Play audio.PlayOneShot() once in an Update() function
Hi there,
I have looked through many forums and have tried all sorts of methods (booleans, invokes, coroutines) and cannot get a sound to play only once when my character performs an animation (swiping), because it's in an UpdateDestination() function. Here is my code:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class BowserController : MonoBehaviour {
public Transform target;
public NavMeshAgent agent;
public bool stopUpdates = false;
public AudioClip runSound;
public AudioClip attackSound;
void Start() {
InvokeRepeating ("runningSound", 0.0f, 0.5f);
}
void Awake () {
agent = GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>();
InvokeRepeating("UpdateDestination", 0.1F, 0.1F);
}
void UpdateDestination(){
agent.SetDestination (target.position);
if (agent.remainingDistance > agent.stoppingDistance) {
animation.CrossFade ("chasing (1)", 0.3F);
stopUpdates = true;
}
else{
animation.CrossFade("swipe",0.3F);
audio.PlayOneShot (attackSound);
}
}
void runningSound ()
{
if (agent.remainingDistance>agent.stoppingDistance) {
audio.PlayOneShot (runSound);
}
}
}
My character's sound plays rapidly at multiple times. I'm sure you've come across this problem before and probably have an easy fix, but I just can't get my head around it! I thought it would be a simple solution but after many attempts I still cannot resolve this issue. Your time and support would be thoroughly appreciated.
Many thanks.
if(!audio.isPlaying)
{
audio.PlayOneShot(attackSound);//use the same check for runSound
}
Try using this:
AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint(runSound, transform.position);
I use it and it plays only once. If that doesn't work and you want to continue using your method then I suggest using a boolean to check if the sound has just played.
@Li0nSword That didn't work. Remember it's the attacking sound that I want to play. I'll experiment with booleans though. Thanks anyway!
@A$$anonymous$$J9 Just change the variable from runSound to attackSound. What do you mean by it didn't work? Does it not play at all or does it still play multiple times?
