I have a GUI in which when you click a button, a sound gets placed into the workspace. However, if you keep clicking that button, the sound will get spammed. Can someone point me in the right direction? I think the script would be something like
if game.Workspace.sound ---- Something to detect that theres more than one sound
then game.Workspace.sound:remove()
Sorry if that's not right, but that's what I came up with off the top of my head
This is quite a simple process to accomplish. You're going somewhat the correct direction. What you want to do when you click the GUI that is creating the Sound is have it check if a sound exists BEFORE the sound is even created. This is what a script would look like if you were just checking.
if game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Sound") ~= nil then
print("Sound Already Exists!!")
else
s = Instance.new("Sound", game.Workspace)
end
Now, I used FindFirstChild() because an error may occur if you go to something that is Nil !
Here is what it may look like in a GUI, but beware that my hierarchy will differ from yours!
game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
if game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Sound") ~= nil then
print("Already Exists")
else
s = Instance.new("Sound", game.Workspace)
-- Name the sound, Add the asset link, etc bellow
end
end)
If this helps, UpVote and Accept! Ask any questions if needed
local sound = game.Workspace:findFirstChild("Sound")
if sound then
sound:remove()
end)
--Clone your sound into the workspace on this line.
Hope that helps!
The problem with this is people type the sound ID they want, so I cant clone it without knowing. It's a music GUI

The code I did is just not making another sound, instead it will see if it's there and if so, print above. The sound doesn't get removed in this script
Remember, anything done in StarterGui will NOT replicate to the player! StarterGui is simply a holder to store GUIs that will later be cloned into your PlayerGui. Any events connected or visual changes must therefore be done in PlayerGui.
