also make sure the song is in that folder

where do i put the coding?

[JoeBlo]

It's easy.

Code: [Select]

self.custom_sound = plus.CreateSound("blabla.mp3", False, (0, 0, 0))This goes when other stuff for the arena is loading,

Then, when you want the music to play, just run

Code: [Select]

plus.loopSound(self.custom_sound)

so the initial load up stuff for the arena and then when you want it to play

Easy alternative without coding:
Obviously not for everyone...

Replace a sound effect for a component you dislike with the music you want, then place the component in your bot and wire it. Use component in battle to initiate playback. If you have extra weight/space/wiring in said bot you can do this with multiple components to create a jukebox function. You could also create new components without weight/space requirements if so inclined I suppose, but I've never tried.

Yeah, you could edit a .txt so the motor or whatever has no collision and weighs like 0.1kg. But you'd have to trust yourself not to abuse the component's new assets XD

[JoeBlo]

or a sharktooth size plain box with no collision that weighs 0kg ?

in any case nice 'bumpage'

It's easy.

Code: [Select]

self.custom_sound = plus.CreateSound("blabla.mp3", False, (0, 0, 0))This goes when other stuff for the arena is loading, since it takes some time to precache the sound. self.custom_sound now holds a "handle" to the sound you want to play later.

Then, when you want the music to play, just run

Code: [Select]

plus.loopSound(self.custom_sound)

I'm pretty sure you can't play mp3's with Python code.  You need to convert them to wav's, which are huge, which is why you don't see very much in-battle music.
