@Niceperson: I added code tags around your code snippet for readability.
@Renegade: Line 47 was the red coloured line before I added the code tags.

Thanks for that.


For the code, you have sound now, so that's good. It's just in the wrong spot.

Comment out that line by placing "//" at the front of it. That will disable it.

Next, sift through the various methods and see if you can read enough of the names of variables to find an "alert". When you find that, paste in the sound code that you'd commented out before. (Make sure it's not still commented out.)

Test to see if you've put it in the right place. If not, look around again and repeat.

Make sure to search for "alert" in the code as that should be faster & easier than just reading through. Do make sure to skim it though for words that you recognize as possibly being relevant.

Niceperson:
Hello,

You are right that the code has to be placed in the right spot. I searched through the complete code file, but did not find any "alert" line. I have also attached the complete code file, syntax highlighted.

Please note that the code in Line 31 has been commented out because it gives sound on each tick.  Codes from line 106 are auto generated by Ninja system. I have just added them here for completeness.


Thanks

-but maybe this option is missing if you are running the free version?

If you search their site and keep an eye on new feature development, you may want to look for "enhancement # 1254" (new audio settings).
