Positional sounds

[tracy_t 0]

I would like to play a sound at position <pos>, where pos is a dynamic position (*not* a static position, so I can't use a trigger unfortunately)

However, the PlaySound statement, according to the manual, only takes the sound to play and not a position.

Any idea on how to play sounds from any given position? Can I use setpos on a trigger and then have it play the sound?

Setpos a gamelogic at the position you need, then get the gamelogic to say it.

Move the gamelogic around as necessary, and have a little script watching it:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">@(player distance soundlogic)

soundlogic playsound "sound"

exit

Thanks for the reply Red.

And.. M21man, does that code work - can you have a unit playing a sound?

ie: instead of

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

soundlogic playsound "sound"

you could have:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

Player playsound "sound"

to make the sound fire at the player's position.

What I want to do is have my zombies make some moaning noises, so if I could use

_myzombie playsound "moan1"

that'd be great. It certainly doesn't say you can do that in the command ref. I will try it tomorrow!

Cheers

I use say rather than playsound to get positional sound from my planes

Thanks for your replies. "Say" does just the job.
