More useful sound emiters

[BillGates111]

Hey everyone!

I was making a little PHX car with wire stuff in it when I thought about the Sound Emiters for wire didn't have any outputs, I was thinking of ways that different outputs could be used. I came up with two useful things. 1. Length; The length of the sound file that that sound emiter is configured to, this could be useful for manything like, parhaphs, a autoplay radio. You could even add how long that sound file has been playing. Second of all is some sort of Selection Gateway that can convert MPH to Pitch Reletive in a simple manner of two imputs on the gateway (Pitch gain per MPH) these would be useful for the non-arithmatic-enrolled. That's all I really have at the moment so...

use E2 soundPlay functions

[immibis]

Pitch Relative = (MPH * constant value) + 100

where the constant value is your pitch per mph divided by 100

That's assuming you want it to be at 100% pitch when the car is stopped. If you want it to be at 0% pitch when the car is stopped then it's just:

Pitch Relative = MPH * constant value

use E2 soundPlay functions

I think there is a point, everything what the e2 can do should be able to be done with non e2 tools.

A Length output could be useful.

The sound length Lua function doesn't work correctly

Oh my god, it's Bill Gates!

I don't think you read the entire forum, I belive you were skimming it because I said that the Selection Gateway would be for anyone that didn't know how to use E2. I'm sure you've heard of KlayKing's dupe packs? He didn't use E2 for anything, just a ton of wire gateways. I posted this so people would make things easier..

Also, thanks to immibis for the instructions, but does the contstant have to be in the 0-1 range. Because I have already tried this and it would sound like it was at full speed of 1 mph. :/

No. The constant value is a number that determines how much to change the pitch. "MPH" is the actual speed on the speedometer.

If you want it to be at 0% pitch when the car is stopped (pitch can go over 100%, btw) then you'd be using my second formula, "Pitch Relative = MPH * constant value"

The constant value is then (pitch you want in %) / (speed you want that pitch at).
So if you want 100% at 50 mph then use 100 / 50, or 2.
If you wanted 5000% pitch (which would sound ridiculous) at 500mph then you'd use 5000/500 = 10 for the constant value.

There is a max pitch of 255 %.
