loop a sound while typing

[Granny Delicioso]

hey sup

i've never scripted a dang thing in my life, but i want to make an attachment that loops a sound while i'm typing, so that it looks like i'm beatboxing when i talk

but i don't know where to begin, and like i said, i've never scripted before

i tried borrowing premade scripts but none of them seemed to work. maybe i'm doing something wrong?

i dunno, help me out. teach me the ways... of the script....

Run a timer that uses llGetAgentInfo() to test if you're typing.

timer() {   if (llGetAgentInfo() & AGENT_TYPING) llLoopSound("beatbox", 0.2);
   else llStopSound();}

The script above will produce an error, because the the UUID of the Agent who is typing is missing. Here is a working version with the full script:

 

default{    state_entry()    {       llSetTimerEvent(1);//the time in seconds here should match the length of your typing sound loop..    }  timer() {                    if (llGetAgentInfo(llGetOwner()) & AGENT_TYPING)                            {                 llLoopSound("mysound", 0.2);                      }                              else                {                llStopSound();                 }        }}

Thank you very much for the last one, but it doesn't work in script forbidden zones. Is there any way to make it to? Preload, or something like that? Sorry not much up to scripting.
