attempt to concatenate string with userdata?
I made a music, playing script, but it does not concatenate properly? The error is attempt to concatenate string with userdata.
local AudioList = {
["ThereItIs"] = 279498364,
["FrostWalts"] = 2037145146,
["LocalForecast"] = 258852901,
["Decisions"] = 337055476,
["Run"] = 1470017017,
["Preposition"] = 257383979,
}
local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
for name, AudioId in pairs(AudioList) do
local AudioInstance = Instance.new("Sound")
AudioInstance.SoundId = "rbxassetid://" .. AudioId -- error is here!!
AudioInstance.Volume = 0.1
AudioInstance.Name = name
AudioInstance.Parent = game.Workspace
table.insert(AudioList, AudioInstance)
end

Try removing the space between .. and AudioId Nguyenlegiahung 1091 — 4y

Use "," or "+" instead of ".." mixgingengerina10 223 — 4y

I've dealt with a lot of these errors in my own games. I don't know the specific problem here (I'll try to look more into it), but basically what the problem was with mine was that the variable it's trying to use is a userdata value, not a string. It may look like a string, but it's actually not. The way I fixed this was by changing the value to the value's name, so it'll become a string value. blarp_blurp645 63 — 4y

The only thing i can think of right now is adding a tostring(AudioId) instead of the raw AudioId so theyre both a string. Try that

It's because you're inserting the audio instance into the table. The table you're looping through will also get updated. Try using a new table or something, the problem is this line though:
table.insert(AudioList, AudioInstance)
I'd do something like this:
local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
local AudioList = {
["ThereItIs"] = 279498364,
["FrostWalts"] = 2037145146,
["LocalForecast"] = 258852901,
["Decisions"] = 337055476,
["Run"] = 1470017017,
["Preposition"] = 257383979,
}
local audioFiles = {}
for name, AudioId in pairs(AudioList) do
local AudioInstance = Instance.new("Sound")
AudioInstance.SoundId = "rbxassetid://" .. AudioId -- error is here!!
AudioInstance.Volume = 0.1
AudioInstance.Name = name
AudioInstance.Parent = game.Workspace
audioFiles[#audioFiles + 1] = audioInstance
end

This should work, just like ChrisTheRobloxPlayYT said, use tostring()
Code:
local AudioList = {
["ThereItIs"] = 279498364,
["FrostWalts"] = 2037145146,
["LocalForecast"] = 258852901,
["Decisions"] = 337055476,
["Run"] = 1470017017,
["Preposition"] = 257383979,
}
local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
for name, Id in pairs(AudioList) do
local AudioInstance = Instance.new("Sound")
AudioInstance.SoundId = 'rbxassetid://' .. tostring(Id) -- error is here!!
AudioInstance.Volume = 0.1
AudioInstance.Name = name
AudioInstance.Parent = game.Workspace
table.insert(AudioList, AudioInstance)
end
But to prevent creation of the same song multiple times we add it to another table like Psudar said
local AudioList = {
["ThereItIs"] = 279498364,
["FrostWalts"] = 2037145146,
["LocalForecast"] = 258852901,
["Decisions"] = 337055476,
["Run"] = 1470017017,
["Preposition"] = 257383979,
}
local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
local addedAudio = {}
for name, Id in pairs(AudioList) do
local AudioInstance = Instance.new("Sound")
AudioInstance.SoundId = 'rbxassetid://' .. tostring(Id) -- error is here!!
AudioInstance.Volume = 0.1
AudioInstance.Name = name
AudioInstance.Parent = game.Workspace
table.insert(addedAudio, AudioInstance)
end
