What to do when AudioSource is destroyed in Unity?
Once it has been destroyed, it no longer exists and therefore cannot play any sound. To avoid this, you can create a separate GameObject to contain an AudioSource that will play the sound, then destroy that once it’s finished. Unity actually has a helper function, AudioSource.PlayOneShot, to do exactly that:
Is there a way to play audio in Unity?
GetComponent< AudioSource > (). Play (); Click to expand… You are destroying the object soon after calling Play (). So there isn’t enough time for the sound to be played. xAmrxxxx likes this. Hmmm, that doesn’t explain the warning I’m getting though. You probably disabled the audio source. Enable it in the inspector or in code.
Do you have to destroy sound to play it?
– Note – you’ll have to create a separate GameObject for the audio source if you want to destroy your GameObject before the sound ends. thanks! Well if you want to destroy your object, then do so after the sound has played.
Why does unity not play sound upon collision?
If you’re sure that your collision code is being called, because you have proof, either via debug logging or because it has triggered any other thing in your game (particle instantiation perhaps?), then it’s really likely that this is the reason. The Unity editor might also log that “Can not play a disabled audio source”.
How do I use an audio source in a script?
Once you have your Audio Source set up correctly, there are two ways to trigger sounds from a script: The first method to achieve this would be to not have an AudioClip Variable at all, but instead attach an Audio Source component to your GameObject (or to the pickup object), and drag the AudioClip into that Audio Source Component.
What happens to audio when object is destroyed?
Well, the game object you’re trying to play the sound on is being destroyed, so the audio source is going to be destroyed along with it. You’ll have to create an empty game object for the audio source to be attached to, placed at the destroyed object’s position, and destroy that one after the sound effect finishes.
What’s the difference between audioclip and audio source?
The AudioClip is the actual sound file that will be played back. The Audio Source is a controller for starting and stopping playback of that clip, and modifying other audio properties. Audio Sources need to be attached as a component to a GameObject. GameObjects do not do anything on their own.
