If I wanted to have the player freeze while a sound is played in the default sound zone script what line would I have to add and where?

This could help for starting

+ Code Snippet

-- LUA Script - precede every function and global member with lowercase name of script + '_main'
-- Player Enters Sound Zone
local filename = "audiobank\\myfolder\\mysound.wav"
local state = "inzone"

function soundinzone2_init(e)
	LoadGlobalSound ( filename, 1 )
end

function soundinzone2_main(e)
	Prompt(GetGlobalSoundPlaying( 1 ) .." - " ..state)
 if g_Entity[e]['plrinzone']==1 and state == "inzone" then
  state = "outzone"
  PlayGlobalSound ( 1 )
 end --plrinzone
 
if GetGlobalSoundPlaying ( 1 ) == 1 and state == "outzone"  then 
	FreezePlayer()
elseif GetGlobalSoundPlaying ( 1 ) == 0 and state == "outzone"  then 
	UnFreezePlayer()
end
end --main

You can get comments about sound functions, at the bottom of "global.lua" file.

Excellent 3com, thanks for that.

I have another question if that's ok.

For another script i'm doing I want to be able to once within 100 distance of an object, press a key, which plays a sound, waits for a few second, and then plays a different sound.

I can easily make a script to play a sound when you press a key, it's playing a second sound after a few seconds I can't work out how to do, timers just don't make sense to me.

Any ideas?

Try...

+ Code Snippet

local delay = 10
local otimer = nil
local state

function sound_intime_init(e)
	state = 0
end

function sound_intime_main(e)

if GetPlayerDistance(e) <= 100 and state == 0 then
	
if otimer == nil then otimer = os.clock() end
--Prompt(os.clock() .." - otimer: " ..otimer + delay)

if os.clock() < otimer + delay then 
	PlaySound(e,0) 
else
	PlaySound(e,1)
	state = 1
end
end --GetPlayerDistance(e)
end --main

Thanks again 3com, much grateful

Sorry to keep bothering you, but I'm trying to build my own hud and hit a snag with sprites.

For some reason I can't get the sprite depth to work, I want the text on top of the sprite, but it's behind, any idea what i'm doing wrong?

+ Code Snippet

    --text location
    local heart_tex_posx = 85.5
    local heart_tex_posy = 4
    local heart_text_size = 20
    --sprite location
    local heart_spr_posx = 81
    local heart_spr_posy = 1
    --sprite size
    local heart_spr_sizex = 9
    local heart_spr_sizey = 6	 
	 
function hudtest_init(e)
	HideHuds()
    heart_sprite = LoadImage("scriptbank\\images\\island\\health.png")
    heart_icon = CreateSprite(heart_sprite)
    SetSpriteSize (heart_icon,heart_spr_sizex,heart_spr_sizey)   
    SetSpriteDepth (heart_sprite, 100)
end
 
function hudtest_main(e)

	if g_max_PlayerHealth == nil then 
	g_max_PlayerHealth = g_gameloop_StartHealth
	end
	
       TextCenterOnX(heart_tex_posx,heart_tex_posy,1,""..g_PlayerHealth.." / "..g_max_PlayerHealth)
       SetSpritePosition(heart_icon,heart_spr_posx,heart_spr_posy)
	
end

see? I am at least trying to learn.... my head hurts now

use
PasteSpritePosition(heart_icon,heart_spr_posx,heart_spr_posy)
TextCenterOnX(heart_tex_posx,heart_tex_posy,1,""..g_PlayerHealth.." / "..g_max_PlayerHealth)

depth only works for sprites on top of other sprites

Thanks smallg, that's fixed the issue, however it's produced another issue....

+ Code Snippet

    --text location
    local heart_tex_posx = 85.5
    local heart_tex_posy = 4
    local heart_text_size = 20
    --sprite location
    local heart_spr_posx = 81
    local heart_spr_posy = 1
    --sprite size
    local heart_spr_sizex = 9
    local heart_spr_sizey = 6	 
	 
function hudtest_init(e)
	HideHuds()
    heart_sprite = LoadImage("scriptbank\\images\\island\\health.png")
    heart_icon = CreateSprite(heart_sprite)
    SetSpriteSize (heart_icon,heart_spr_sizex,heart_spr_sizey)   
    SetSpriteDepth (heart_sprite, 100)
end
 
function hudtest_main(e)

	if g_max_PlayerHealth == nil then 
	g_max_PlayerHealth = g_gameloop_StartHealth
	end	
		PasteSpritePosition(heart_icon,heart_spr_posx,heart_spr_posy)
		TextCenterOnX(heart_tex_posx,heart_tex_posy,1,""..g_PlayerHealth.." / "..g_max_PlayerHealth)
	
end

Note how there are two sprites on screen? There's only one entry in the script to paste them, but for some reason a second sprite is being pasted in the left hand corner, any ideas?

Its the original sprite, paste sprite is like a clone of the sprite and the original sprite position is always 0,0 so you just need to move the sprite off screen when you first create it.

OK, how would I do that?

Like this?

function hudtest_init(e)
    HideHuds()
    heart_sprite = LoadImage("scriptbank\\images\\island\\health.png")
    heart_icon = CreateSprite(heart_sprite)
    SetSpriteSize (heart_icon,heart_spr_sizex,heart_spr_sizey)   
    SetSpriteDepth (heart_sprite, 100)
end
  
function hudtest_main(e)
 
    if g_max_PlayerHealth == nil then
    g_max_PlayerHealth = g_gameloop_StartHealth

Quote: "SetSpritePosition(heart_icon,300,300)"

Move to _init(e) part of the code.

If you're interested, here's a mock up of how I plan to have my final HUD

The square items will have their quantities displayed to the right of them (for the flashlight it will be the power %), the ammo, health and lives will have their text cantered on them.

@3Com : I've finally gotten around to trying the two scripts you posted.

Neither one works for me.

The first one (freeze unfreeze while playing sound) doesn't seem to unfreeze at all.

The second one (play a sound pause ten second play a second sound), the timer seems to apply to the first sound instead of the second sound, it waits ten seconds then plays both sounds at the same time instead of playing the first sound, pausing ten second, then playing the second sound.

yes because sounds (like animation) need to toggle or they will get stuck trying to play

+ Code Snippet

local delay = 10
local otimer = nil
local state
 local sound_playing0 = 0
function sound_intime_init(e)
    state = 0
end
 
function sound_intime_main(e)
 
if GetPlayerDistance(e) <= 100 and state == 0 then
     
if otimer == nil then
 otimer = os.clock() 
state = 1 
end

end 
--Prompt(os.clock() .." - otimer: " ..otimer + delay)
 
if state == 1 then 
if os.clock() < otimer + delay then
   if sound_playing0 == 0 then 
    PlaySound(e,0) 
    sound_playing0 = 1 
   end
else
    PlaySound(e,1)
    state = 2
end
end --triggered the sounds
end --main
