After clicking once or twice in quick succession, the tween doesn’t want to play again.

Update: additional debugging has made my confusion even worse:

		if clicking then return end
		clicking = true
		show_tween:Cancel()
		reset_tween:Cancel()
		
		click_tween:Play()
		
		print(show_tween.PlaybackState, reset_tween.PlaybackState, click_tween.PlaybackState)

prints:


  23:35:10.486   ▶ Enum.PlaybackState.Cancelled Enum.PlaybackState.Begin Enum.PlaybackState.Playing (x11)  -  Client - BounceButton:63

Update 2:

It fixes itself when I hold down M1, then move OFF the button, then let go.

So first off, you don’t really need tweenservice for tweening gui’s Size or Position. There is this function :TweenSize() that works basically the same. One key difference is that you can make the tweens override in one of the parameters. What this means is that you don’t have to cancel any tweens and so, they do it automatically.

heres a really oversimplified version of ur code where I used tweensize instead

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = plr:GetMouse()

local button = script.Parent

local ed = Enum.EasingDirection.Out -- ed, Easing Direction
local es = Enum.EasingStyle.Sine -- es, Easing Style
local t = .2 -- Time

local show = UDim2.new(0.24, 0, 0.14, 0)
local reset = UDim2.new(0.2, 0, 0.1, 0)
local click = UDim2.new(0.18, 0, 0.08, 0)

local clicking = false

button.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
	if clicking then return end
	button:TweenSize(show,ed,es,t,true)
end)

button.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
	if clicking then return end
	button:TweenSize(reset,ed,es,t,true)
end)

button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
	clicking = true
	print("boop :D")
	button:TweenSize(click,ed,es,t,true)
end)

button.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
	clicking = false
	button:TweenSize(show,ed,es,t,true)
end)

I somehow forgot that existed. I’ll try it out
