Play sound effects with delay

[Yuuji]

Hello! I want to play some of sound effects in my game with delay. So I want next phrase to begin appear on say screen and after couple of seconds from that moment sound effect should play. Is there any way to do that? I'd appreciate any help with that.

Short of just queuing up silence, no.

You can also choose where in the sentence the sound will play, by using the no wait tag and the extend character. Of course this will only have some effect if cps is not zero.

Code: Select all

    "Eileen tried to say something more, but {nw}"
    play sound "punch.ogg"
    extend "Lucy knocked her down before she could do it."

PyTom, Donmai, thank you for your answers!

Akakyouryuu made a code to run functions with delay

Code: Select all

# http://akakyouryuu.com/配布物/renpy/
# 遅延実行のスクリプトです。
# show expression delay_run(3, [renpy.curry(camera_move)(0, 0, 1000, 0, 3), renpy.restart_interaction])
# show expression delay_run(3, hogehoge_function)
#
# delay_run(delay, functions)
# delay: 遅延する秒数です。
# functions: 遅延実行する関数または関数のリストです。引数を使用したい場合は
# renpy.curry関数を使用してください。

    class DelayRunBehavior(renpy.display.layout.Null):

        def __init__(self, delay, functions, *args, **properties):
            super(DelayRunBehavior, self).__init__(**properties)

            self.delay = delay
            if not isinstance(functions, list):
                functions = [functions]
            self.functions = functions
            self.args = args

        def event(self, ev, x, y, st):

            if st >= self.delay:

                if renpy.game.interface.drawn_since(st - self.delay):
                    for function in self.functions:
                        function()
                    self.functions = []
    delay_run = renpy.ui.Wrapper(DelayRunBehavior)

You can play sound like
$delay_run(1.0, [renpy.curry(renpy.music.play)("filename","sound"), renpy.restart_interaction])
