Task.wait should not be called on a thread that is already 'waiting' in the task library

I want to make a Control The Points minigame, and I’m running this coroutine that runs an animation for when a team is claiming the point, if a different team comes in the point, I can yield it and stuff.

The thing is in the coroutine, I need to run a task.wait() in the for loop so it takes the right amount of time to capture the point. And due to a function checking which team is the most in the circle for every circle this error is popping up and I can’t think of a loop around it.

Can someone help?

local claimingf = coroutine.create(function(team)
				local capturebar = v.ball.gui.CaptureProgressBar
				if claiming == false then
					claiming = true
					currentlyClaiming = team
					capturebar.Bar.BackgroundColor3 = game.ReplicatedStorage.CONFIGURATION.COLORS[team].Value
					capturebar.Bar.Size = UDim2.new(0, 0, 1.055, 0)
					for i = 0, 1, 0.01 do
						task.wait(timetoclaim/100)
						capturebar.Bar.Size = UDim2.new(i, 0, 1.055, 0)
					end
					v.claimed.Value = team
					v.circle.Color = game.ReplicatedStorage.CONFIGURATION.COLORS[team].Value
					for _, b in pairs(v.ball:GetChildren()) do
						b.Color = game.ReplicatedStorage.CONFIGURATION.COLORS[team].Value
					end
					claiming = false
				end
			end)
			local function checkAndClaim()
				local hteam, highest = 0, ""
				for _, t in pairs(game.ReplicatedStorage.Teams:GetChildren()) do
					local amountfromteam = 0
					for _, e in pairs(v.playersInArea:GetChildren()) do
						if e.Value == t.Name then
							amountfromteam += 1
						end
					end 
					if amountfromteam > hteam then
						if highest ~= t.Name then
							hteam = amountfromteam
							highest = t.Name
						end
					end
				end
				if highest ~= "" then
					if highest ~= v.claimed.Value then
						if coroutine.status(claimingf) ~= "running" then
							coroutine.resume(claimingf, highest)
						end
					end
				end
				task.wait()
				checkAndClaim()
			end

First, I’d declare claimingf separately as nil, then you can set the variable to the coroutine after.

local claimingf
claimingf = coroutine.create()

Also, I’ve noticed you call the checkandclaim function inside the function its calling. this will cause recursion and is probably why its throwing that error.
