Im having problems on getting my script working and Im not sure how to make it work,
I want so that when I press the Left or Right arrow the player’s “Sword” child’s collision gets disabled for a while and then comes back. Also that when pressed down for a really long time it would have attacked multiple times.
But what my script does is that but holding down the rhythm gets really messed up and its just really out of sync, whats wrong with my script?

var Sword: Animator;
private var isLeft : boolean = false;

function Update(){
	if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A)) {
		isLeft = true;
	}
	if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D)) {
		isLeft = false;
	}
 	if (isLeft == true) {
		Sword.SetBool("Left", true);
 	}
 	if (isLeft == false) {
		Sword.SetBool("Left", false);
	}

	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow)){
		Attack();
	}
	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow)){
		Attack();
	}
}

function Attack(){
	gameObject.collider2D.enabled = true;
	yield WaitForSeconds(1.0);{
		gameObject.collider2D.enabled = false;
	}
}

WaitForSeconds is not ideal for this purpose since you can’t really “reset” it. It will just execute what’s after it after x seconds, regardless of everything else. Use a timer instead, like this:

var swordTimer:float;

function Attack(){
   swordTimer=Time.timeSinceLevelLoad+1.0;
}

function Update(){
   if(swordTimer>Time.timeSinceLevelLoad)
      gameObject.collider2D.enabled = true;
   else
      gameObject.collider2D.enabled = false;

}
