I was wondering whether the AudioNode is able to use the speed of sound (since sound travels at about 340 [m/s] it takes some time for the sound to reach the listener).
I have implemented sound again in Enemy Ahead (a naval Sim wannabee… ) and when a gun is fired at long distance, I see the nozzle flash but also immediately, I hear the gun sound. What I would like is the sound to reach the listener later.
I could of course create a delay, depending on the distance of the sound source to the listener (distance/soundSpeed) and have the audio wait for that time before playing, but I was wondering if there is already something like that in the source or not.
I don’t think there is such a delay calculation in the engine. That would mean that you’d have to tell the engine if 1 unit means 1 cm or 100 km or whatever. I think it’s best to leave such knowledge outside the engine.
