callback

debounce
How many seconds after each run that new firings are skipped, which can be 0 or more.
per_player
Whether each player gets their own debounce, while a firing without a Player uses the shared one.
once
Set it to true to disconnect after the first run, so the function only runs once.
filter
A function that gets the event's values and returns whether this firing counts, and a firing that doesn't count, or whose filter errors, never uses up once or debounce.

method#

Pauses the script until the event fires next, then gives you its values.

Event:wait() -> T...

example

local newcomer = players.joined:wait()

Use it forwaiting for the first player to join before the game starts its first round.
