I've looked heaps and can never find out how to do this, does anyone know how to make music play LOCALLY when you touch a part and to stop any other music playing? e.g. When you enter a doorway, it plays one song, and when you exit it stops the current song and plays a different one.

Just copy the song you want to play into the player then play it. That would make it local. I'll provide an example so I don't look lazy. The below will play a sound locally when a part is touched,
--Assuming the script is inside the part,
local Sound = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Sound")--Define your sound
Script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(part)
if not part then return end
if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(part.Parent.Name) then--checks if it's a player
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
local SoundCopy = Sound:Clone()
SoundCopy.Parent = plr--set sound's parent as player
SoundCopy:Play()--plays sound locally
end
end
end)
Now the main problem with this is it will repeatedly replay the song because you repeatedly retouch the brick. An easy way of fixing this is to add a Debounce. A debounce is simply a variable that stops code from running more than once in a short period of time. Here is a link to how and what a debounce is. Here's how you would use a debounce in code,
--Assuming the script is inside the part,
local Sound = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Sound")--Define your sound
local Debounce = false -- add variable "Debounce"
Script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(part)
if not part then return end
if Debounce then return end
Debounce = true
if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(part.Parent.Name) then--checks if it's a player
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
local SoundCopy = Sound:Clone()
SoundCopy.Parent = plr--set sound's parent as player
SoundCopy:Play()--plays sound locally
end
end
wait(5)--amount of time until brick can be used again.
Debounce = false
end)
That's would be how you add a debounce. No to stop music all you have to do is Define you song and do something like
Song:Stop() To stop the Song/Sound.
Hope that helped! Good luck!
I edited wfvj014's code to stop other sounds, its probably not very good, but I'mma post it anyway!
NOTE: This is not the answer, nor do I mean it to be, I'm just posting it to show others who may need the same thing how I did it.
--Assuming the script is inside the part,
local Sound = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Sound")--Define your sound
local Debounce = false -- add variable "Debounce"
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(part)
if not part then return end
if Debounce then return end
Debounce = true
if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(part.Parent.Name) then--checks if it's a player
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
local SoundCopy = Sound:Clone()
local found = plr:FindFirstChild("Music", true)
if not found then
local Newpart = Instance.new("Part", plr)
Newpart.Name = "Music"
Newpart.Transparency = 1
Newpart.CanCollide = false
end
plr.Music:ClearAllChildren()
SoundCopy.Parent = plr.Music--set sound's parent as player
SoundCopy:Play()--plays sound locally
end
end
wait(1)--amount of time until brick can be used again.
Debounce = false
end)

That's NEARLY what I wanted, there are 2 major problems, 1: It constantly plays it while you are touching the brick, and 2: It doesn't stop other music playing
Awesome, I'll update my answer

Thanks! Having trouble with stopping sound, but I'll figure it out :P
<3
UPDATE: Figured it out! I'm gonna post it below, just in case anyone wants it, but this will stay the answer, as it is the one that solved what I asked for!
Aight.
