	if triggers[lastTriggerd] then -- you can use (getLatentEventStatus) too!
		outputChatBox("Wait until the trigger ("..lastTriggerd..") ends!",255,0,0)
		return 
	end 
	triggerLatentServerEvent("LatentEventsCheck",20000,resourceRoot,localPlayer)
	lastTriggerd = #getLatentEventHandles() -- set the lastTriggerd with the id for last event triggerd
end)

-- SERVER SIDE:

addEvent("LatentEventsCheck",true)

	outputChatBox("Latent trigger done from: " .. getPlayerName(thePlayer), root,math.random(255),0,0) 
end)
