Rain and Thunder

Post by pango »

Hi all,
I tried to give AmbienEffectsPlayer two (Daggerfall)AudioSources, a separate one for looping effects so it could play rain and thunder simultaneously.
But so far I don't get the expected results, the way to use components still eludes me...
My best shot so far: https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfal ... nd-thunder

I believe we'd need to re-work the AmbientEffectsPlayer itself to support a separate AudioSource (normal Unity one) for looping ambient effects and it can then play intermittent effects the usual way.

When I wrote this, for some reason I never considered rain and thunder playing at the same time. In hindsight it's rather blindingly obvious I should have done this in the first place. :(

That's what I tried to do, but failed...
I split the class in AmbientEffectsPlayer and AmbientLoopEffectsPlayer so I could inject a different AudioSource in each, yet I suspect they're still shared because rain sound changes volume and spatialization after thunder sound has been played...
