Time rewind like in "Braid". Choose objects that will be affected by time rewind

Hello,

I want to prevent the games audio volume to exceed a certain value. Im familiar with audio and I know how to use a compressor, but I want to apply the compressor to the master volume, or even better, to some groups of sound in particular.

I already use tags for my sounds, for different reasons (effects, postionning, etc.), but it seems that a sound cannot have more than one tag, which means that I cannot create "tracks" which contains sounds that already have different tags.

You could make an array, and group audio in there, loop through it, and do what you need with it.

0,0 -> group, tag

i.e.

menu, hover

menu, click

menu, songintro

game, click

game, walk

game, music

To loop through game tags

for 0 to array.width

compare 2 values: array.at(loopindex,0) = "game"

action: set volume for tag array.at(loopindex,1)

Something along those lines

Thanks, this could be a good way to create some kind of audio groups and subgroups ! I will try to adapt it to my needs and see what I can get.
