Is there a way to play music when i touch an object? Like, can i pick up an item and then once i pick it up music plays? If so, then can someone plz help me! Thx!

I don't know the script for it but I do know somewhere in the game where you touch a pig it squeals. try finding that map and look at HPS file for it.

Check the wiki, you can find all codes there.

void OnStart()
{
SetEntityCallbackFunc("item", "OnPickup");
}

void OnPickup(string &in asEntity, string &in type)
{
PlayMusic("music.ogg", false, 1, 1, 1, false);
}

You have to have the item in your map named "item" (no quotations)

Do you know the basics of coding?

-_- yes, instead of item i put in the name of the item. Instead of changing the name of the item to "item" i just put in the name of the item already.

What item are you using? An Item is something you can pick up, an entity is something you can grab and interact with.

i am using a violin

Then you are using the wrong code. The violin isn't an item, is an entity. To make that work, simply put this anywhere in your script, but not in void OnStart(). Put this:

void Touch(string &in asEntity)
{
PlayMusic("music.ogg", false, 1, 1, 1, false);
}



Now, select the violin and go to the entity panel. Go down, where it says "PlayerInteractCallback" and put "Touch". Now it should work.
