i am trying to make it so that when i activate a control panel, a sound plays. the problem is that when i activate it, it plays the first 2 seconds then it repeats itsself, and i cant stop it. here is my script:


(script continuous play_song
(sleep_until ( = (device_get_position "thewin") 1 ) )
(begin
(sound_impulse_start "sound\ss\music\lolz\youwin" none 1))
)


if anyone knows how to fix it, help would be appreciated.

That's because it's a continuous script. The moment the sound is played, the script loops and sleeps until the control panel is once again 1. But, since the control panel is already at 1, it just goes ahead and plays the sound again. And again. And again...

So, just add this line below (sound_impulse_start):

(device_set_position "thewin" 0)

This will set the device back to "0" so it doesn't automatically loop. You could still cut it short and restart it by hitting the switch again, but that doesn't really matter.
