Phonograph Scripting Help

[HoyChampoy]

Music is terrifying!

*Ahem* It appears the devs used entirely new functions for the Phonograph in Justine, most notably:

PlayPhono(int iLevel, int iSet, int iPart, string &in asEntity)

Sadly, this function doesn't even appear in the Engine Scripts wiki Page, and I have no clue what it does. If my assumption is correct, the crank for the phonograph works like a spinning wheel crank (meaning it has 3 main int states, -1 as closed, 0 as between and 1 as open). Here's what I can come up with (assuming that I'm correct about it acting like a crank).

Before writing out this script, go into your level editor, then find and select the phonograph that you want to play music at; next, click the "Entity" tab on the right hand side of the screen (next to "General" tab). Third from the top, there should be a line that says "ConnectionStateChangeCallback" with a white box under it; in this white box, copy and paste: "PhonographScare". Good, now we can script!

void PhonographScare(string &in EntityName, int aIState)
{
if(alCount == 1)
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("", NAMEOFSOUND, "Phonograph", 5.0f, false);
SetPropStaticPhysics("Phonograph", true);
}
}

In layman's terms, if the player turns the crank all the way, sound will play at the phonograph and the phonograph crank will become stuck in place, and can no longer be interacted with.

Change "Phonograph" to the exact name of your phonograph in game;
Also, change NAMEOFSOUND to the name of the song*

*The song MUST be in .ogg format; you must use a sound editor like Audacity to properly convert it.

SetPropStaticPhysics will make the phonograph act like a static object, preventing the player from further interaction with it after the sound is playing.

Note: I have not tested this in game, but it should work properly. If a more advanced/educated Scripter would like to revise this, feel free.

Hope that helped!

thanks for the help, but I've ran into a problem. I tried doing the scripting but i always run into an error. Heres what my script looks like:


void PhonographScare(string &in EntityName, int aIState)


{
if(alCount == 1)
{

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "TipToeSong.ogg", "phonograph_1", 5.0f, false);
SetPropStaticPhysics("phonograph_1", true);

}
}

Here are the errors i'm getting:
main (115,1) : INFO : Compiling void PhonographScare(string&in, int)
main (119,5) : ERR : 'alCount' is not declared
main (119,5) : ERR : Expression must be of boolean type

I don't know whats happening
