Problem with Sound cog
2002-07-01, 2:14 PM #1
Sorry, i know im on a COG forum rampage. That just means you know my level will be good because of al the unique cogs [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Anyways, i dug up this old cog.

What its supposed to do is play a sound at a ghost position, and it gets softer the farther you go out. But what it does is, play the sound EVERYWHERE, at MAX volume. So wherever i go, i hear the sound.

Can somebody fix it please?

Try this. Change the flags to 0x41. Lower the distance, you have the distance set to 100 JKUs. I'm not sure, but if you go outside the sound's distance, it gets weaker.

I dont see why your getting any problems.. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif]

I tweaked the range, Maxdist should now equal JKUs. (The ranging in the 'Playsound' commands isnt in JKU...)

Since i fixed the sound prob, i might as well turn this into a old cog thread [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

All I was saying was the type of cog they are (or I think they are). The first looks like a Timed Setcor Thurst cog. The second is a Random Light Pulse Surface cog.

Apparently, I originatly wrote it as a surface switch, but someone (a n00b, apparently), modified it to make it a thing. They forgot to remove the surfacecel commands....
