I want to create a script that loops background music after certain events for the MUD I play, such as events that would only occur if I move from one area to another. I've made the script, I've made the trigger, and I have the sound in a folder called "sounds" directly under the Mushclient folder, but no matter what I do the sound doesn't play. I know I'm doing this wrong, or it would work, so what am I doing wrong and how do I fix it?

Can you post the script?

I forgot to post the script I'm using, sorry:


((I might not be writing this right, I don't usually do triggers in raw format))

<trigger
enabled="y"
match="You return to your home plane."
omit_from_output="n"
regexp="n"
sequence="100"
>
<send>PlaySound (4, "Sora.wav", true, -3, 0)</send>
</trigger>


I don't know how to export a trigger, so that's probably very rough and inaccurate compared to how it should look...

And yes, I did practically nothing but rip the line of code, studying it's properties, and putting it in without knowing how it's supposed to mesh with input/triggers/other code. I can't even rip code right X3

Well, I figured out my own fatal flaw, I copied the uncoverted MP3 file to my sounds folder, instead of the converted WAV file. All's well that ends well.
