Ambience Lite API
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
This short guide will show you how to add sound sets into ambience mod for the
|
|
api to use and play sounds accordingly. Please note that the order they are
|
|
added will affect sound checks, so high priority sets first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Function Usage
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adding Sound Set
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
ambience.add_set(set_name, def)
|
|
'set_name' contains the name of the sound set to add
|
|
'def' contains the following:
|
|
'frequency' how often the sound set is played (1 to 1000) higher is more
|
|
'nodes' contains a table of nodes needed for checks
|
|
'sound_check(def)' function to check if sounds can be played, def contains:
|
|
'player' player userdata
|
|
'pos' position of player
|
|
'tod' time of day
|
|
'totals' totals for each node e.g. def.totals["default:sand"]
|
|
'positions' position data for every node found
|
|
'head_node' name of node at player head level
|
|
'feet_node' nameof node at player foot level
|
|
'biome' name of biome at current position
|
|
|
|
This will let you add a set or sounds with the frequency it's used and check
|
|
function for it to play. If ephemeral is true then no handler will be used and sound will be played in background alongside other sounds.
|
|
|
|
e.g.
|
|
|
|
ambience.add_set("windy", {
|
|
frequency = 500,
|
|
nodes = {"default:sand"},
|
|
sounds = {
|
|
{name = "wind", length = 9, gain = 0.3},
|
|
{name = "desertwind", length = 8, gain = 0.3},
|
|
{name = "crow", length = 3, ephemeral = true},
|
|
},
|
|
sound_check = function(def)
|
|
local number = def.totals["default:sand"] or 0 -- yep, can also be nil
|
|
if number > 20 then
|
|
return "windy", 0.2 -- return set to play and optional gain volume
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
|
|
Counting group: nodes
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Instead of counting each node total for things like leaves within the sound_check function, you could use the following helper function to return their total instead e.g.
|
|
|
|
local number = ambience.group_totals(def.totals, "leaves") -- count all group:leaves
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting Sound Set
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
ambience.get_set(set_name)
|
|
|
|
This returns a table containing all of the set information like example above.
|
|
|
|
e.g.
|
|
|
|
local myset = ambience.get_set("windy") -- returns everything inside {} above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Deleting Sound Set
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
ambience.del_set(set_name)
|
|
|
|
This will remove a sound set from the list.
|
|
|
|
e.g.
|
|
|
|
ambience.del_set("windy")
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional Commands
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Two volume commands have been added to set sound and music volume:
|
|
|
|
/svol (0.1 to 1.0)
|
|
/mvol (0.1 to 1.0) -- 0 can be used to stop music curently playing
|
|
|
|
|
|
Music
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
Music can be stored in the sounds folder either on server or locally and so long
|
|
as it is named 'ambience_music.1', 'ambience_music.2' etc. then it will select
|
|
a song randomly to play every 20 minutes.
