How would I go about turning a regular script into a local script?
For example this script:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local getPlayerFromCharacter
getPlayerFromCharacter = function(model)
local plr = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(model)
if plr then return plr end
end
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = getPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
script.Parent.Sound1.Volume = 1
script.Parent.Sound1:Play()
end
end)
I want to turn it into a local script since I only want a single player to hear the sound (this script plays a sound on brick touch) instead of the entire server.
What makes a local script different than a regular script in terms of coding?
Sorry if this question seems simple, i'm pretty new at scripting and I tried googling it but I just got more confused.

A local script runs in the client side and only the client can use the it like Local Parts. You can access Local Player by game.Players.LocalPlayer but a server script you need to find other ways. mudathir2007 157 — 6y

Try this local script in a brick:
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local click = script.Parent.ClickDetector
local Sound1 = script.Parent.Sound1 -- Put your sound in the brick
local Mouse = player:GetMouse()
Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function(play)
if play then script.Parent.Sound1:Play()
end
end)
game.Workspace.Part.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect()
