Code: [Select]
_object = _this select 0 _duration = _this select 1 _sound = _this select 2 _object say _sound @(_time >= _duration) deleteVehicle _object exit
Now place an object on the map (can be anything, just name it)

And when you want to start your alarm, you use:

[objectname,20,"Alarm"] exec "alarmScript.sqs"

objectname is the name of the object where the alarm will originate, 20 is the time in seconds it will last, and "Alarm" is the sound you want to use, alarm in this case.

Viel glÃƒÂ¼ck :)

EDIT

Changed a bug in the script, now it shoul work.

Code: [Select]
_object = _this select 0 _duration = _this select 1 _sound = _this select 2 #loop _object say _sound // The "Alarm" sound is about 10 secs ~10 ?!(_time >= _duration): goto "loop" deleteVehicle _object exit
