Question: How to fix sound cue from constantly being triggered.

[FXTR4]

I have 2 sound cues set to a triggered button. the button and my triggers and everything are working great. It's done through Matinee and Blueprint. the sound cues are going through my Blueprint.

The problem is this. Players are able to constantly set the sound cues off during a game by triggering the button (only the sounds that are constantly re activated) It becomes VERY annoying during a game when players keep hitting the button. How can I set it to only play the cues once per trigger, so they can only be triggered again after the initial trigger has reset.

I hope this makes sense? I've attached a video.

Also, when you shoot the trigger with a weapon the sounds play twice as loud as they do when you run into the trigger, is there a way to fix this? I've noticed that certain weapons are unable to set the trigger off, is that an editor bug or is that in the settings too?


Thanks again!!!

Well... why not just disable the trigger itself for a set amount of time after it's pressed... (yep it's me again)

lol hello again :P and thx!

I could do that, I just need to work out how to do that :P

Attached a screen shot of my current BluePrint.

I tried using the Destroy actor in BluePrint, but it just stops the trigger for being activated again. This would be great if there was a way to add a reset after the trigger got destroyed.

Also thought that a delay after the reverse might work, but it won't compile when I do that.

Try a multigate after your trigger and before the Play:



Out 0 links to what you have now
Out 1 links say, a delay node, and goes back around to "Reset" on the gate.
Loop should be off so the button can't be mashed over and over to bypass that. pressing it a third time with Loop off should simply make it do nothing.
Make the start index 0.

This is all theory for now, but worth a try.

OMG you are a STAR! That worked! Thanks so much! I've attached a screen of the working Bluepring layout in case anyone else needs to do this.
