Applying Sound to Coin Collection

Our coins already have a script to handle their collection, so we can easily call our sound effect from there. We just need to set up the appropriate Component on our coin Prefabs first:

1. Select the coinBronze Prefab in the Project window.

2. Click the Add Component button and select Audio > Audio Source.

3. Drag the coinCollect_01 sound file from the _audio directory into the Audio Clip field of the Audio Source Component.

4. Repeat this for each of the other five coin Prefabs.

We need only one line of code to handle our audio call in the script, as shown in Listing 11.6.
