get in vehicle, play sound

[illmatic]

?:vehicle player == player : goto "takeoff"

#takeoff

playsound "takeoff"

am i doing this correct, i get unknown operator, when a player enters the cessna i want the sound to be played but so only he can hear it, but everyone can here this i think

[illmatic]

i have a feeling i shouldnt of made the empty unit exec that script, should i define the name of the plane in the script, help please someone

Is your sound defined in the description.ext file in your mission folder?

it is ya

class CfgSounds
{
sounds[] = {takeoff, sound};

class takeoff
{
name = "takeoff";
sound[] = {"takeoff.ogg", db+120, 1.0};
titles[] =

{
};
};

[Planck]

Try this:

class CfgSounds
{
   sounds[] = {takeoff};

   class takeoff
   {
      name = "takeoff";
      sound[] = {"takeoff.ogg", db+120, 1.0};
      titles[] = { }
   };
};

ty sounds working ok, but i still need to get the script to work when the player enters the vehicle

[Planck]

Your example:

?:vehicle player == player : goto "takeoff"

is not correct.

Try this one:

? vehicle player != player : goto "takeoff"

And just for info:

?:vehicle player == player: goto "takeoff"

creates an error because you made a mistake

?vehicle player == player: goto "takeoff"

would have been the correct syntax

:note the :

Off course Planck already sorted that error out when posting
the correct solution for your problem.

thanks guys, im using "this exec "cessnasound.sqs" in the planes init field and it plays the sound right away, how could i only make the sound appear if someone goes into that plane, and only that plane no other vehicle???

[Chris Death]

dunno exactly, how you did setup your script, but what about
a condition like:

?vehicle whoever == exactly_that_plane: goto "takeoff"

-------------------------------------------------------------

?vehicle guy1 == cessna1: goto "takeoff"
#takeoff

playsound "takeoff"

-------------------------------------------------------------

how should i exec the script, and the sound just plays.... i need it so, if guy1 enters the plane, the sound goes off so only he can here, and should i exec the script in the guys1 init or the planes???

[Planck]

If what you posted is your script.........

?vehicle guy1 == cessna1: goto "takeoff"
#takeoff

playsound "takeoff"

Then what this does is:

1./ It checks if guy1 is in the cessna

2./ If he is it goes to "takeoff"

3./ If he isn't in the cessna it goes to the next line which is "takeoff"

4./ It drops through this to the following line and plays the sound.

So........in effect your script plays the sound whether guy1 is in the cessna or not.

Try this:

#check
?vehicle guy1 == cessna1: goto "takeoff"
~0.2
goto "check"

#takeoff

playsound "takeoff"

thanks once again planck, is there anyway i can make only guy1 hear the sound when he enters the plane, because others can hear it as well soon as the activates #takeoff

[Planck]

Sorry......that one is beyond my knowledge as I very very seldom dabble with multiplayer stuff.

You might have to wait for someone else to help with that one.
