trigger for music

[hogleg]

I've got this at the start of my SP map, ( $player stufftext "tmstart sound/music/mus_04f_suspense.mp3" ).

Question: How do I trigger at another spot in the map?

I know i would use a trigger multiple where i wanted to activate it but do i just need the trigger to call for that $player stufftext.....somehow??

just call a thread from the trigger multiple :

Code: Select all

thead_called:
local.p = parm.other
local.p stufftext "w/e"
end

[hogleg]

thx...

But what are the key / value to call that thread? You need to spell it out a little more clearly, im a noob at scripting.

okay, like this:

Code: Select all

thread music 1


music1:
$player stufftext "tmstart sound/music/mus_10a_action.mp3"
end

that for the script but wat about the key values for the trigger multiple?
********
this is what i have so far, is this right?
trigger_multiple
#set / 4 (ive allready used 1~3)

targetname / music 1

setthread your_thread

[hogleg]

Soooo...just target music 1

Code: Select all

thread music 1

music1:
$player stufftext "tmstart sound/music/mus_02f_suspence.mp3"

ahhh
setthread
music 1

***edit***
nope, didnt work

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

erm, remove the 'thread music 1' line...
(btw, that line is faulty, it sud be 'thread music1')

if you have it calling the thread in the script, itll start the music when you spawn

just put this as a key/value in radiant:
setthread
music1

then have this in your script:

Code: Select all

music1:
$player stufftext "tmstart sound/music/mus_02f_suspence.mp3"
end

[Rookie One.pl]

Code: Select all

music1:
$player stufftext "tmstart sound/music/mus_02f_suspence.mp3"
end

No wonder it didn't work. Can't you guys spell 'suspense'?

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

not as much as some of us can spell attach

well what i pointed out was wrong as well, so fix that too, hog

The best way to learn how SP scripts change the music is to study the singleplayer scripts. Search them for "stufftext".

There should already be AI threads that are being triggered at points in your map. So just add the stufftext lines to those threads.

Btw, if you use "tmstart" it may only play the sound one time. You can also use "tmstartloop".
