[SOLVED] How do I play a sound just once based on enemy life

Man of the highest caliber

I want a sound to play just once when my enemies' life falls below 50%.
Also, I want a sound to play just once when my hitcount breaks 15. What I mean is, when my combo ends and it's past 15 hits and I'm not in my attacking movetype anymore.

"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so."

The first one is slightly annoying. You can either use a variable, or use a helper.

For the variable method, in state -2 have a playsnd when p2life <= 500 (just based on 1000 life here, i'm not thinking straight for math) and also have the requirement that var(0) = 0, listed directly after that is a varset, with the same triggers, setting var(0) to 1.

With the helper method, spawn a helper to keep track of p2's life, play the sound and add persistent = 0 to the playsnd, then it'll only trigger once.

Second one, use a helper. Have the helper track the number of hits it's parent does when it's more than 15, set a variable. When p2movetype = I && parent, movetype = I, have the helper change state to the bit where it plays the sound. If the var is less than 15, change back with no sound, if it's 15 or more, play the sound, set the var back to 0 as well.
