how do you script between single shot and full auto?

so far i’m making a fps game with a friend just for fun and my friend made a revolver first… i put in the script “Getbuttondown” which makes it shoot with every click rather than holding it down…

But my friend made a thompson and whenever i switch guns the thompson stays single shot as its following the script…

how can i change the script so it can recognize that the thompson needs to be “Getbutton” and the revolver to stay as “Getbuttondown”?

i thought it could be something with tags but i don’t how to add it to the script and make it work…

this is just a piece of the code from my script… sorry if it seems messy but im an amateur :stuck_out_tongue:

thanks in advance :stuck_out_tongue:

 if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")) 
 
    {
 
        if (waitTilNextFire <= 0)
 
        {
 
            if (bullet)
                Instantiate(bullet,bulletspawn.transform.position, bulletspawn.transform.rotation);
 
            if (bulletSound)
                holdSound = Instantiate(bulletSound,bulletspawn.transform.position, bulletspawn.transform.rotation);
 
            if (muzzleFlash)
                holdmuzzleFlash = Instantiate(muzzleFlash,bulletspawn.transform.position, bulletspawn.transform.rotation);
 
            targetXRotation += (Random.value - 0.5) * Mathf.Lerp(shootAngleRandomizationAiming, shootAngleRandomizationNotAiming, ratioHipHold);
            targetYRotation += (Random.value - 0.5) * Mathf.Lerp(shootAngleRandomizationAiming, shootAngleRandomizationNotAiming, ratioHipHold);
            currentRecoilZPos -= recoilAmount;
 
            waitTilNextFire = 6;
 
        }
 
    }

Say you had a boolean value called isThompson which gets set to true when the thompson is around:

 if ((isThompson && Input.GetButton("Fire1")) || Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")) {
