i been working on a map off and on when i have time been months since ive done anything to it but started working on it again to practice coding, will admit not the best at it i never took a class or anything so here is the issue i have, was working on a music easter egg and a few months ago had it working flawlessly but went back in and did some work on the map in radiant recompiled and did a test now the egg is broken a few issues the song does not play and one one of the two eggs it displays the message 3 times it should only display once it appears aside from that the code is fine no errors i tried a few things but nothing fixed it and hit a wall so here is the code i have the second egg playsound different just as a test to see if any changes so just ignore the difference ill copy and past the stuff i did below

is there something in this code that isnt correct that im missing or is the playsound set up wrong i do have 2 sounds in the alias i used the header from asylum and the first music line for the intro and modified it to reflect the songs i added and location again below

fixed the above issue but now have a much more annoying one for some odd reason some iPrintlnbold messages pop up multiple times instead of the 1 time they should and the music plays but does more or less the same thing it starts the track about 3 times a few seconds apart and sounds aweful any ideas on why this may be happening

which message(s) shows up multiple times?

Do you still need help with the "PlaySound" function?

was trying to reply but my post is locked but the answer is i did fix my original code and it works fine now but got a question i have been trying to make an audio egg using an array and am not the best with arrays at all but here is the idea, i want to use an array to play a song based on the order the triggers where hit now here is the question part how would i take the element hit and move that element to another array
i feel like im making this more confusing than it needs to be but this is a simplified version of what i want

say object[0] is hit i want it to take object[0] and add it to the next empty slot in order

so later i can check to see the order and have it play a track based on the order of the order[]

maybe this is easier than im making it but i understand arrays for crap but was the only way i could think of to do this kind of thing
that is where im stuck at im sure the rest i can figure out but the array part is what is confusing to me the code is unfinished as i dont know what to do to track my triggers

level.eggOrder = [];
level.eggOrder[0] = undefined;
level.eggOrder[1] = undefined;
level.eggOrder[2] = undefined;
level.eggOrder[3] = undefined;
level.eggOrder[4] = undefined;
level.eggOrder[5] = undefined;

level.eggObjectArray =[] ;
level.eggObjectArray[0]= getEnt ("trigger1","trigger");
level.eggObjectArray[1] = getEnt ("trigger2","trigger");
level.eggObjectArray[2] = getEnt ("trigger3","trigger");
level.eggObjectArray[3] = getEnt ("trigger4","trigger");
level.eggObjectArray[4] = getEnt ("trigger5","trigger");
level.eggObjectArray[5] = getEnt ("trigger6","trigger");

   
    for (i=0;i<level.eggObjectArray.size;i++)
    {
   
    trigs = level.eggObjectArray gettrighit(level.eggObjectArray);
   
   }
}
gettrighit(level.eggObjectArray);
{
  trigs = level.eggObjectArray;
self waittill("trigger");
//now here is where i want the magic to happen
//basically i want to get the trigger hit

• to be moved to
• in my other array

// basically my idea is to later do something like
//again simplified
    if(order[0]==eggObjectArray[2]&& order[1] == eggObjectArray[3])

    {
    songfuction();



// overly simplified but think maybe you get the idea here
    }
or maybe do it in a switch statement im open to suggestions on this part  
}
any help would be great im a bit lost on how i should go about doing something like this i been watching tuts on c arrays but they help 0 with this as the array examples are overly simplified so no such use of an array is examplified i also understang gsc is a bit different from c++ i seen a few ways from messing with code but looks basically the same to me
