Also having the sounds increase and decrease in volume as they get closer or farther away from the player's position. How would one accomplish this?

I haven't done this, but assuming the volume level is 0-100 you could do this... Player is within set amount (~A~) of pixels of sound emitter: Set sample volume to 100 - ((Abs({X Position of player} - {X position of thing making sounds})) / ~A~)100 Where ~A~ is the farthest you want them to be able to hear the sound from. I'm not sure if that will work, I may have messed something up along the way. If I did Muz will come along and correct it. Also, you may want to use the distance formula instead of only the X distance. The square root of all of this: [(X(player) - X(object))^2] + [Y(Player) - Y(object)^2] Confusing, I know. EDIT: Well poocicles, looks like I was beat to it. Edited by OMC*
