I really wish we could have this, a way of telling the browser to play a
sound regardless of an object or area event. For example when I click on
someone in paintball we both hear gunfire.

That would be cool, you could easily do it with a bot though

if you're talking about laying down an object with create sound on it, the
building of an object is much much too slow, especially for something like a
gunshot.

It would also be useful if you want multiple sounds and only to have to
send sounds to a specific user doing an event, or multiple users but
privately.

I concurr, this is a really important one IMO.

You *might* get away with sending the URL.

Wouldn't it have to download and than open up in one of their music
programs? It would be a pain in the but to have to open up windows media
player, mmjb, or winamp every time someone sent you a sound. It also isn't
good for your computer to keep opening and closing them. I wonder if it's
possible to get winamp so it picks up everyone seperately (live) and sends
out sounds to certain IPs depending on what they're doing. I'm sure it would
be easy to match the IPs.. unless they're using a proxy inside AW. Maybe
someone could try to build a winamp plugin that works with a bot hehe.

What? No way, AW would play the sounds just like it plays all other sounds
like how it uses the "create sound" action.

That might happen. But IE might also play it transparently. (WAV only, not
MP3)

Since such games are bot controlled anyway, all that would be needed is a way for the bot to issue a sound command directly much as it can currently send console messages. If such sounds could be issued either to specific people or to all people within range of a given location, that would give added flexability.
