How would I make a working continuous script only run when the player is in a trigger volume?

Here's the script

(script continuous oblmusic
	(sleep 100)
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_01")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_01" none 1)
			(sleep 4440) 
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_01")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_03")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_03" none 1)
			(sleep 8300)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_03")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_04")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_04" none 1)
			(sleep 8400)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_04")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_06")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_06" none 1)
			(sleep 5490)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_06")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_07")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_07" none 1)
			(sleep 6150)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_07")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_08")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_08" none 1)
			(sleep 7460)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_08")
			(sound_looping_predict "banshee64\music\atmosphere_09")
			(sound_looping_start "banshee64\music\atmosphere_09" none 1)
			(sleep 7370)
			(sound_looping_stop "banshee64\music\atmosphere_09")
)

I'd like it so the sound_looping would kind of fade out where it is when the player leaves the trigger volume and picks back up where it was when the player reenters, I don't know if that specifically is possible; but in general how would I link the script to a trigger volume?

(script continuous SCRIPT_NAME
     (if (volume_test_object TRIGGER_VOLUME PLAYER_OBJECT)
          (begin
               (wake oblmusic)
          )
     (sleep oblmusic)
     )
)

Replace SCRIPT_NAME TRIGGER_VOLUME and PLAYER_OBJECT with your data.

When a player leaves the trigger volume, your script will stop playing. When they re-enter, your script will start playing.

This won't stop the song that very second, but it'll prevent any further commands (the next part of the song) from playing until the player has returned.

so the oblmusic script needs to be dormant?

Nope, just determine a variable for when it should start. For example

(global boolean safety_word 0)


(script startup activator

(sleep_until volume_test_objects my_arse (players)
(set safety_word 1)
)




(script continuous oblmusic

(sleep_until (= 1 safety_worD))


...stuff goes here...

)

(sleep) actually has another variable outside of the tick count

(sleep <short> [<script>])	pauses execution of this script (or, optionally, another script) for the specified number of ticks. (1 tick = 1/30 second	(sleep 30 more_weapons

If the string is left blank, it defaults to the calling script.

You may actually have to use

(sleep -1 oblmusic)

instead, but either way you can force any script (dormant, stub, static, startup or continuous) to sleep for any time from any other script.





Edit:


Or this works as well;

(script continuous oblmusic
     (sleep -1)

     ....stuff goes here...
)


(script startup activator

(sleep_until (volume_test_objects my_arse (players)) 5)

(wake oblmusic)

)
