Problem

[Section2129]

I am making a trigger, that should do this:

When u enter a region from one way it plays a sound, but when u come from the other way the sound is not played(There should possible be another sound from the other way).

So the problem is that the sound is played from both ways, which it should not.

So if anyone can help, plz do since its very annoying.

 

[EmoBrother]

please post your trigger so we can fix it easily

EDIT :
Remember to use [trigger][/trigger]

You do know that Sound is played in 3D state ?
This means it needs a position from where it should be played.

Plus, yes, the trigger should be posted as well so we can see more clearer view of the situation.

 

[deathismyfriend]

by what ur saying ur going to have to determine which side of the region the unit is on. then u will have to use an ITE and do the actions u want to.

 

[Section2129]

Ok here it is.

PS. What is an ITE?

 

[deathismyfriend]

use this to post triggers. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/miscellaneous-tutorials-456/how-easily-post-triggers-163285/

ITE means if then else

Okay, here ya go!

Steps to take this further: Make it MPI/MUI, maybe make the regions into 3 arrays for PlaySound, NoSound, and Resetsound.

To Test: Run across the grass line in between the rocks.

Thx dude for the tutorial and the explanation. I would have done it like that, but i didn't know how, since i never used it before.

Wow finally someone with a solution that works. You have my deepest gratitude Zeatherann and for that i will thank you in my map when it's done.

 

[Section2129]

Ok so now i have used the system made by Zeatherann, but does anyone know how to make the sound play only for the owner of the entering unit.
It should look like this:
Play (my sound) for owner of entering unit.

• PlaySound
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters PlaySound <gen>
  • Conditions
    • PlaySound Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Sound - Play Gua_youmayenter <gen>

 

[deathismyfriend]

u can try this. not sure if it will desync. cant test it atm.

• Actions
  • Set tempPlayer = (Owner of (Triggering unit))
  • Custom script: if udg_tempPlayer == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • -------- place actions in here. --------
  • Custom script: endif

Also plz dont double post instead hit the edit button in the bottom right of ur last post.

Ok tried it, but it didnt work, but thx for the effort.

 

[deathismyfriend]

ok lol

 

[Zeatherann]

you need what Section2129 did, but in the comment area put your action to play the sound.

Helps for me to test sound with speakers on, ok here is the new Trigger for you.

• PlaySound
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters PlaySound <gen>
  • Conditions
    • PlaySound Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set EnteringUnit = (Entering unit)
    • Custom script: if GetOwningPlayer(udg_EnteringUnit)==GetLocalPlayer()then
    • Sound - Play MySound <gen>
    • Custom script: endif
    • Set EnteringUnit = No unit

 

[deathismyfriend]

u should use tempUnit and dont use entering unit instead use triggering unit.

Thats what i sent him to try he said it doesnt work but it should lol. can u show us the trigger plz mybe u messed something up.

    • Custom script: if GetOwningPlayer(udg_EnteringUnit)==GetLocalPlayer()then
    • Sound - Play MySound <gen>
    • Custom script: endif
    • Set EnteringUnit = No unit

And this only plays for the owner the entering unit?

 

[deathismyfriend]

its the exact same trigger i gave u lol.
It is inefficient tho. he sets a unit and doesnt use it. also dont use entering unit use triggering unit. and here try this.

• Actions
  • Set tempInt = (Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))
  • Custom script: if Player( udg_tempInt) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • -------- place actions in here. --------
  • -------- play sound here. --------
  • Custom script: endif

if it doesnt work post what u tried

 

[Zeatherann]

I use the unit I set, and if I was worried about speed loss from GetEnteringUnit() versus GetTriggerUnit() I'd've used StartSound() directly, not what ever the BJ is PlaySoundBJ().

 

[deathismyfriend]

its not just the speed. its bad practice. the BJ is something u cant get away with if ur a GUIer. and entering unit can bug with waits and some other circumstances, but triggering unit will not.

 

[Zeatherann]

But the use of entering unit was set before any waits.

 

[deathismyfriend]

its still bad practice since triggering unit is faster and more reliable. efficiency is what u should go for when coding. GUIers cant get better efficiency with actions unless they use custom script. so that is the most efficient they will get with that.
