UPDATE TO 1.6

see first post for changes

[Darkreaper]

so for example, what could this tool be used for?
Could it be used to alter sound effects, to change their volume and pitch depending on your position and movement to the source?

[Ryex]

that is exactly what my dynamic sounds script uses it for. it could also be used for a shadow script dynamic weather effects ect. it provides the backbone for the functionality to change anything based on a client's distance from a source

[Darkreaper]

dynamic weather? hows that work?

[Ryex]

as you get closer to a source the weather power gets stronger. and there could be more than one different source on the map and they could all give off a different weather. so you go to one side of the map and it is raining go to the other side and it is snowing

neat
That could actually be very useful. Just wondering if that would work with my weather system
