I am making a game with a slow motion feature/power that is time based. The player can use it for 2seconds, and fill rate is 5seconds. My issue is that the player might misuse this feature by quickly turning the feature ON-OFF, so it's ON-OFF-ON-OFF and it goes on.
My solution : The player cannot activate the feature if the timer percentage is less than 25% (this sucks right?)

How can I contain this? Do you people have any suggestions? Thanks!

Make it only usable once every five seconds instead of fiddling around with fill rates.

Have the timer need to recharge, and add a delay after each use before the timer starts recharging.

Thanks a lot for the quick suggestions. The delay after each use will work perfectly
