Could some make me a sound cog?
2001-12-10, 7:59 AM #1
Could some make me (or tell me where to find) a cog that, when a switch is pressed, a sound is heard in specific sectors?

I need this fairly quickly, and I'll give you credit if it works... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Ewww, GBK... your cog is ugly!

Code: 
# Jedi Knight Cog Script

# Soundthingy.COG

# This Cog is Not supported by LucasArts Entertainment Co

symbols
surface	switch
sound		playsound
sector		playsector
int		act=0		local
flex		volume=4
message activated


end

# ========================================================================================

code
activated:
if(act == 0)
{
act = 1;
SetSurfaceCel(switch, 1);
SetSurfaceCel(switch, 0);
  PlaySoundPos(playsound, GetSectorCenter(playsector), volume, 10, 10, 0x1000);
Sleep(GetSoundLen(playsound));
act = 0;
}
else
if(act == 1)
{
Return;
}
Return;

This cog plays the sound only once, and it actually "animates" the switch [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Cave_Demon, your cog doesn't work. When I tried to press the switch it didn't do anything.

The switch didn't even go green!!

Any suggestions? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif] [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

Try this one on for size. It allows you to specify weither or not to allow multiple playings. (BTW, I changed it to ghost-based, getting sounds to work off sectorcenters is a pain in the @ss.)

 

Code:

Message Activated
Sound Sound
Surface Switch
Thing Ghost
Int Onetime=1
Int Channel=-1		Local
End
Code
Activated:
If(Channel != -1) Stop; 
Setwallcel(Switch, 1);
Channel = Playsoundpos(Sound, Getthingpos(Ghost), 1.0, -1, 100.0, 0);
Sleep(Getsoundlen(Sound));
Setwallcel(Switch, 0);
If(Onetime != 0) Stop;
Channel = -1;
Stop;
End


It works, I tested it. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Hmm... well, i made it at 23:00 (11:00 pm) and didn't test it [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

What do you mean with that volume won't go under 1.0? I know it doesn't!

Ooops, forgot to mention - the 'Onetime' variable determines the multiple playability. Set it to 0 to play evry time the switch is pressed, else itll play only once.

Volume in 'sound' cog verbs wont go PAST 1.0. In your cog, you had the volume preset to 4.
