Using Time with OnGUI Help

Questions & Answers
1

Hello, I am new to Scripting and I ran into a problem.

Here is an example of what I am trying to do:

var clip : AudioClip;

function OnGUI {

    if (GUI.Button (Rect (0,0,0,0), "Level 1")) {

    audio.PlayOneShot(clip);

    // Time Delay

    Application.LoadLevel(1);

    }

}

Where I put // Time Delay, I needed something to delay Application.LoadLevel(1); from happening yet, so I could hear the full audio clip before loading level 1.

Remember that I am new to scripting.

Thank you everyone :slight_smile: I hope you can help

Hummm, if I were you, I wouldn’t use PlayOneShot. Make sure you have an AudioSource Component on your object, set it to playOnAwake = false, loop = false, then the following code will wait the precise time of your clip before launching the next level.

var myClip : AudioClip;

function OnGUI() { 

    if (GUI.Button (Rect (0,0,100,35), "Level 1")) {
    audio.clip = myClip;
    audio.Play();

    WaitTillClipFinishesAndLoadLevel();

    }

}

function WaitTillClipFinishesAndLoadLevel(){
    while(audio.isPlaying)
    {
       yield;
    }
    Application.LoadLevel(1);
}

P.S.: Audio is my specialty… In case you need help!

As correctly stated by @OrangeLightning you cannot yield a OnGui. So you need a coroutine.

 var clip : AudioClip;
var second : float;

function OnGUI (){

    if (GUI.Button (Rect (0,0,0,0), "Level 1")) {

    audio.PlayOneShot(clip);

    Wait();

    }

}

function Wait(){
yield WaitForSeconds(second);
Application.LoadLevel(1);
}

This one should work as I use it.
