1) Open a blank project and insert a sound, looped, as child of SpawnLocation object.
2) Playing the project, and as you move away from the object, the sound volume correctly decreases
3) Now create a folder inside SpawnLocation and move the current sound as its child:
4) Now, the sound will not decrease when you move away from the object
Expected Behavior
For organization purposes, I need to put the various types of sound an object can make inside folders.
Actual Behavior
A sound inside a folder that is a child of the object will not be reduced in volume as the player moves away from the object.
I ran into this a week ago via the exact same āfolders are great for organizing everythiā¦ā mindset that Iām accustomed to. Had a facepalm moment when I thought about it for a millisecond, putting 2 and 2 together to conclude that folders donāt have any 3D data.
I have objects that currently have distinct groups of sounds: some sounds for when the object is running, other sounds for when the object is created, others for when it is removed, etc.
It would be very easy to loop GetChildren inside each folder.
But with the current restriction, Iām forced to create additional controls on each sound to tell which group it belongs to.
I know that it is possible to solve this limitation in many ways.
But as you said yourself, folders serve to make things easier, so there shouldnāt be this limitation just for sounds.
