function sound_(path)
if par1 then return end
parse("sv_sound ...")

end
addhook("second","sec")

Mami Tomoe: How will the sounds get triggered? By pressing a button or by saying a specific text? Masea: your method is too hard I have like 20 or more sounds and they are all triggered randomly 1

SOUNDS = {
[1] = {
path = "wada.wav",
duration = 132, --sec
},
[2] = {
path = "asdasdasd.wav",
duration = 92, --sec
}
}
local randomsound = math.random(1,#SOUNDS)
parse('sv_sound '..SOUNDS[randomsound].path)
Mami Tomoe: Try this code, I'm not sure if this is what you are demanding.1

sounds = {
[1] = "sfx/NAME1.wav";
[2] = "sfx/NAME2.wav";
[3] = "sfx/NAME3.wav";
};
function _kill(id)
parse("sv_sound "..sounds[math.random(1, #sounds)]);
end
addhook("kill", "_kill")
For example:
Double kill!
Legendary!
and other players might kill as well so I don't want the sounds to play all together so plz is there a way to just CHECK if a sound is being played?? plz @
DC: or anyyyy @ Omghelpme: Mami Tomoe: What about if the sound plays only for the killer? Will that solve your issue? Mami Tomoe: Don't forget my first post dude. I did what you've wanted from us already. 1

--untested
-- edit it.
sounds = {"mysound1", "mysound2"}
times = {3000, 5000} -- first song is 3 secs long, 2nd is 5secs long
isSoundRunning = false
function killSound()
isSoundRunning = false
end
function playSound(id)
if (isSoundRunning == false) then
parse("sound "..sounds[id])
timer(times[id], "killSound")
isSoundRunning = true
end
end
timerDo you want to hear the ignored sounds after the current sound has ended?
(Example: while "doublekill" is playing, someone did a tripple kill so after "doublekill" has ended, youll hear a "tripplekill")
autor has written
so plz is there a way to just CHECK if a sound is being played?
Yes, if you keep track of the time. You can make a function like getCurrentSound().
Bowlinghead:'s code so it uses a queue:
The kill hook is just an example. You call the queueSound function whenever you need to play a sound, and then the ms100 hook will take care of playing the sounds in order.
PS: not tested.
PS 2: Queueing many sounds in short intervals will cause a total mess. So be careful.
Zeik: Thank you! It seems like it might work 
Hello!!! < This is an edit!
I added this function because I need it to play sometimes to one player only
But when I use it the game freeze ( stuck in while!

function playSound2(id, sfx)
local temp=false
while temp==false do
if (isSoundRunning == false) then
if (not List.isEmpty(queue)) then
isSoundRunning = true
parse("sv_sound2 "..id.." "..sfx[1])
timer(sfx[2], "killSound")
temp=true
end
end
end
end
plz help thx

Mami Tomoe: I don't know what you're trying to do but it won't work like that because the while loop will only end when isSoundRunning is false (is the only if block that changes temp state). So when it's true it's an infinite loop, thus the game freezes. sv_sound2because the code only supports
sv_sound
Here's the complete code:
Again, it's not tested.
PS: Basically, 0 is for global sound, and the rest are private.

The previous code worked I just need a function that will send it to a single player
I need support for
sv_soundand
sv_sound2
plz
Mami Tomoe: You should post the errors otherwise I can't help much... 1

main is the main script that makes cool hooks
play is the script you gave me
score is the script that sends sound commands to play
In fact this functionality is completely removed from dedicated servers because it's not needed and it might even lead to issues because servers commonly don't have audio and video drivers at all. Therefore the server does not even know the length of the used audio files.
So the only thing you can do is to - like already suggested - save the duration of all audio samples somehow and check the duration manually.
To solve the issue with the per-player sound you could use
timer and just put the player ID in as parameter:1
timer(soundDuration, "callbackFunction", playerID)
