I Need help with a music cycle generator in C#

Questions & Answers
1

I am trying to have a script that controls six songs in a daylight
cycle- 3 for night & 3 for day controlled by arrays. I have researched for many
hours and have found nothing.

Here is the script

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MusicGenerator : MonoBehaviour {

void Start ()
{
    dayMusic = new AudioClip[3];

    playDayMusic();
}
public AudioClip[] dayMusic;
public bool isDay = true;
public AudioClip currentMusic;

// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
    if(isDay == true)
    {
        
    }
}

void playDayMusic()
{
    AudioSource audio = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
    audio.clip = dayMusic[Random.Range(0, dayMusic.Length)];
    audio.Play();

}

}

Help would be great.

I’m kind of new to unity so this may no be the best way, but i had a similar issue, i wanted to cycle multiple background songs randomly one after the other, it should be easy to modify it to factor in day / night.
To do this i had three scripts, one that generated the songs randomly, one that told the generation script when the song was over, and one that was used for publicly accessible variables, i also attached each song i wanted to use onto their own empty prefab in the assets menu. in this example i had three songs.

// this is the variable script, it is attached to an empty game object so that it's a prefab.
using UnityEngine;
public class Variable : MonoBehaviour
{
   public bool MusicOn;
}

//this script uses a random number to randomly generate the songs, it is attached to an empty   //game object in scene
using UnityEngine;
public class musicGenerator : MonoBehaviour
{
// for each song you need to create a GameObject.
    public GameObject music1;
    public GameObject music2;
    public GameObject music3;
    private int whichMusic;
// this part of the script is needed for the publicly accessible variables to work
    private Variable variables;
//this is what you attach the variable prefab to
    public GameObject Variables;
    void Awake()
    {
        variables = Variables.GetComponent<Variable>();
    }
    void Start (){
        variables.MusicOn = false;
    }
    void Update (){
        whichMusic = Random.Range(1,4);
            if(variables.MusicOn == false){
                if(whichMusic == 1){
                    Instantiate(music1);
// this prevents an infinite loop
                    variables.MusicOn = true;
                }
                if(whichMusic == 2){
                    Instantiate(music3);
                    variables.MusicOn = true;
                }
                if(whichMusic == 3){
                    Instantiate(music3);
                    variables.MusicOn = true;
                }
            }
        }    
    }
}

// this script uses the date tell when the song started, when it should stop and the current   //time, this script needs to be attached to each music prefab e.g. music 1.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class MusicControl1 : MonoBehaviour
{
 // musicDuration is manually put in and is the duration of the song in seconds
public float musicDuration;
//this is what you attach the variable prefab
private Variable variables;
public GameObject Variables;
System.DateTime musicTimeToReach;
void Awake()
{
    variables = Variables.GetComponent<Variable>();
}
void Start(){
     musicTimeToReach = System.DateTime.Now;
     musicTimeToReach = musicTimeToReach.AddSeconds(musicDuration);
        Debug.Log(musicTimeToReach);
}
void Update()
{
   System.DateTime myTime = System.DateTime.Now;
   Debug.Log(myTime);
    if(musicTimeToReach <= myTime){
        variables.MusicOn = false;
        Destroy(gameObject);
    }
    if(variables.gameOn == false){
        variables.MusicOn = false;
        Destroy(gameObject);}
    }
}
