Sound doesn't stop when pressing a GUI button?

Asked 351 views2 answers

I know this might sound silly, since it's such a simple script. But I was trying to create "Toggle Radio" like After the Flash, and I thought this code would work, but it doesn't stop the sound or show any errors in the Developer Console. Here's my code:

local Sound1 = script.Parent.TimeAndTimeAgain -- References the sound

script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function() -- Detects when clicked, if so commences these events
	if Sound1.Playing == false then -- If the sound isn't playing, it plays the sound
		Sound1:Play()
	else
		Sound1:Stop() -- If the sound is playing, it stops the sound
	end
end)

Thanks!

Doesn't work

either your asset ID is invalid or your sound isn't called 'TimeAndTimeAgain' because there's no problems with the code, an invalid AssetID is most likely the problem.

Nope, the asset ID isn't invalid and it isn't showing errors. The sound is named TimeAndTimeAgain. It's in the script

script's parent.

Try this

local Sound1 = Instance.new("Sound")
Sound1.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1837324424" 
Sound1.Parent = script.Parent

script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function() -- Detects when clicked, if so commences these events
	if Sound1.IsPlaying == false then -- If the sound isn't playing, it plays the sound
		Sound1:Play()
	else
		Sound1:Stop() -- If the sound is playing, it stops the sound
	end
end)

I don't know why it doesn't work on mine, it might be playing multiple times. But I don't get how that's possible because I'm only clicking it once.

Is it supposed to be a local script? Because on mine it is.

Yeah its supposed to be in a local script. Is this 100% the code or is this a snippit of one? This code isn't set in a loop?

Nope.

This is all of the code.

Apparently, the Play and Stop() function just looped??? I'm so confused about how it was looping. But anyway, I got it fixed. Thanks for your help!
