Resolved InvokeRepeating a random audio clip every x seconds

I'm trying to write a code that plays a random sound every x seconds, however, when running, the code have a weird behavior. It starts "fine", but after a few seconds, instead of first reproducing one clip, wait x seconds, and then play another clip, it just randomly plays a lot of sounds at the same time, without any delay between them.

Here's my code so far:

Code (CSharp):

1. void Update(){
2.  
3.             InvokeRepeating("MakeSound", 1f, 4f);
4. }
5.  
6. //The method I'm calling on Update
7. void MakeSound() {
8.  
9.         _audioSource.clip = gruntSounds[Random.Range(0, gruntSounds.Length)];
10.         _audioSource.Play();
11.  
12. }

I've tried doing something like:

Code (CSharp):

1. void MakeSound() {
2.  
3.         _audioSource.clip = gruntSounds[Random.Range(0, gruntSounds.Length)];
4.         _audioSource.Play();
5.  
6.         var time = 3f;
7.         if (_audioSource.clip.length == _audioSource.clip.length) {
8.             Invoke("MakeSound", time);
9.         }
10. }

But it didn't work, it gave me the same result.

I've also searched and I found a lot about other random cases, but nothing similar to mine.

 

InvokeRepeating only needs to be called once. You are creating a new repeating invoke every frame so if you really want to use that method, call it once in the Start or Awake methods. Personally, I would use a coroutine or timer myself.

 

Ohhhh I see, sorry, I guess I didn't pay attention to that in the documentation. I'll try the three methods, many thanks!!
