SFX Manager

NOTE You will want to create a prefab variant of the Audio Controllers prefab, to ensure that your changes are maintained!

The AudioControllers prefab manages both Music & SFX, and should be in the scene if you intend to call it!

The intention of the SFX Manager is to allow you to easily play SFX, that can then be easily called anywhere within your code, without needing to worry about managing the lifespan SFX, automatically setting sound varieties, channel limits, as well as volume limits

• You can use Max Playing to help prevent spam. When the value is 0 it will play unlimited.
• AudioClips list will choose a random sound from the list when called, you can use just a single sound if you like.

You can add new enum values into SFX.cs, as this will operate in two locations:

1. The Audio Controllers prefab, can then add a new entry

   • public enum SFX
     {
        NONE = 0,
        MY_SOUND = 1
     }

2. You can then use that enum value in code to play the sound, optionally at a world location

   • SFX.MY_SOUND.PlaySound(volume: 1f);

   • SFX.MY_SOUND.PlaySoundAtLocation(transform.position);

3. You can also optionally include a pitch value!

   WARNING

   It should be noted that to have pitch functional for 2D sounds, a new AudioSource is instantiated, and the pitch value is applied there. Be cautious for sounds used multiple times in a single frame.

   • SFX.MY_SOUND.PlaySound(volume: 1f, pitch 1f);

   • SFX.MY_SOUND.PlaySoundAtLocation(transform.position, pitch: 1f);
