So currently I’m working on my shotgun and I’m having a problem with the player clicking the R key multiple times. I bind the R key to the player when they equip the weapon. My shotgun’s max ammo value is 3, is their a way I can limit the amount of times the player can click the R key.
– Here is the Problem with the Shotgun UI
– Which videogame is this from ?
– I clicked the R Key 7 times now the Ammo has a Value of 21
– This is the Code I used
-- Local Script
-- This will reload when the Player clicks R and the Ammo is 0
function reload(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
if actionName == ActionReload and inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
if Ammo == 0 then
print("You are Reloading")
ShotgunReload:Play()
wait(2.8)
Ammo = Ammo + 3
updateUIR()
updateText()
end
end
end
I’m having a hard time understanding what you mean, but do you want them not to be able to reload while already in a reload state? If so then use a debounce
local IsInReloadState;
function reload(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
if actionName == ActionReload and inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
if Ammo == 0 then
if(not IsInReloadState) then
IsInReloadState = true;
print("You are Reloading")
ShotgunReload:Play()
wait(2.8)
Ammo = Ammo + 3
updateUIR()
updateText()
IsInReloadState = false;
end;
end
end
end
If this isn’t what you want, can you please explain a little more?
Use math.clamp to limit a number within a range.
Example:
local Ammo = 2
local MaxAmmo = 3
local MinAmmo = 0
local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local function onAction(Name, State, Input)
if State == Enum.UserInputState.Begin and Name == "Reload" then
-- do whatever
Ammo = math.clamp(Ammo + 3, MinAmmo, MaxAmmo)
-- returns 3 because the highest value that can return is 3
end
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("Reload", onAction, false, Enum.KeyCode.R)
So whenever the player clicks R they’re supposed to reload if their Ammo = 0. However, they’re able to click R multiple times instead of just once if their Ammo = 0 to reload.
