Can I play sounds using the AnimationPlayer?

Question

I'm making a 2D game, and I want to add step sounds to the walking animation. Can I do that with key-frames inside the animation tab, so that the sounds correspond to the animation? I tried to use the AudioStreamPlayer but it doesn't seem to work at all.

As far I know, you can call functions in the animationplayer. Add a call function track and populate it with keys triggering a function that play the sound in certain periods.

I never knew that! Gonna test this right now.

This worked very well! Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

Answer 1

Totally possible. I created an animation with text being typed out accompanied by keyboard sound.

1. Create an AudioStreamPlayer and an AnimationPlayer.
2. Click the AnimationPlayer to open the Animation tab
3. Click + Add Track > Audio Playback Track
4. Right-click on the track > Insert Key
5. Click on the keyframe you've just created
6. Load the sound file into the Stream property (That's it!)
7. You might want to save it as a .tres so you can drag-n-drop it onto the track
8. Or you can just copy it

I don't see "Audio Playback Track" anywhere in the Add Track menu.

It's only available in Godot 3.1, I forgot.

That's OK, I've already found an answer. Thanks, anyway!
