Need help putting a delay on this taser

tignif · May 23, 2020, 3:20am

What do you want to achieve? I want there to be a cooldown reload for the taser
What is the issue? There’s no delay for the reload for this taser

What solutions have you tried so far? Tried editing the TimeVal but the clicking R 2x overrides it.

use your usual old debounce method, wrap everything in a debounce so nothings overwrite everytime, make sure you make the debounce check on the server so exploiters cant abuse spam

tignif · May 23, 2020, 3:38am

I’m not really experience in scripting so do you have a good video on how I would do that or good article I could read up on? Also thank you for your assistance!

I saw that but how do incorporated into the script, since it’s not a touchpart.

Quwanterz · May 23, 2020, 3:53am

I don’t know the line of code where the reload is, but essentially add a debounce when a player reloads.

KdudeDev · May 23, 2020, 6:43am

It doesn’t matter that its using a Touch, its just the example given.
You could also do this with a GUI button, where you don’t want players to spam it like crazy.
Example:

local GUI = script.Parent
local Button = GUI.ImageButton

local Debounce = 1

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if Debounce == 1 then --if the Debounce is default then
        Debounce = 2 --right after that 'if' set Debounce to not be default
        --make the button do its job
        wait(1) --this would be how long the debounce is 
        Debounce = 1 --return Debounce to its original value
    end
end)

You are basically telling the script that it cannot be repeated again until Debounce has been set back to 1. You could also use true and false instead of 1 and 2, but I prefer numbers.
