SoundStarted Event

[m8f]

Suggestion: add

Code: Select all

virtual void SoundStarted(SoundEvent event)

to EventHandler.

Where SoundEvent is something like

Code: Select all

struct SoundEvent
{
  Actor source;
  Sound soundId;
}

The position of the sound could be accessed through Actor. The length of the sound could be accessed through S_GetLength(Sound sound_id).

Rationale:
1. Allows creating modifications that display the directional sound, useful for people with hearing issues, and/or playing without speakers/headphones.
2. Allows creating custom behavior, like monster reaction to certain sounds.

Creating this as a feature suggestion because I'm not sure how to implement this.

Ugh...
Let's bury this as quickly as possible. I cannot see any useful way to handle this without exposing implementation details to the script.
