Flash AS2 (CS4) - play sounds in sequence when each has ended.

Question

Hi people,

I have 3 sounds that i would like to play, they are in my library. I can play any of of them using soundName.start(0,1) with the code below:

     firstSound = new Sound();
     firstSound.attachSound("Sound1");
     secondSound = new Sound();
     secondSound.attachSound("Sound2");
     thirdSound = new Sound();
     thirdSound.attachSound("Sound3");

The trouble i am having is, how can i know when sound1 has finished playing so i can then play sound2 and then sound3 immediatly after?

Thanks, Kohan.

Answer 1

You can calculate frame number of the sound ending using the framerate and sound lenght. After that you can call AddFrameScript(frameNum, function) and add code to play next sound.
