Music Issue/Other Issues

[Squibs]

Hmm... not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

On my global events I have it set up like this:

1. Start of Frame

- Set internal flag 4 of Object1 on


2. Upon pressing "N"

- Toggle internal flag 4 of Object1
- Set volume of channel #4 to 0


3. Upon pressing "N"
+ Object1: internal flag 4 is off

-Set volume of channel #4 to 100
-Toggle internal flag 4


I have my sound effects all playing on channel #4. My sounds play at the start, turn off when I press "N", but they do not come back on when I press "N" again.

Don't forget to check for when the flag gets turned off and to stop any music/sounds playing.

Flag 1 of Object1 is off
+Only one action on event loop

I have a feeling this is what I'm missing, but I'm not quite sure where to put this in.

Thanks.

Why wrote 2 conditions "upon pressing "N"" ?

[Squibs]

I have two, because I thought it would work like that. But now that I've messed with it more I've noticed it does nothing different, rather I have it as one or two separate conditions.

I'm trying to say Upon pressing "N" while flag 4 is on, do this.

And upon press "N" while flag 4 is off, do this.

I'm still confused on the matter.

You've forgotten that once the flag is changed, the next event will see that. You simply need to do "Upon Pressing N: Toggle Flag"

[Squibs]

So, should I set it up like this then?



1. Start of Frame

- Set internal flag 4 of Object1 on


2. Upon pressing "N"

- Toggle internal flag 4 of Object1


3. Object1: internal flag 4 is off

-Set volume of channel #4 to 0


4. Object1: internal flag 4 is on

-Set volume of channel #4 to 100



Nevermind... that didn't work.

Is the sound playing on channel 4? I think you wanted Stop All Samples.

[Squibs]

Yes, the sound plays on channel 4, and it stops when I press, "N" but the sound does not come back when I press "N" again. I don't really want to stop all samples I would just like to mute them, then be able to unmute them.

Well, there's nothing wrong with your code.

[Squibs]

1. Start of Frame

- Set internal flag 4 of Object1 on


2. Upon pressing "N"

- Toggle internal flag 4 of Object1


3. Object1: internal flag 4 is off

-Set volume of channel #4 to 0


4. Object1: internal flag 4 is on

-Set volume of channel #4 to 100

After continuing on with my game for a while, I finally tried moving this out of my global events. Into each frames events. Turns out that was the problem. Thanks everyone for all the help.

Ahh yes, you would need that Object1 to be global and in every frame.
