AudioSource.PlayOneShot() is not looping

Question

Good Evening,

I'm having a problem with an AudioSource. On the inspector the AudioSource is set to loop. But if I use PlayOneShot it doesn't loop at all. To fix that I had to load the clip I want to loop in the inspector. But I don't want to have an object with an AudioSource for each AudioClip I need to loop. Is that a bug, or am I missing something?

Thanks in Advance.

PlayOneShot does exactly what the name suggests, it plays the audio clip once and stops. You may instead want to assign the audio clip in the inspector, set it to loop, and then use the Play() function instead. http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AudioSource.Play.html

For changing the audio clip, you simply assign a new clip to the AudioSource.clip variable of the AudioSource component (you only need one of that).

Check out the example here: http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AudioSource-clip.html
