1. get the timers extension on the project (go to extensions and scroll until you find it)
2. make a variable called “AttackCoolDown” (or whatever name you want)
3. make the variable be true when the attack button is pressed and add a timer block and inside of it, make the variable false, also put all that inside a “if” block (it’s in the logic part) that has “if AttackCoolDown = false”.

there should be more ways to do it but idk about any of them.
