Title: Sounds at start of map
Post by: Shifty on December 06, 2010, 04:40:03 am

Ok so my experimental mini map thing is done, but now I would like to move onto a new map. It's gonna be an experimental kind map, but anyway. I want to have a sound play once the map loads, then a cp message countdown from 10, then another sound, and no more of that stuff for the rest of the game. I have tried various things with triggers and such, but none work. Could anyone walk me though the steps needed to make this happen?

Thanks :D

Easy.

Trigger_Always [Keys] 'Target: Start_Sound'
 Target_Speaker [Keys] 'TargetName: Start_Sound', 'Noise: sounds/BLAH.wav'

Trigger_Always [Keys] 'Target: CountDown10'
 Target_Print [Keys] 'TargetName: CountDown10', 'Message: 10'
 Target_Delay [Keys] 'Target: CountDown9', 'TargetName: CountDown10', 'Wait: 1'
  Target_Print [Keys] 'TargetName: CountDown9', 'Message: 9'
  Target_Delay [Keys] 'Target: CountDown8', 'TargetName: CountDown9', 'Wait: 1'
  ...
   Target_Print [Keys] 'TargetName: CountDown0', 'Message: 0'
   Target_Speaker [Keys] 'TargetName: CountDown0', 'Noise: sounds/BLAH.wav'

Trigger_Always - Activates its Targets when the map loads.
[Keys] - With the entity selected hit 'N', type my listed 'KEY: VALUE's in to the corresponding fields, hitting enter/return after typing the value for each one (It'll then be added to the list above).

Awesome, I'll give that a go. Thanks :)

EDIT:

Works like a charm! :) So if I also want doors to open at this point (and stay open) what would be the best way to do this? Just a door with targetname countdown0 and wait 999999 kinda thing?

Yes.
