Hi,

try something like the following. Your GameObject needs a AudioSource attached.

 public AudioClip impact;

 void OnMouseDown()
 {
     StartCoroutine(PlayAudio (3));
 }
 
 IEnumerator PlayAudio(int times)
 {
     for(int i=0; i<times; i++)
     {
         audio.PlayOneShot(impact, 0.7F);
         yield return new WaitForSeconds(impact.length);
     }
 }

Ahh, yes, this is the sort of thing I was thinking of because I have two seperate instances of how I need to do this, one method is with a button press, and the other is with an animations event. I think with the animation event it might be something like this if I'm understanding it right? public void mySound() { StartCoroutine(PlayAudio (3)); }

 IEnumerator PlayAudio(int times)
  {
      for(int i=0; i<times; i++)
      {
          audio.PlayOneShot(mySoundt, 0.7F);
          yield return new WaitForSeconds(mySound.length);
      }
  }

You can use a counter for that.

Psuedo-code:

int counter = 0; int maxCounterValue = 5;

 void Update() or even a Coroutine() {
     if(counter < maxCounterValue)
     {
         if(!audio.IsPlaying())
         {
             audio.Play();
             counter++;
         }
     }
 }
