sprites. They're perfect for setting the mood.
Ambient Sounds
Place an M[HearingDistance,AmbientSound]
in any sector which does not have a Lo-Tag (although there are a few exceptions). For HearingDistance, a value of 1024 is equal to the largest grid square in Build. You can only use ambient-compatible sounds.

Random Ambient Sounds
Random Ambient Sounds are used to randomly play a selected range of sounds. Place an M[SoundRange,BaseSound]
in any sector which does not have a Lo-Tag (although there are a few exceptions). Instead of a hearing distance, the player will be able to hear the sound from anywhere within the sector containing the M
. SoundRange determines how many consecutive sounds (beginning with BaseSound) are to be randomly played. A value of 0 means only the BaseSound will be randomly played. For example, if BaseSound were set to 231, and SoundRange were set to 3, then sound number 231 and the next 3 consecutive sounds would be played randomly.
