Hello!

I created a reloading sound for players, the character says with emit sound: "I'm reloading!!".

The sound works perfectly when no one is shooting, but the problem is that the engine shoot sounds overlaps my sound.

Any way to fix it?

My code (there are 4 possible reload sound random choosed):

PHP Code:

new random = random_num(1, 4)
        if (random == 1) {
        emit_sound(id, CHAN_VOICE, reload1, 1.0, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM)
        } else if (random == 2) {
        emit_sound(id, CHAN_VOICE, reload2, 1.0, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM)
        } else if (random == 3) {
        emit_sound(id, CHAN_VOICE, reload3, 1.0, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM)
        } else if (random == 4) {
        emit_sound(id, CHAN_VOICE, reload4, 1.0, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM)
        } 


I don't understand for example why Zombie Madness item of zombie plague always plays sound correctly and why my sounds are being overlapped

PD: I tested all channels. Including CHAN_AUTO.

Have you tried other channels?

To improve, use switch statement instead.

or create string array and use random function.

change from CHAN_VOICE to CHAN_WEAPON

Edit:
(From Zombie Madness)

PHP Code:

emit_sound(id, CHAN_VOICE, sound, 1.0, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM) 


Basically, Zombie Madness using CHAN_VOICE channel so the sound would overlap. I usually use CHAN_WEAPON for shooting sounds and CHAN_ITEM for other effect on the gun.

But he said that he checked it on all channels

Check if any of your weapon you are using have CHAN_AUTO or CHAN_VOICE for shooting sound

I never modified weapon sounds, so they are using the default shooting channel...

If possible, show full code is recommended (or that is all you wrote?)
