Request System help needed!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Well, I am making a request system where when you type something into a UI, it will show it onto a scrolling frame surface gui.

It isn’t really working, nor printing anything, could anybody help? :smiley:

This really isn’t a popular thing that people would script so found no help on the DevForum so far.

Hope you can help!

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local debounce = false

script.Parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Text"):Connect(function()
    script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
        if debounce == false then            
            debounce = true
            local clone = game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.Frame.ScrollingFrame.TextLabel1:Clone()
            clone.Text = (player.Name.."Has Requested a"..script.Parent.Text)        
        end
    end)
end)

if debounce == true  then
    wait(15)
    debounce = false
end```

the wrong here is that you are not setting it inside the if debounce was false statement set it inside and it’ll work also I recommend not putting events inside of events

I have tried rewriting the debounce as suggested, it isn’t working my friend, any other suggestions?

Maybe this (note that the Script works fine for me when I tested it on Baseplate without cloned part):

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local debounce = Instance.new("BoolValue")
debounce.Name = "debounce"
debounce.Parent = script

    script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
        if not debounce.Value then --Means basically if debounce.Value == false then
            debounce.Value = true
            local clone = game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.Frame.ScrollingFrame.TextLabel1:Clone()
            clone.Text = (player.Name.."Has Requested a"..script.Parent.Text)        
        end
    end)

debounce.Changed:Connect(function()
if debounce.Value then
wait(15)
debounce.Value = false
end
end)
