Timer

I would like to know if there is a way to use a timer in krpano ?
I want for example to play a sound (with the current plugin) after X second where X would be a random value.
Is it something already developed or do I need to build an SWF plugin for that.
Thanks for your reply.

there is nothing like that available now. but if you know xml well you could use the math operations to generate a random number I know that can be done, then you could insert that into a delaycall() action.

Sorry but the delayCall which seem to be the most accurate function doesn't work with random
Here is my code :

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12

<action name="random">
		mul(randomvalue, random, 10);
  	roundval(randomvalue,0);
  	showlog(); 
  	trace('randomvalue=', randomvalue);
  	delayedcall(randomvalue, action(playS1); );
  	trace('randomvalue=', randomvalue);
  </action>
  
  <action name="playS1">
	playsound(s1,sounds/s1.mp3,1);
  </action>

Whatever the random value is the sound starts immediately.

Whereas this code works

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11

<action name="random">
		mul(randomvalue, random, 10);
  	roundval(randomvalue,0);
  	showlog(); 
  	trace('randomvalue=', randomvalue);
  	delayedcall(8, action(playS1); );
  </action>
  
  <action name="playS1">
	playsound(s1,sounds/s1.mp3,1);
  </action>

What is going on ?
Thanks

try changing

Source code

 
1

  	delayedcall(randomvalue, action(playS1); );
to

Source code

 
1

  	delayedcall(get(randomvalue), action(playS1); );


Without the get() you're passing the string value "randomvalue" as the first argument of delayedcall. get() will pass the value of the variable randomvalue.

hope this helps
