? Local Sound not playing

Hi Yish,

I think the reason it's not playing in the game is because you placed it in Backpack. If you want a Sound to be local, as in heard only by one player, then you need to place it into the CurrentCamera or the Player itself. However, keep in mind that the CurrentCamera is client-side only. So, you must use a LocalScript to access it. Therefore, you need to fire a RemoteEvent from the Server to set off the LocalScript. Then, this LocalScript will parent the Sound and play it.

##Here's how the Server and LocalScript look like:

####Local Script

local players = game:GetService("Players");
local player = players.LocalPlayer;
local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage");
local parent_sound_ev = rs:WaitForChild("Parent Sound");
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera;

function parent_it()
	local sound = script:WaitForChild("Kaching"):Clone();
	local prev_sound = cam:FindFirstChildOfClass("Sound");
	
	if prev_sound then
		prev_sound:Destroy();
	end
	
	sound.Parent = cam;
	sound:Play();
end

parent_sound_ev.OnClientEvent:Connect(parent_it);

####Server Script

db = false
local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage");
local play_sound = rs:WaitForChild("Parent Sound")

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        if db == false then
            db = true
            script.Parent.Transparency = 1
            player.leaderstats.Coins.Value = player.leaderstats.Coins.Value + 1
            play_sound:FireClient(player);
		
            wait(math.random())
            script.Parent.Transparency = 0
            db = false
        else
        end
    end
end)

###I've made a place that does this, and I've allowed copying so you can take a copy and examine the whole system if you need a better handle on it. It can be found here.

##Well, I hope I helped and have a wonderful day/night.

Thanks,

Best regards,
