My playlist playing songs in order makes a weird script error when all songs are done playing?

spawn(function()
while wait() do
    if pops==true then
    wait(0.2)
         local  sound = pop[currentSong]
    print(sound)
    sound:Play()
    wait(0.2)
    if currentSong~=#pop then -- Shuffles through the song now
        currentSong = currentSong+1
    else -- Resets the playlist.
        currentSong = 1
print"detected pop" 
    end

    repeat wait() until sound.Playing==false 

end end end)

When all songs are done playing, it creates a huge error and plays songs in order every 0.2 seconds. It doesn't seem like it resetted the playlist. Any suggestions?

check if the last song in the playlist has ended, and then restart it by setting current song back to 1. killerbrenden 1537 — 4y

Yeah, the last song ended. I restarted the currentSong back to 1, but still doesn't work. TinfoilbotGamer 35 — 4y

Why not use Math.Random() to choose a random song. or use tables?

Random song from playlist script

local songs = {"SongID","SongID","SongID","Just keep putting "" and a , for more songs"}
local songplaying = false

spawn(function()
while songplaying == false do
    wait()
    for i,v in pairs(songs) do
        local randomsong = songs[math.random(1,#songs)]
        wait()
        if not game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("GlobalSong") then
            local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
            sound.Name = "GlobalSong"
            sound.Parent = game.Workspace
        end

        songplaying = true

        game.Workspace.GlobalSong.SoundId = randomsong
        game.Workspace.GlobalSong:Play()
        game.Workspace.GlobalSong.Ended:Wait()
        songplaying = false
    end
end
end)

Play song in order

local songs = {"SongID","SongID","SongID","Just keep putting "" and a , for more songs"}
local songplaying = false

spawn(function()
    while songplaying == false do
        wait()
        for i = 1,#songs do
            wait()
            if not game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("GlobalSong") then
                local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
                sound.Name = "GlobalSong"
                sound.Parent = game.Workspace
            end

            songplaying = true

            game.Workspace.GlobalSong.SoundId = songs[i]
            game.Workspace.GlobalSong:Play()
            game.Workspace.GlobalSong.Ended:Wait()
            songplaying = false
        end
    end
end)

I've tried:

spawn(function()
while popplaying == false do
    wait()
if pops==true then
    for i,v in pairs(pop) do
        local randomsong = pop[math.random(1,#pop)]
        wait(0.1)
        popplaying = true
popsong.Value = randomsong
  script.Radio:FireServer("play", randomsong)
    randomsong.Ended:Wait()
        popplaying = false
    end 
end

end
end)

It works, but after all songs are over it no longer plays anymore...

It seems like you are using a localscript. Use a full serverscript for this. Lakodex 711 — 4y
