
		script.Parent.BackgroundColor = INSERTBACKGROUNDHERE
		script.Parent.Text = "Remove Zombies"
		task.wait(1)
	end
	
	counter += 1
end)

By the way, please refrain from sending screenshots of code and instead paste code in code blocks (surround your code with three backticks at the start and end)

Hello, you can use functions to do it.
to make it work you can do like

local deb = false

function ChangeZombies()
	if deb == false then
		deb = true
		-- do code for spawning zombies
	else
		deb = false
		-- do code for despawning zombies
	end
end

every time you call this function it spawns and then despawns, repeating all code.

You can also save a really, really small amount of execution time by doing:

local function changeZombies()
	if not deb then
		-- do code for spawning zombies
	else
		-- do code for despawning zombies
	end
    deb = not deb
end

Thank you so much @Morkich1 and @ValtryekRBLX, I literally would have never figured this out by myself!
