Random Sound looping

[DBThanatos]

If you have a set of sounds like this in SNDINFO:

Code: Select all

$random SuperSound { Sound1 Sound2 Sound3 }

...and you try to loop "SuperSound" in decorate through A_PlaySound, it will pick one of this 3 sounds and loop it. That's how zdoom works now.

The suggestion is to actually have it choosing again between the 3 sounds every time the last selected sound ends.

Perhaps some sort of flag to not break compatibility, or just to have the options? Because I do see that in some cases you might want it to choose one of the sounds and loop only that one.

Nice to have, sure, but not really doable with how the sound system works internally.
