Creating a music channel

[Potato0095]

Hi, I want to create a music channel, my question is: how. I'm trying to use a string I found in the sound doc:

Code: Select all

renpy.music.register_channel("sfx1", "sfx")

It gives me the error "expected statement", so I just used a $ (creating a single Python statement). Ren'Py at first accepts it (the game launchs it), but when the string comes, gives me another error.

While running game code:
File "game/script.rpy", line 231, in script
$ renpy.music.register_channel("sfx1", "sfx")
File "game/script.rpy", line 231, in <module>
$ renpy.music.register_channel("sfx1", "sfx")
Exception: Can't register channel outside of init phase.

-- Full Traceback ------------------------------------------------------------

Full traceback:
File "game/script.rpy", line 231, in script
$ renpy.music.register_channel("sfx1", "sfx")

raise Exception("Can't register channel outside of init phase.")
Exception: Can't register channel outside of init phase.

Making it short, I need a init block, but I don't know anything about it.

In short:

Code: Select all

init python:
    renpy.music.register_channel("sfx1", "sfx")
