Play WAV while animation is playing ?

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Is there an easy way to play a wav sound while my sprite is playing and stop when the sequence is complete?

Thanks.

spriteInstance.animating returns true if the sprite is animating

so constantly check for “animating” and stop the sound if it returns false…

should work.

Rather than polling I found this works well

A string indicating the phase which the sprite animation is currently in. Can be one of the following values:

“end” - the sprite stops playing
“loop” - the sprite loops (from last to first, or reverses direction)
“next” - the sprite’s next frame is played
Syntax:
event.phase

Example:
local function spriteListener( event )
print( “Sprite listener” … event.name, event.sprite, event.phase,
event.sprite.sequence
end

– Add sprite listener
instance:addEventListener( “sprite”, spriteListener )
