How do I synchronize the typewriter with the sound?

Hi there. So since the last time we met I bought an annual subscription of Construct 3, so I guess you're going to support me (and bear with me) along the way, haha.

So I'm making a short dialogue function, and I got how activate the typewrite effect. However I wonder if it's possible to synchronize the each letter appearing with a sound effect. I know I can use the "wait for X seconds" in the System, but if the text may not be synchronized if it's too long or too short.

Thank you so much for reading.

Im currently using one method in a project right now, i dont know if is the correct method to do that but here it is.

SpriteFont is running typewritter text

Every "duration / 1.6" / character ammount -> play sound

Seems to be the answer, but... how di dyou get the character ammount?

If you have store in a variable the text you want to typewrite you can use len(variable).

Oh my judge you're a genius. I don't even know what I did, but I did it and it's working great!

My only two concerns is that it works only if the variables duration and character amount are global. Other that that, it's great.

Now I have to find out how to make multiple scripts without using only the events. What did you use for your project?

Hello , sorry for the late answer.

What do you mean by multiple scripts with out using only the events?

What are you trying to do and you can not with out the events?

Sorry I didn't say it correctly.

I'm trying to figure out how to do the rest of the dialogue system - JSON (if necessary) and all, so I'm not sure if there is a "best way" or a "simple way" to do this on Construct.

Well, everytime I make a game I add a string variable and I add all the words I need there and I retrieve it using tokenat.
