Hey guys,
another quick question.

How do I randomly select a sound to play when a certain area of the menu is clicked?

I've got all the sounds, the area and all that, but the fact is, when I click, it doesn't delay the click so it plays multiple copies at once.

I want the player to be able to click once, then be forced to let go of the mouse button to be able to click that area again.

I've done this before, but not with the current situation of code I have.

I haven't really used the "rnd" command before so I'm going to need some help.

Here's the code:

Each time you call RND you'll get a different number, so you need to get one RND number into a variable and then reuse it.

You're also setting a flag when you play the sound, but then you're immediately clearing that flag.

Try something like this:

Never mind what I wrote earlier in this post. I didn't notice the fact that it checks if the sound is playing. Thanks!
