How do I make a music mute button?

Asked Apr 18, 20184,642 views2 answers

I have some music with a script like this:

local sound1 = 949583914
local sound2 = 918984470
local sound3 = 390846973
local music=script.Parent


while true do
	wait()
	music.SoundId="rbxassetid://"..sound1
	music:Play()
	music.Ended:wait()
	wait()
	music.SoundId="rbxassetid://"..sound2
	music:Play()
	music.Ended:wait()
	wait()
	music.SoundId="rbxassetid://"..sound3
	music:Play()
	music.Ended:wait()
	wait()
end

And I tried doing this:

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Music.Volume = 0
end)

I don't know what I did wrong. You might not even be able to change the volume like that. I need it to be fully local too.

Btw the music one is a normal script, but the mute on is a local one.

Is the mute script in a PART or TEXTBUTTON?

✓ Accepted answer

local Button = script.Parent -- Or where the button is
local Music = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('Music') -- Or where the music is

Button.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	Music.Playing = not Music.Playing  -- If playing is true then it makes playing false and reversed
end)

Should explain itself, if you don't understand it, just ask :)

Doesn't seem to work.

I tried it and it worked, make sure the script is inside the button and the sound is next to the button called 'Music', or change the variables (line1 + line2) to change where the sound and button are

I did change the path tho. I'm gonna go ahead and check if I did a mistake. I probably didn't tho.

I did do a mistake. The music was in Workspace.

Okay, does it work now? :)

local Button = script.Parent
Music = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Music")

Button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
	if Music.Playing then -- If the music is playing...
		Music.Playing = not Music.Playing -- Or Music:Pause()
	end
	if not Music.Playing then -- If the music is not playing...
		Music.Playing = true -- Keep playing it
	end
end)

Try that.

Your script isn't wrong but my script is right, please go learn scripting before trying to correct me as I tried my script, actually IsPlaying is wrong as it is READ ONLY. Also your script doesn't start again when pressed

Playing is deprecated and it has been since Roblox has upgraded to Lua 5.1.

My script works, yours kinda does but it works with global variables wich suck and isn't very good as you cannot unmute

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

And playing isn't deprecated, it's a propertie dude

All yours does is that it stops the music.

You use a clickdetector what means your script won't work because FE 2) You're wrong, I use not wich means that it sets it to true if it's false and reversed.

In case you don't know, 'not' sets a boolean to the opposite of it's current value

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

Then why does that other script of yours not work?

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

It does work, he probably didn't change the 2 variables wich say where the sound and the button are, I tested it and it worked

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

Oh now I see what he did. Hold on a sec.

Your ifs aren't neccesary, Music.Playing = not Music.Playing is enough

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

The second "if" can be used to resume the music if he asks so.

AnonymousApr 18, 2018#

The music gets resumed the moment playing is on again, and playing gets toggled with the Music.Playing = not Music.Playing
