[General] Play Sound for only 1 player

[Joker9944]

Hey Guys

My problem is i want to play a sound only for 1 player. But with normal tiggers it didnt work.

Thank you for Reading

What is it like for, A unit enters this or player writes something.,,?
It would be something like this;

• Actions
  • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == <> then
  • Sound - Play (Your sound)
  • Custom script: endif

Where <> depends on what the event is.

Thank you for answer

A unit attack a other unit. The sound have to played for the owner of the attacking unit.

I solved it by replacing "QuestNew" sound and making a trigger with "Quest message". Don't know how to use vJass.

For the owner of the attacking unit:

Replace <> with GetOwningPlayer(GetAttacker())

I hope this helped

Sorry i didnt work .

• Stop Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal Unit 1
    • (unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Unequal Unit 2
    • (unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Unequal Unit 3
    • (unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Unequal Unit 4
    • (unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Unequal Unit 5
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Stop
    • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() != GetOwningPlayer(GetAttacker() then
    • Sound - play (my sound)
    • Custom script: endif

This is my Tigger.

• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() != GetOwningPlayer(GetAttacker() then

should be:

• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() != GetOwningPlayer(GetAttacker()) then

You forgot a parenthesis after the GetAttacker().

Thank you all!

It works

Wait a minute .. do you want the sound to be played to the attacked unit or the attacker?

In the current case, the sound is going to be played for every player except the attacker

If you want it to play for the attacker, use == instead of !=

 

[Joker9944]

Yes this is i a problem.

How?

I gues i am a beginner in custom scripts and Jass

 

[Elvendan]

Use this:

• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetAttacker()) then
• Sound - Play (sound)
• Custom script: endif

GetLocalPlayer() returns an asyncrnious value.
WC3 is syncrnious, so what is calculated for 1 human playing the map should also be calculated for other humans playing the map.
An asyncrnious value is when the value is different between atleast 2 players in an instance of the game.

GetLocalPlayer()
Returns an asyncrnious player object representing who the owner of the game client is playing.
Only active human players have a game client so can be returned by it.
Player object returned is constant and unique for each game client.
Impossible to get null returned or values in the range of Player(12 to 15) (neutral players).

Using this unique behaviour combined with flow control structures you can run code locally for only specific players. This is great for HCI or graphics which do not affect gameplay but improve the interaction of players with the map. This should never be used to run anything that alters gameplay as it will cause an immediate game split.

Examples
good - Using it to play a sound only for a single player. The sound will only play for certain players.
bad - Using it as the desired owner of a unit. Multiplayer games will instantly disolve (everyone gets dropped from each other).
