Sound not playing (Read if you want to have different times on looping sounds)

[Stepper321]

Hey i3670,

I like your script, it's a bit complicated (than what I'm used to seeing on here) but it seems like it does its job efficiently.

Did you name your areas "WindSound_1", "WindSound_2", etc.?

Are you sure your timer is sounding off properly?

What I would do is add the following lines of code inside your WindTimer function:
AddDebugMessage("Firing WindTimer function", false);

(after the variables are declared)
AddDebugMessage("Playing sound WindSound_"+iWind, false);

Tell me what the results are. Make sure debug messages are enabled for your profile!

iWind? fWind? What the fuck is going on?

He's creating variables to randomize the time and area at which the sounds are played. "fWind" is a float, while "iWind" is an integer; floats are floating point numbers (decimals) while integers are 1, 2, 3, etc.

A.K.A. Some pretty nice(and possibly)advanced scripting

Yup, I'll be using that technique in my custom story at some point (when I start to script random events like wind blowing or voice hearing and other stuff). It's a pretty nifty skill to have.

Heres a one way to make random voice hearings and stuff like that.Just place insanity area in the level editor and when the player collides with it(no scripting needed)it will trigger a random insanity effect.I usually hear someone talking and i sometimes get cockroaches in my face too

I think he want's more customization.
