is there a way to tell what channel a sound is being played on?
I want to stop a rain soundeffect when my player touches a trigger but I don't know what channel yje sound is on.

Get the channel used to play the sound that you wants to stop.
Create a channel variable (integer) to get the value:

Code: Select all

channel = PlaySound2("data/explode.wav", 1, 1, 0);

.......Huh?

Create an integer variable called whatever you want it to be, in this case "channel".
When playing the sound use

Code: Select all

channel = PlaySound2("data/explode.wav", 1, 1, 0);

This way you assign the wav sound to that channel (variable).
When you want to stop that sound just use

Code: Select all

stopSound(channel);

and don't use quotation marks as "channel" is a variable.
