Issue with charge up meter

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

  1. What do you want to achieve?

I want it so when the player gets the ball, they can hold m1 to charge up a power meter. If they stop holding m1 midway, the kickmeter will stop at the number its at. And when the m1 is let go off, the ShootBall goes off(that works already)

  1. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

When the player gets the ball, the kickmeter starts automaticly and goes up to max value(12)

  1. What solutions have you tried so far?

I have just tried and error with a lot of different things, that didnt work sadly

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = script.Parent
local humanoid = Character.Humanoid

local PlrStats = Player:WaitForChild("PlrStats")

local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local Footwork = (PlrStats.Footwork.Value)

local KickMeter = PlrStats.KickMeter

local debounce = false -- debounce for kickmeter

local kicking = uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe)
	if gpe then return end
	
	while wait(0.1) do
	local hasBall = false
	if Character.HumanoidRootPart:WaitForChild("GetBallHitbox"):FindFirstChild("Football") then
		hasBall = true
		end


		if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and hasBall == true then
			debounce = false

			repeat
				KickMeter.Value += (Footwork) -- The KickMeter max is 12
				wait(0.15)
			until
			KickMeter.Value >= 12 or debounce == true
			if KickMeter.Value > 12 then
				KickMeter.Value = 12
			end
		end
	end
end)



uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
	if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then

		debounce = true
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
		kicking:Disconnect()
		KickMeter.Value = 0
	end
end)

It’s because your debounce is not setup properly. Take a look at how your debounce is functioning and try again.

but did I use your example in my previous topic correctly then, but its just the debounce that is off?

uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and hasBall == true and debounce == false then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
KickMeter.Value = 0
end
end)

uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
debounce = true
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
kicking:Disconnect()
KickMeter.Value = 0
end
end)

uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and debounce == false then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
KickMeter.Value = 0
end
end)

uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and debounce == false then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
KickMeter.Value = 0
end
end)

uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and debounce == false then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickMeter.Value)
KickMeter.Value = 0
end
end)

uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 and debounce == false then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ShootBall:FireServer(KickM

do you just want me to try all these out?
