Marble sound

[akr]

I am thinking about how to make a marble game on iPhone. Whats the best way to play a "rolling" sound when the marble is rolling?

idea:

Ondraw: if (xvelocity > 0 && yvelocity > 0) playsound("marble_rolling"); hmmm. Will not work because playsound would be called every tick....

I think the best way is play the sound with a loop when the ball start the movment
and stop the sound when the balls stop.

Does it start rolling when you click a button? Then you can do something like:
On Button Down

Code: Select all

Playsound("Marble_Rolling")
CreateTimer("Event Actor", "RollLength", Time The Marble_Rolling takes);

On Timer Finish

Code: Select all

if (velocities > 0)
{
Playsound("Marble_Rolling")
CreateTimer("Event Actor", "RollLength", Time The Marble_Rolling takes);
}
