Sounds not playing

local function soundhit(part, exactpos)
	local att = Instance.new("Attachment")
	att.WorldPosition = exactpos
	att.Parent = part
	att.Name = "SoundHit"
	local material = part.Material.Name
	if hitfolder:FindFirstChild(material) then

		local soundc = hitfolder:FindFirstChild(material):FindFirstChild("Sound1"):Clone()
		soundc.Parent = att
		soundc.Name = "Hit"
		soundc:Play()
		
	end
end

Doesn’t seem to play , I already checked volumes and I checked immediately when the script runs. It’s a server script for a gun system, the sounds are not moderated. It only clones the sound.

What is hitfolder? Are you calling the function somewhere? can you add a Print(“Hello”) inside the soundhit function to see if it is working properly?

Try putting a print() statement to make sure your code is running.

what is part.Material.Name?

isnt its supposted to be tostring(part.Material)

#10

oh also try to change sound it might be the sound issue.

#11

After it prints “Played” can you see in-game the sound in the attachment? Can you call the soundhit function outside of it’s parent function? What Pumpky said. Are you allowed to use that sound?

#12

It’s my sound that I created, yes you can see the sound and what do you mean “can you call the soundhit function outside of it’s parent function”?

#13

part.Material.Name seems to work just fine

#14

I created the sound and it is not moderated.

#15

Can you get local function soundhit(part, exactpos)
function soundhit(part, exactpos)
by moving that function out of what function it is in?
Why is it local?

#16

try

local soundc = hitfolder:FindFirstChild(material):FindFirstChild("Sound1"):Clone()
		soundc.Parent = att
		soundc.Name = "Hit"
		soundc.PlayOnRemove = true
        game.Debris:AddItem(soundc,0.01)
#17

For all my functions I used local function in my script and it worked, even without local function it doesn’t work.

#18

It deletes but doesn’t play. Weird thing it doesn’t play when cloned, if I preview it , I can hear it.

#19

check console, audio discovery and look if theres a error.
if all dont work try to test your code in roblox client and not roblox studio.

#20

No audio errors at all, and it doesn’t play in game either.

#21

try to waitforchild, change the sound to some roblox audio or idk.
