Play Audio THEN Show Dialog

[bDunks]

Right now I am trying to play a sound, then have dialog show up after. Not both at the same time.

I would like it to go like this.

Code: Select all

voice "sound/monster.mp3" #plays scary sound

b "What was that?!!!" #When audio completes, b says this.

Is there a way to do this without pause x?
Thank you.

Use the pause statement

Code: Select all

    play sound "sound/monster.mp3"
    $pause(1)
    b "What was that?"

Adjust the number in the pause statement to adjust the wait time in seconds. So, for example, two and a half seconds would be $pause(2,5)

Oops!
Forgot to put in the question how to do this without pause.
Have edited the post.
I guess now the more I think on it, it's not a big deal to do it this way.
Thank you.

It seems that this only works properly.

Code: Select all

    play sound "sound/monster.mp3" #or voice "sound/monster.mp3"
    $ renpy.pause(1)
    b "What was that?"

I haven't used pause in a long time. It may be Pause instead (capital P)

If you wish to avoid using pause, you can achieve a similar result with the wait text tag

Code: Select all

    play sound "mysound.mp3"
    b "{w=1.0}What was that?"

I had not seen that yet.
Thank you!
