Help and Feedback Scripting Support

So i wanna send a sound object that was randomly picked from a client to a sever back to a client, but its not working when trying to play the sound sent to the last, any help?

local sound = nil

local maxLoudness = 10

local function prop()

sound:Play()

end

while wait(1) do

if sound ~= nil then

prop()

end

end

script.Parent.Parent.NumberSound2.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(noise)

sound = noise

end)

The sound is a Sound object or a Sound id?

Its an object, randomly picked in the first local script.

Try using PreloadAsync to make sure the sound you receive is loaded.

It is, its just not playing when its supposed to.

hmm, I recommend playing the sound when the Event is fired, instead of making a loop checking if there is a sound.

script.Parent.Parent.NumberSound2.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(noise)
   if noise:IsA("Sound") and noise.SoundId ~= nil then
       noise.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer
       noise:Play()
   end
end)

Well, im gonna send the whole script to try understand.

local sound = nil

local maxLoudness = 10

local function prop()

sound:Play()

end

while wait(1) do

if sound ~= nil then

prop()

end

end

script.Parent.Parent.NumberSound2.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(noise)

sound = noise

end)

while true do

print("repeats sound thing")

local amplitude = math.clamp(sound.PlaybackLoudness/600, 0.2, 0.4)

script.Parent.Size = UDim2.new(amplitude, 0, amplitude, 0)

wait(0.005)

end

Hmmmmmmmm… I would recommend rewriting the code from scratch and avoiding while loops, they aren’t a really good practice. Instead of sending a sound, send the SoundId and then create a new Sound Instance and set its id to the received id.

Wym, im a little confused, It used to play fine up until I made it have to find the sound.
