easy random song/ sfx function in Scripting

this script is used to play a random song , sfx, or vo clip it is very basic but can be easily expanded and implimented into your map.
will need to be modified for black ops 3 if you plan to use it in that game as the gsc language changed a bit but will work fine as is in WAW and BO1

Code Snippet

Plaintext

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//Can use trigger damage or radius.// will need edited for trigger use
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//thread rand_sound();//put with thread calls//level.IsPlaying = false;//put with thread calls default is false
//use level.IsPlaying in any other audio eggs as a flag to prevent songs from overlapping and check with an
// if statement before allowing playback
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//this function can be used for music tracks, sound fx, voice overs, or whatever other kinds of sound you 
//want to play
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
rand_sound()
{


trig = getent("play_rand_song" , "targetname");

songs[songs.size] = "";//alias name in ""
songs[songs.size] = "";
songs[songs.size] = "";
songs[songs.size] = "";
songs[songs.size] = "";


song = undefined;
time = undefined;

players = getplayers();

for(;;)
{
trig waittill("trigger");
 if(level.IsPlaying == false)
{
    
    for(i = 0; i < songs.size; i++)
    {
    songs = array_randomize(songs);
    song = songs[i];
    if(song == "") time = ;// add in the alias name and set the time to be = to the length of the song in seconds for each song
    if(song == "") time = ;
    if(song == "") time = ;
    if(song == "") time = ;
    if(song == "") time = ;
        }
        for(x = 0; x < players.size; x++)
        {
        players[x] playsound(song);
        
        }

        level.IsPlaying = true;
        wait(time);
        level.IsPlaying = false;    

}

}
//thread rand_sound(); // uncomment this to reuse 
}

again this is a pretty basic function and was written to be a stand alone function but you could remove the trigger part of the code and set that up in another function then call this one to play a random song
