al_set_sample...tance_position(3alleg5)

✨ al_set_sample_instance_position ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro 5 API reference manual, section 3alleg5 — this is the page for moving a sample instance's playback position around. it's giving "DJ booth controls" energy. let's go 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>

bool al_set_sample_instance_position(ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE *spl,
   unsigned int val)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does this do? It sets the playback position of a sample instance. that's the whole vibe. you point it at your ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE *spl, you hand it a position val (an unsigned int), and boom — that's where the playback sits. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

And because it's a nice polite function, it tells you how it went:

• returns true when it works out 💖
• returns false when it doesn't 😭

no cap, that's the entire contract. no hidden lore.

fr fr though — check that return value. it's literally the only way this function talks back to you, and she is not subtle about it.

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

• al_get_sample_instance_position(3alleg5) — the other half of the duo, for when you wanna read the position instead of setting it 🎀

and that's a wrap, bestie!! this lil page lives in the Allegro reference manual (3alleg5), under the title al_set_sample...tance_position (yes the header got truncated, she's mysterious like that 💀). go forth and position your samples. slay. 🧚✨🫶
