Audio groups are used to limit the number of sounds that can be played at once and determine which sounds to play when too many sounds are executed at once.
The Default audio group will be in every new game you create and can play unlimited sounds.
¶ Sound Entries
All sounds added to your game will automatically be placed in the Default group.
The name of each sound is on the left.
The number on the right tells how many instances of this sound are used in your game.
Set the priority of each sound within the group with the button on the right. The priority is a global setting, it ensures that if a higher priority sound is playing, a lower priority sound will never take it's place.
Sounds can be reordered and moved between groups using the handle on the right.
