attach a sound to an object that plays in a loop until the object is destroyed?

[PSYKO_nz 44]

Hi there, i was wondering how to go about attaching a sound to an object in a mission that loops until the object is destroyed.

if it helps the mission will end up on a dedicated server

im doing a radar hunting mission. ive placed down the radar units from the rhs pack and was happy, then i found a sound file of the russian woodpacker ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duga-3 ) and i thougt that the sound would be great coming from the radar arrays when there alive and then stopping when there destroyed. i've looked around a bit and i'm thoroughly confused about how to go about it.

much appreciate any help you can give

thanks in advance

Try this:

while { (damage radar)<0.5) } do {

playSound3D [ MISSION_ROOT + "sound\woodpacker.ogg", radar, false, getPos radar, 1, 1, 0];

};

And in the init.sqf (by Killzone Kid):

MISSION_ROOT = call {
private "_arr";
_arr = toArray __FILE__; 
_arr resize (count _arr - 8); 
toString _arr
};

thanks heaps, trying it now, one question, dio i put this in the objects init or is it an exterior script?

while { (damage radar)<0.5) } do {

playSound3D [ MISSION_ROOT + "sound\woodpacker.ogg", radar, false, getPos radar, 1, 1, 0];

};

when i put it in the init it throws up an error

It is an exterior script.
