-- THIS MUST BE INSIDE OF A LOCAL SCRIPT

local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local player = playersService.LocalPlayer

local zones, status = { -- ADD YOUR OWN PARTS THAT DEFINE ZONES IN HERE
    workspace.ShopZonePart,
    workspace.LobbyZonePart,
}, nil

function playerStatus()
    if status[3] == 1 then
        if status[2] == "ShopZonePart" then
            -- PLAY SHOP MUSIC
        end
    elseif status[3] == 2 then
        if status[2] == "ShopZonePart" then
            -- STOP SHOP MUSIC
        end
    end
end

runService.Heartbeat:Connect(function(deltaTime)
    local newStatus = nil

    for i = 1, #zones do
        local hits = workspace:GetPartsInPart(zones[i])
        for j = 1, #hits do
            task.wait()
            
            local target = playersService:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hits[j].Parent) or nil
            if target == nil or target ~= player then continue end
            
            if status ~= nil and zones[i].Name == status[2] then
                newStatus = {player, zones[i].Name, 0}
                break
            elseif status == nil then
                newStatus = {player, zones[i].Name, 1}
                break
            end
            
            newStatus = nil
        end        
    end
    
    if newStatus == nil then
        status = {player, status[2], 2}
        playerStatus()
    else
        status = newStatus
        playerStatus()
    end
end)

Try this lil script I wrote for ya, put it in a local script and add your own Zones in the zones table.

In this function you'll be able to see what zones the player entered and run a function accordingly

i appricate u writing a whole script for me! imma test it rn

i am extremly confused with this script and its not working so idk if i didnt something wrong

is there a certain place i need to put the local script

heres what i have in my local script

[pale quest]

Uff well firstly you need to add your own parts in this table

Those are the zones the script will check if the player is in

[cinder viper]

but those are what the parts are called

shop detector and house detector

[pale quest]

Alright next this function will return what zone the player has entered or left

You need to change this to whatever zone you want the shop music to play in

function playerStatus()
    if status[3] == 1 then
        if status[2] == "shopDetector" then
            -- PLAY SHOP MUSIC
        end
        if status[2] == "houseDetector" then
            -- PLAY HOUSE MUSIC
        end
    elseif status[3] == 2 then
        if status[2] == "shopDetector" then
            -- STOP SHOP MUSIC
        end
        if status[2] == "houseDetector" then
            -- STOP HOUSE MUSIC
        end
    end
end

Here's how you can scale it to other zones

[cinder viper]

heres what i got now and its not playing music

[pale quest]

Any errors?

[pale quest]

@cinder viper

local playerService = game:GetService("Players")
local player = playerService.LocalPlayer

local currentlyIn = nil

local zones = {
    {workspace.ShopZonePart, script.ShopTheme},
    {workspace.LobbyZonePart, script.LobbyTheme}
}

function isLocalPlayer(hit, zone)
    local target = playerService:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) or nil
    if target == nil or target ~= player then return false end
    if currentlyIn == zone then return false end
    return true
end

for i = 1, #zones do
    zones[i][1].Touched:Connect(function(hit)
        if not isLocalPlayer(hit, zones[i]) then return end
        zones[i][2]:Play()
        currentlyIn = zones[i]
    end)
    
    zones[i][1].TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
        if not isLocalPlayer(hit) then return end
        zones[i][2]:Stop()
        currentlyIn = nil
    end)
end

Alright here's a simple not overcomplicated version haha

I tested this one and it works

Just add the {PartZone, Music} in that table and everything will work as intended

[cinder viper]

There’s no errors

[cinder viper]

I’ll test it as soon as I get home after school

But I appreciate the help

[pale quest]

robo

[cinder viper]

here is the script i got rn and it doesnt work

[cinder viper]

should i put the songs inside of the script

[pale quest]

They're undersound service so it shouldn't matter but sure try putting em inside the script. I tested it and it works at intended man

[cinder viper]

im so confused bro is there like a special property that needs to be on or off in like the part or something

[pale quest]

CanTouch should be enabled

[cinder viper]

it is
