Add ability to play audio on maps using a 3D point

[nootshell]

By allowing us to play audio from a 3D point, we can make significantly more immersive missions. One fairly simple example, and actually my main use case right now, is alarms that are going off at an airbase in case of a QRF launch.

Other uses would be adding custom background chatter in various mission-related locations to improve the quality and level of immersion.

Additionally, being able to attach sound to other units would add in another level of possible immersion as one can add warning/curfew/emergency related sounds to units.

This would be really awesome and useful for also making more realistic missions...like interceptions for example.

Signed. Would be a great tool to have.

Custom sound emitters have been a long standing request...no traction yet unfortunately, though It would be a welcome edition.

+1, However since its 2022 and we still cannot get any type of modern GUI accessibility settings I doubt it.   Still cannot click and drag, Multiselect or countless other less than advanced features.

This would be nice indeed. For me it would be historical airraid sirens when ww2 bomber raids show up

did anyone get this working?

Something like
trigger.action.outSoundAtPoint(string soundfile, vec3 point, int volume )
where the sound is playing at the position of the vec3 point. The volume determinate the radius.

Above files are saved and compressed to .ogg format and are pretty small mostly. Hopefully be of use to people when this finally gets implemented.
