Add Loop using attribute?

codemates

Is it possible to change the loop attribute using another attribute?

For example I want to have an on/off button that will checked first if the sound I want to play will loop or not.

Thanks

Hi Tshirtbooth, I got that part. I think my problem is still trying to learn where I should place the rules. I was thinking that the rule had to be put on the sound itself. Anyways, thanks for your patience.

I do have a follow up question... Any idea why I got this to work but for some reason it will only loop if I press and hold on the key. I have Actor received event -> Touch -> Pressed selected. When I press on the button it plays the sound but when I enable the loop I have to hold the button to have a continuous loop.

Any idea?

Here's a screenshot of my rules

yep because you have a rule that says when touch is pressed when its no longer press it will not loop.

you need to make a trigger

when game.loop = 1 then loop when it = 2 play but dont loop and then when you want to stop it change it to 0

hope that helps

cheers

Slow but surely... I finally figured out what you meant by setting up triggers. Not sure if the most optimal way of doing it but it's doing what I wanted it to do Thanks for your help!
