I would like to make a trigger that plays an ambient sound, but just once.
I set it to to TriggerOnceOnly but the sound keep looping.

For that, you need a SpecialEvent which can be found in the Triggers section of the actor class tree.
To set it up to play a sound, go into the properties -> object then in the initialstate box, select PlaySoundEffect, PlayAmbientSoundEffect or PlayersPlaySoundEffect- it depends how you want it to work
Then in the SpecialEvent part of the SpecialEvent properties, put the sound you want played into the Sound box. Then, set up a trigger, attach the events/tags, and you're all set
Hope this helps!

It keeps repeating the ambient sound, but okay at all.

Best bet is to reimport the sound as a nonlooping one.

Boy do I feel stupid... I'm working on a map that am mixed about releasing and wanted to know how to do this. W00t!SteadZ wrote:For that, you need a SpecialEvent which can be found in the Triggers section of the actor class tree.

Do NOT play sounds that have a sampler loop in them or they will continue playing endlessly until that sound slot is overwritten or you go out of range of the sound to cause the engine to unload it.
Of course this only applies to Galaxy I would hope. Smiftsch's newer OpenAL and FMOD will only make use of sampler loops if they are played on the ambient sound slot so you can use sounds with the loop chunk as one shot sounds but even still... do NOT play looping sounds as one shot as this will NOT work under Galaxy.

I think Bleeder is also making some super master trigger thing for Unreal.
