ya ive plugged in different sound and they all do the same thing.

sorry, i can't see anything wrong with the script, maybe somebody else can.
and you're sure you picked a _non_looping_ sound...? QSTKlaxonA DEFINITELY is a looper, so make a non-looping copy of it and try again.
and make sure the switch doesn't have any activation parents or anything.
else, i'd have no idea why this shouldn't work

well that's exactly what you wanted i thought, the sound to stop...!?

[Officer360]

im trying to get it to keep looping until i press the switch again for it to stop. sorry for not being clear on that. i want it to work like a fire alarm where you pull the switch and the alarm goes off but when you flip the switch again the sound stops.

Place the sound into the cell, and edit the reference so that it is 'initially disabled', 'persistent', and give it a name like 'KlaxonSndREF'.

(I think) you should then be able to use the KlaxonSndREF.enable and KlaxonSndREF.disable commands to turn it on/off in your switch script.

that did it! Kudos to both of you for you help!
