I have a sound file that starts when the user holds down the S key. If they release the S key the sound stops.

+ Code Snippet

Function playSoundWhenS(skeydown)
 key = keystate(31)
  if key = 1 and skeydown = 0 then play sound 1
  if key = 0 and skeydown = 1 then stop sound 1
  skeydown = key

EndFunction skeydown

What I need is a 2nd sound file to play ONLY if the WHOLE 1st sound file is played. So if the user releases the S Key before the 1st sound file is done the 2nd sound file wont play.

(The 2nd sound file doesnt need the S key to be kept pressed in order to play, like the 1st sound file)

Any Help Please...

try this?

+ Code Snippet

Function playSoundWhenS(skeydown)
 key = keystate(31)
  if key = 1 and skeydown = 0 then play sound 1
  if key = 0 and skeydown = 1 then pause sound 1
  if sound paused (1) : PlayNextSound=0 : stop sound 1
  else : PlayNextSound=1

EndFunction PlayNextSound

it checks to see if the user let go using pause, as you can check if it is paused easy enough, if it is paused it then stops it and tells you its being stopped.

I keep getting "COMMAND LINE OUT OF PLACE AT LINE 308" error

+ Code Snippet

skeydown = playSoundWhenS(skeydown)



Function playSoundWhenS(skeydown)
key = keystate(31)
  if key = 1 and skeydown = 0 then play sound 1
  if key = 0 and skeydown = 1 then pause sound 1
if sound paused (1) : PlayNextSound=0 : stop sound 1
else : PlayNextSound=1

EndFunction PlayNextSound

There's no endif in your snippit, try this...

+ Code Snippet

skeydown = playSoundWhenS(skeydown)


Function playSoundWhenS( skeydown )
   key = keystate(31)
   if key = 1 and skeydown = 0 then play sound 1
   if key = 0 and skeydown = 1 then pause sound 1
   if sound paused (1)
      PlayNextSound=0
      stop sound 1
   else
      PlayNextSound=1
   EndIf
EndFunction PlayNextSound

Add a few global variables called "SOUND" "FIRSTSOUND" "LASTSOUND" then change your code to something like:

+ Code Snippet

skeydown = playSoundWhenS(skeydown)


Function playSoundWhenS( skeydown )
   key = keystate(31)
   if key = 1 and skeydown = 0 then play sound SOUND
   if key = 0 and skeydown = 1 then pause sound SOUND
   if sound paused (SOUND)
      PlayNextSound=0
      stop sound SOUND
      inc SOUND
      if SOUND>LASTSOUND then SOUND=FIRSTSOUND
      play sound SOUND
   else
      PlayNextSound=1
   EndIf
EndFunction PlayNextSound

EDIT: I should read my code before posting sorry for the edits!

I had it return a value specially so you could. after you've put that function in try this:

+ Code Snippet

_Play_NEXT = playSoundWhenS( skeydown )
if _Play_NEXT = 1 then play sound _SOUND

where skeydown is the paremeter of wether the s key is down and _SOUND is the number of the sound you want to play.
