Sound effect when health=0?
I am making a 2D game. When the player's health drops to 0 (when the player dies), I want a sound effect to play. How can I do it? Any kind of help would be appreciated. Thanks :)
Attach an Audio Source component, and basically, in psuedocode:
AudioSource youraudiosource;
void Update () {
if (healthscript.currentHealth <= 0)
youraudiosource.Play();
}
I did that, but I can't attach the sound in the inspector. When I try this method, the sound plays regardless, even though I put it in
if(currentHealth <= 0) {
}
I fixed a few things. Now it plays it when the character dies, but it also plays it at the beginning.
Okay I fixed it. I used GetComponent to access the audio source, and then I used .play in the if statemnt and .Stop in void Start. Thanks for your help :)
I would recommend a prefab and instantiating it, as then you can play multiple sounds at once. you can Destroy the prefab after about 10 seconds, or a little more than however many seconds the sound will play. GameObject.FindObjectOfType<PlaySound> ().Play (click, vol)
EDIT: Unity Answers is messing up all my code... http://pastebin.com/53aVEZZ8
Your sound was probably playing at the start because the checkbox for 'Play on Awake' was ticked, by default it is always ticked so you need to uncheck it if you don't want it to play at the start.
