Ive spent 24 hours going around in circles with this, and it seems like nothing is compatible, or items are depreciated and obsolete. I know there must be a way.
I have an array, I can print random items from the array. I can also play an individual audio.clip. But as soon as I try to put it all together I get incompatibility errors.

Ive commented out lines that I have tried and failed on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

#pragma strict

//var MetalHits: AudioClip;
public var MetalHits:AudioClip[];
//public var MetalHits:AudioClip;

function Start() 
{
	//MetalHits = GetComponent.<AudioSource>();
}

function OnCollisionEnter(collision: Collision) 
{
	for (var contact: ContactPoint in collision.contacts) {
		Debug.DrawRay(contact.point, contact.normal, Color.white);
	}
	if (collision.relativeVelocity.magnitude > 2)
		//AudioSource.Play(MetalHits, transform.position);
//		 audio.PlayOneShot(MetalHits[1]);
		//audio.Play();
		
		 //audio.PlayOneShot(MetalHits[Random.Range(0,MetalHits.Length)]);
		//		MetalHits.Play();
		Debug.Log("mag hit "+collision.relativeVelocity.magnitude);
}

//var MetalHits: AudioClip;
…
//MetalHits = GetComponent.();
Looks like you’ve been trying to store the audio source component in an audio clip reference. That won’t work. Store the audio source component in an audio source reference. I haven’t tested the following, but perhaps it’s closer to where you want to be?

var MetalHits : AudioClip[];
private var audioSource : AudioSource;

audioSource = GetComponent.<AudioSource>();

function OnCollisionEnter(collision : Collision) 
{
    DrawCollisionNormals(collision);
    PlayCollisionSound(collision);
}

function DrawCollisionNormals(collision : Collision)
{
     for (var contact : ContactPoint in collision.contacts)
         Debug.DrawRay(contact.point, contact.normal, Color.white);
}

function PlayCollisionSound(collision : Collision)
{
    if (collision.relativeVelocity.magnitude > 2)
        PlayRandomClip(MetalHits);
}

function PlayRandomClip(clips : AudioClip[])
{
    var clip = clips[Random.Range(0, clips.Length)];
    audioSource.PlayOneShot(clip);
}

Thank you! Works perfectly!
I had read that you could temporarily instantiate the audioSource and then play from it, but nothing worked… at least the way I tried.
Thanks again, Ill play around with this so to get a better understanding.
