I would like to find out how to fix that error: Unable to assign property SoundId. Content expected, got table

Its a ModuleScript inside ReplicatedStorage

self.playSound = function(name)
		local sounds = self.loadedSounds[name]
		if sounds then
			local sound = sounds[math.random(1,#sounds)]
			local pitch = sound.pitch and Math.Randomize2(sound.pitch[1], sound.pitch[2],0.01) or 1
			if sound.type == "fire" or sound.type == "fire-s" then
				audioHandler.playFireSound(self.weapon.RootPart.firePoint.WorldPosition, {
					id = "rbxassetid://"..sound.id,
					tp = "rbxassetid://"..sound.tp,
					volume = sound.volume or 1,
					pitch = pitch,
					dist = {500, 2000},
				}, false)
			else
				audioHandler.playAudio(self.weapon.RootPart, {
					id = "rbxassetid://"..sound.id,
					volume = sound.volume or 0.5,
					pitch = pitch,
					dist = {15, 300},
				}, false)
			end 
		end
	end

Seems that sound.id is not a string, its a table, try printing it or do checks:

warn(sound.id) -- print the content
-- or
warn("is this a string?:", typeof(sound.id)) -- check content type

For us to better debug this we need the code of the playFireSound and playAudio functions that is stored inside your audioHandler module.

Hi there,

I believe the error is apparent here considering the dist that you’re parsing onto your playFireSound function and attempting to set the sound.SoundId property to the dist array.

From your playSound function:

audioHandler.playFireSound(self.weapon.RootPart.firePoint.WorldPosition, {
					id = "rbxassetid://"..sound.id,
					tp = "rbxassetid://"..sound.tp,
					volume = sound.volume or 1,
					pitch = pitch,
					dist = {500, 2000},
				}, false)

From your audioHandler:

	if distance > 300 then
		sound.SoundId = audio.dist -- {500, 2000}
	elseif distance < 300 and distance > 5 then
		sound.SoundId = audio.tp
	end

I’m assuming you meant to set the distance values to sound.RollOffMinDistance or sound.RollOffMaxDistance instead?
