help with function disconnection

[smoky fern]

when the autoclicker is deactivated and the player is holding a tool it fires this

[cobalt patio]

pretty sure u cant use :Disconnect on functions unless thats just something ive been unaware of

Just add a bool into while true do in punch and set the bool to false when u want the function to stop running

[smoky fern]

disconnect is a thing ye

[cobalt patio]

function punch()
while INSERT_BOOL do
task.wait()
end
end

--other code whatever
INSERT_BOOL = false -- stop punch

ok ill try

okay just googled it, disconnect does something differently than you expect

You use it to disconnect function from things like :Connect

example:

local connection
connection = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part)
    if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        part.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0
        connection:Disconnect()
    end
end)

So hence why it was giving you the error

since you were using it for the wrong things

no worries!

[rapid pumice]

you have to do sum like

heres an example of a part function

local touchEvent = yourpart.Touched:Connect(function(arguments)
    
end)

touchEvent:Disconnect()
