Need help with debouncing a coin script

When a cloned coin is picked up it runs a counter and then determines when a chest will spawn. I’ve made the coins transparency to 1 while the coin sound plays and then clone:Destroy() when ended.

I’m thinking while the coin is transparent my counter is still picking up the coin. I need a way to tell it to ignore the coin it’s already counted. A wait() simply won’t work as if a new chest is picked up while waiting it won’t be counted. Any ideas?

I picked up 1 coin!

	clone.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if not clone:GetAttribute("Touched")then
			clone:SetAttribute("Touched", true)
			if counter ~= 0 then
				counter = counter - 1 -- still Hitting multiple times
				print(counter)
			else
				SpawnChest()
				counter = 20
				print("counter is reset to 20")
			end
		end
		clone:SetAttribute("Touched", false)
	end)

Somewhere you could put

 if Coin.Transparency ~= 0 then

You ticked your own reply - which was saying that my reply was the solution, as the solution, instead of the reply I put :slight_smile:
