I have a asphalt single roof, 24" trusses 1/2 or 7/16" plywood.
The roof is spongy to walk on, you can see waves in the roof from the ground.
I need to replace plywood
I'am undecided on asphalt or metal
With metal. what gaugeroofing and what thickens should new plywood be
Is standing seam worth the extra price?

Undoubtedly metal is more durable and energy-efficient than asphalt shingles. You should go for metal.

The plywood should not have failed regardless in this case but 1/2" CDX, 4-ply, wood is fine as long as it is clipped in and installed properly.
Metal is certainly worth the premium over asphalt in this case if you value a permanent roof that adds value to your home.
