Theres a noob that needs help

[MrMessyHair]

Hello, I want to know how to make a sound play only when something happens, and automatically stops when it's not ocurring. In this case, when the player gets invincibility.

Here is the code if somebody asks.

freeslot("sfx_inv")
sfxinfo[sfx_inv].caption = "Sparlkes"

addHook("PlayerThink", function(player)
if player.mo then
if (player.powers[pw_invulnerability])
if not S_SoundPlaying(player.mo, sfx_inv)
S_StartSound(player.mo, sfx_inv)
end
end
end
end)

addHook("PlayerThink", function(player)
if player.mo then
if (player.powers[pw_invulnerability]) = 0*TICRATE then
S_StopSound(player.mo, sfx_inv)
end
end
end)

[redhot69]

[MrMessyHair]

I just wrote it

 

[redhot69]

I just wrote it

no i mean the line of the code that has the error itself

 

[Dodobee]

if (player.powers[pw_invulnerability]) = 0*TICRATE then

there should be an extra equal sign as this is an if statement

 

[redhot69]

there should be an extra equal sign as this is an if statement

al

also there i wrote the line of the error

all sounds in the game has to be that sound?

 

[MrMessyHair]

no, just play the sound when the player gets invulnerability. like if the invulnerability stars are doing the sound. but for some reason when i don't get invulnerability all game sounds stops

Use S_StopSoundByID
S_StopSoundByID(player.mo, sfx_inv)
