I looked in one of the universal folders the other day and discovered a bunch of sound files. I was wondering if there was any way i could get my planet to use them.
can i make a script something like:
event- newbuilding
.playsound 24
and it would play a the fanfair sound when they made a new building? cause as of right now the only scriptable sound effect i know of is .thunder, which everyone hears.
can i upload a sound effect to play when a person uses a certain weapon?
can i change the menu sound effects?
if i can use sounds, can i make my own custom sounds for use in the game?!

only thing I know is that you can set a building to play a certain sound effect constantly that nearby players can hear...that's about it
Oh yeah, to make a weapon use a particular sound, you have to set up which number sound will be played. Then the correct file must be applied to that sound number using the world server's sound selector tool. The tool relies on the use of sounds in the server's sounds folder.

lol, i hope your still not waiting for an answer.
it only would have taken 5 mins to toss that into a script and see if it worked
there is the .playsound # command. so i don't see why it wouldn't work.
i don't remember if the script can use . yet commands though.

*customsound %player% (num) plays the sound from the custom sounds file to just the player
*soundeffect (num) plays a sound on all clients, however, i do not know how to set up these sounds, it seems to use 1-28 but the numbers dont corrospond tothe custom sounds file in the server window
.playsound and *sound seem to do nothing.
