stopSound individually

[Estevam2d]

how to make the sound stop individually?

Two players start the sound at the same time only one sound will stop when we use the stop command and the sound that I keep is impossible to stop.

local url = "http://www.181.fm/winamp.pls?station=181-power&style=mp3&description=Power%20181%20(Top%2040)&file=181-power.pls" 
  
sound = {} 
function playTheSound(x, y, z, vehicle) 
    sound[vehicle] = playSound3D(url, x, y, z) 
    if (isElement(vehicle)) then attachElements(sound[vehicle], vehicle) end 
     
     
end 
addEvent("playTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("playTheSound", getRootElement(), playTheSound) 
  
function stopTheSound(vehicle) 
    stopSound(sound[vehicle]) 
end 
addEvent("stopTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("stopTheSound", getRootElement(), stopTheSound)

This code looks fine, could your post the server code please?

Why arent you checking if the sound already exists before creating a new sound?

If you do not check if the sound element already exists, then it will just ignore the old sound so sound[vehicle] will only give the newly created sound.

Maybe try this:

  
local url = "http://www.181.fm/winamp.pls?station=181-power&style=mp3&description=Power%20181%20(Top%2040)&file=181-power.pls" 
  
sound = {} 
function playTheSound(x, y, z, vehicle) 
    if not isElement(vehicle) then outputChatBox("Vehicle does not exist") return false end -- Checks if vehicle exist, and returns if vehicle does not exist 
    if isElement(sound[vehicle]) then outputChatBox("Sound is already playing") return false end -- Checks if sound exist, and returns if sound does exist 
  
    local theSound = playSound3D(url, x, y, z) 
    if theSound then 
        sound[vehicle] = theSound 
        attachElements(sound[vehicle], vehicle) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Sound failed to play") 
        return false 
    end 
    
    
end 
addEvent("playTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("playTheSound", getRootElement(), playTheSound) 
  
function stopTheSound(vehicle) 
    stopSound(sound[vehicle]) 
end 
addEvent("stopTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("stopTheSound", getRootElement(), stopTheSound)

I started using the script that AfuSensi sent me.

but when I use the command to stop the sound, only the marker is destroyed.

xXMADEXx and AfuSensi can you help me ?
