Shuffle or randomize which sound will play?

[maeglutz]

Hello ^^ I'm working on a typer and I'd like for the sounds to be randomized, so that it's not the same one everytime. Unfortunately, I don't understand how to put in multiple, let alone make them shuffle.

 

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
       llSetTimerEvent(1);
    }
  
timer() {
                    if (llGetAgentInfo(llGetOwner()) & AGENT_TYPING) 
       
                    {
                 llLoopSound("Typie", 0.2);  
                    }
              
                else 
               {
                llStopSound();
                 }
        }
}

 Here's what I have so far ^^

first , get all your sounds in a list in state entry.

 next count the items in your list of sounds and choose a random numbered one to play.

 

list sounds;

default

{

    state_entry()

    {   integer count;

        string name;

        while ( (name = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_SOUND, count))  )

        { sounds += name;

          ++count;   

        }

         llSetTimerEvent(0.2);

    }

   timer()

   { integer len = llGetListLength(sounds) - 1;

     if (llGetAgentInfo(llGetOwner()) & AGENT_TYPING) 

     {   integer place = llRound(  llFrand(len)    );

         llLoopSound( llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_SOUND, place), 0.2);  

       

     }              

      else 

     {   llStopSound();

     }

   }

}

Sooo, I put the sounds in the prim and just name them as numbers? Am I following you? ^^

this will get the names of the sounds automatically.

 just drop as many sounds as you want in the prim,

 and this script, and start typing to test it?
