You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    A solution to my problen.
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

If statement not checking after “and” and script sometimes not running after task.wait

local Object = script.Parent.Handle.Cube
local owner = Object:GetAttribute(“Owner”)
local db = true
local r = require(game:GetService(“ReplicatedFirst”):WaitForChild(“ModuleRagdoll”))

Object.Touched:Connect(function(BasePart)
	if BasePart.Name == "HumanoidRootPart" and Object.Velocity.Magnitude > 20 and db == true then
		
		local  char = BasePart.Parent
		local Torso = char:FindFirstChild("Torso")
		
		if char.Name ~= owner and Torso:GetAttribute("Ragdolled") == true then return end 
			db = false
			
			local hum = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
			hum:TakeDamage(25)
		
			r.RagdollCharacter(char)
			
			task.wait(2)
			
		   r.UnRagdollCharacter(char)
		end
end)
  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I did but I found nothing.

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

Maybe try:

Object.Touched:Connect(function(BasePart)
    if BasePart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
       local character = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(BasePart.Parent)
       if BasePart.Name == "HumanoidRootPart" and Object.Velocity.Magnitude > 20  then
          if db then
            -- do stuff
          end
       end
    end	
end)

Sorry for responding late, it works but sometimes the script still doesn’t run after task.wait()

This is because you don’t set the debounce back to ‘true’.

Updated Code:

local Object = script.Parent.Handle.Cube
local owner = Object:GetAttribute("Owner")
local db = true
local r = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedFirst"):WaitForChild("ModuleRagdoll"))

Object.Touched:Connect(function(BasePart)
	if BasePart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and Object.Velocity.Magnitude > 20 and db == true then

		local  char = BasePart.Parent
		local Torso = char:FindFirstChild("Torso")

		if char.Name ~= owner and Torso:GetAttribute("Ragdolled") == true then return end 
		db = false

		local hum = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
		hum:TakeDamage(25)

		r.RagdollCharacter(char)

		task.wait(2)

		r.UnRagdollCharacter(char)
		db = true -- set debounce to true
	end
end)

I forgot to tell that this object is cloned every time it’s used so it doesn’t really matter if I set it back to true, it’s basically a tool which launches this part if that makes sense
