Using Singleton Class to mute soundEffects in other scene

Now i've tested and learned to use the Singleton a bit, I've found this topic somewhere in the forum.
Now, the question is, I'm attemping to set the audio to mute in scene 2 and my singleton class is located in scene 1, my soundEffects audioSource are attached to the gameObjects in scene2, is it good idea to use GameObject.Find("soundEffectsInScene2") //audio source to mute in my singleton class? or do u have better suggestion?... thank u

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class MyUnitySingleton : MonoBehaviour {
5.    
6. private static MyUnitySingleton instance = null;
7. public static MyUnitySingleton Instance {
8.     get {
9.             return instance;
10.         }
11. }
12.  
13. void Awake() {
14.  
15.     if (instance != null && instance != this) {
16.         Destroy(this.gameObject);
17.         return;
18.     } else {
19.         instance = this;
20.     }
21.     DontDestroyOnLoad(this.gameObject);
22.     }
23. //---------------------------------
24.  
25.     void Start(){
26.  
27.     }
28.  
29.     void Update(){
30.  
31.  
32.         if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
33.         {
34.  
35.             AudioListener.volume = 0;
36.    
37.             Debug.Log("stop sound");
38.  
39.             }
40.  
41.         if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
42.         {
43.    
44.             Debug.Log("play sound");
45.             AudioListener.volume = 1f;
46.  
47.         }
48.  
49.         if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.DownArrow))
50.         {
51.             Application.LoadLevel(1);
52.            
53.         }
54.     }
55.  
56. }

 

An object only lives inside it's scene, unless you use DontDestroyOnLoad. So your scene2's audiolistener is created when the scene is loaded.

You could do this with OnLevelWasLoaded
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/MonoBehaviour.OnLevelWasLoaded.html

Code (csharp):

1. void OnLevelWasLoaded(int level) {
2.   if (level==1) {
3.     //code to disable sound
4.   }

 

wow, ill try sir TY

 

I'll attach this code in my soundEffectObj with audioSource in scene2? Is that correct?

 

You could, you could also do this in you singleton class, that is the class that knows wether the sound should be turned off..

if you do it in your soundEffectObj in scene2 then you could also just do it in Start

Code (csharp):

1. void Start() {
2.   if (MyUnitySingleton.Instance.ShouldAudioBeTurnedOff) {
3.     audioListener.volume = 0;
4. }

then the code in your singleton would change to

Code (csharp):

1. if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow)) {
2.   ShouldAudioBeTurnedOff = true;
3. }

 

Thanks but i got this error in scene2:
'SoundController.ShouldAudioBeTurnedOff'' is inaccessible due to its protection level
