I'm currently working on a plugin using the LSPDFR API but am having trouble with the scanner audio.

Functions.PlayScannerAudio("NEED_BACKUP_NOW")
GameFiber.Sleep(3000)
Functions.PlayScannerAudioUsingPosition("ATTENTION_ALL_UNITS ASSISTANCE_REQUIRED IN_OR_ON_POSITION CODE_3", Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Position);

The problem is, the first audio: "NEED_BACKUP_NOW", plays perfectly, but the second piece of audio doesn't play. The rest of the script executes perfectly, and it appears that the second audio statement is skipped.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Probably the problem is that LSPDFR can only play one audio at once. When the second audio should start, the first audio might still playing. You can either make the sleep time bigger or simulate the sounds between one audio and other in only one PlayScannerAudio() like I did:

Functions.PlayScannerAudioUsingPosition(
"CRIME_OFFICER_REQUESTS_AIR_SUPPORT IN_OR_ON_POSITION OUTRO/*Here you play the outro audio and then the intro audio*/ OFFICER_INTRO HELI_APPROACHING_DISPATCH", Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Position);

Hmmmm... That's a surprise because the first audio is less than 3 seconds long, but I'll give it a try and get back to you.

Thanks for your help.

Remember that LSPDFR adds more audios, like the INTRO, the OUTRO or the NOISE_LOOP, so it makes it longer.

That's probably what it was. Increasing the sleep time solved the problem.

Another quick question, do you know how to add the Key icons to the dialogues? Such as:

Game.DisplayHelp("Press F10 to continue.", true);

But instead of displaying just the text F10, it instead displays the actual graphic for that button?

As you can see it uses the game controls and the problem with that is that if the user changes the game keys, the key icon also will change. And I don't know if there is any control that uses  the F10 key by default. That's the only method I know of.

Ah damn. That's a shame. Thanks anyway.
