[Xerte] 2.x Double hit with onSoundComplete

Tue Aug 24 14:35:55 BST 2010

Much handier.
Cheers!

How do get the length of a dimensional array?

For 4 loops:

myArray.push({});

myArray[i].whatever1 = 'fred';
myArray[i].whatever2 = 'fred';
myArray[i].whatever3 = 'fred';

debug(myArray.length);

//gives me 1

Just tried this:  you can set sounds up the native flash
way

mySound = new Sound();

mySound.loadSound(FileLocation + 'sound.mp3');

and then control it using the sound class’s native methods
like mySound.start();

Iconid.reset()
is less bytes.

Iconid.sound.stop()

Believe it or not a sound
icon is really a decision icon, to handle the synched pages stuff.

That
may be it.

I tried iconid.stop() and it didn't do booger.

So I hunted around and found reset()

It calls the sound’s
stop() method. Not sure if that trips the event or not,

I'm pretty sure the sounds were colliding after page turn.

Or at least if I blocked the page turn, I do not get a double hit.

Is it using reset() on the sound?

Maybe because the sound is
being killed when the page turns? There is code in the engine that does that on
each page turn: it dives the content and stops sounds / videos and some other
stuff.

It is being called, then a templated page turn happens.

I think I may know what is happening, but I solved the original issue another
way.

If you advanced the pages quickly enough, sounds were not happening when they
should.

I figured it must be a collision (trying to play a sound that was still
loaded/in progress.

Since I didn't have AWunloadSoundDriver handy, ;-) I used a reset() at the top
of the play logic and that seems to have cured it.

But for the archives, I think it may not have been a double hit on the same
event trap.

The template created identical event traps at the bottom of each page.

So I think on page turn, the page 1 trap fired, then on sound completion in
page 2, it fired that one.

Though that still shouldn't happen, e.g. why would the page 1 trap fire if the
sound wasn't complete?

How is the sound being
stopped to trigger the two events? Just playing to the end and then stopping?
Or are you stopping it some other way?

Anyone have any ideas why an onSoundComplete
event would be triggering twice?

Just a little beep when the user hits a button.

I get 1 beep, but my event catcher is triggering twice.
