Lobby Music Rotation Script not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I made a script to rotate lobby music thrice and then swap a song, a long with a gui text. All music is stored in workspace.Music and my GUI is properly in the startergui. This is my script, any help is appreciated.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui"):WaitForChild("Songslist"):WaitForChild("Songs")
local song1 = workspace.Music:FindFirstChild("Time")
local song2 = workspace.Music:FindFirstChild("Solaris")
local song3 = workspace.Music:FindFirstChild("Flowers")
local song4 = workspace.Music:FindFirstChild("Annoying")

local currentSong = song1 -- Set an initial song

while true do
    if currentSong == song1 and currentSong.IsPlaying then
        gui.Text = "Now Playing - Drifting Time Misplaced (8-BIT EDITION)"
        wait(497.232)
        currentSong:Stop()
        currentSong = song2
        currentSong:Play()
    elseif currentSong == song2 and currentSong.IsPlaying then
        gui.Text = "Solaris Daylight (Ray's Mod Edition)"
        wait(357.213)
        currentSong:Stop()
        currentSong = song3
        currentSong:Play()
    elseif currentSong == song3 and currentSong.IsPlaying then
        gui.Text = "Now playing - OMORI, A Home for Flowers"
        wait(278.91)
        currentSong:Stop()
        currentSong = song4
        currentSong:Play()
    elseif currentSong == song4 and currentSong.IsPlaying then
        gui.Text = "Now playing - OMORI, Whale Whale Whale"
        wait(221.865)
        currentSong:Stop()
        currentSong = song1
        currentSong:Play()
    end

    wait(1)
end

By the way, I multiplied the song length by three for the wait time.
All audios work but my script doesn’t and doesn’t return anything in console. Again, help is appreciated.

youre checking if the currentsong is playing in the if statements, play the currentsong before the while loop

#3 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui"):WaitForChild("Songslist"):WaitForChild("Songs")
local Music = workspace:WaitForChild("Music")
local Songs = Music:GetChildren()

Music.ChildAdded:Connect(function(sound : Sound)
    table.insert(Songs, sound)
end)

while true do
    for i,v : Sound in Songs do
        local data = v.IsLoaded and game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(v.SoundId) or nil

        if data then
            gui.Text = `Now Playing - {data.Name}`
            v:Play()
            v.Ended:Wait()
        end
    end
    task.wait()
end

I received this strange error. I ran through the script and it seems totally fine.

#5

what script did you run? I dont see how that’s possible because workspace exists off of runstart

#6

the script is in workspace so you probably made a serverscript instead of a localscript, serverscripts dont have a localplayer so thats why its erroring on line 3

so does it work or did I mess up

#9

No, it doesn’t work and it errors me in console with “Attempted to index nil in line 3” about the player gui or something… This is really confusing.

#10

I can’t fix that you need to grab the path yourself
