The game my friend Huntin Hero and i are in the process of making has alot to it, and i would like to know if it's possible for a sound effect that everyone can hear.

EX: Kyle Callaway hits the Transform Button
"You are lifted into the air as you Yell out in Anger, becoming the Legendary Super Saiyan!"

Is it possible to Have a Sound effect play that everyone on the server can hear when i press the transform button?

Android Data	Yes, just send it to <code>world</code> However, players will not hear it if: They have no speakers, turned them off or muted their sounds or put the volume real low (duh). They turned their BYOND sounds off. You're using BYOND 3.5 and playing the new formats like .OGG and the player still uses 341.

Lunaofthemoon	world << sound('filename',loop) There are more arguements for sound() but I'm just giving you the basics. IF you want more, type that into a file on Dream Maker and hit F1 for the DM reference for sound().

Possible, but not smart. This would be very annoying to most players. (Then again, I imagine DBZers can cope with annoying.) Instead you should simply play the sound for anyone in view or nearly in view, maybe using BYOND's 3D sound capabilties to attenuate its distance.
