Footsteps problem

[Ge15t]

Ok so, we define an integer variable called "s" (could be any letter you want) at the start of the loop. "s" is initialised to 1, and will increment by 1 (s++) whilst "s < 11". This means AddTimer(..) is called like so:

Code: (Select All)

AddTimer("step"+1, 0.8 * 1, "CreateFootstep");
AddTimer("step"+2, 0.8 * 2, "CreateFootstep");
AddTimer("step"+3, 0.8 * 3, "CreateFootstep");
...
AddTimer("step"+9, 0.8 * 9, "CreateFootstep");
AddTimer("step"+10, 0.8 * 10, "CreateFootstep");

So in human speak, for(int s=1;s<11;s++) AddTimer("step"+s, 0.8 * s, "CreateFootstep");

This means that s<11 means that the repeated sound (in my case scare_wood_creak_walk.snt) will play in each area, all the way up to Area 10 (script areas that you create and name Area_step_1 for example). So you create say 10 areas, Area_step_1, Area_step_2 etc, and the s++ means that the sound will 'move' from Area_step_1 to area 2, 10 times. AddTimer("step"+s, 0.8 * s, "CreateFootstep"); - "steps"+s I have no idea what it does, but it works, and 0.8 is the time between sounds playing from area to area (watch for overlap of sound) and "CreateFootstep" moves us to the callback function:

Code: (Select All)

void CreateFootstep(string &in asTimer)
{

    PlaySoundAtEntity("scary"+asTimer, "scare_wood_creak_walk.snt", "Area_step_1", 0, false);
    if(asTimer == "Area_step_6")
{
    
    PlaySoundAtEntity("", "scare_breath.ogg", "Player", 0, false);
    
}

"Area_step_1" is the starting point for the sound and what im TRYING to get working is the if(asTimer) statement. Hope this helps somewhat
