Switches tips and best practices

When working with Switches, you may want to review the following sections, which provide you with a series of tips and best practices that can help you better manage how you work with Switches throughout the audio development process.

Renaming Switches

Before changing the name of a Switch, verify how the Switches have been integrated into the game. If Switches have been integrated using strings containing the name of the Switch, changing the name will require additional programming to be able to use the Switch.

Assigning objects to more than one Switch Group

Normally an object can only be assigned to one Switch Group. If, however, your game requires that an object be assigned to Switches in different Switch Groups, you can assign a second Switch Group at a higher level in the Master-Mixer, Actor-Mixer, or Interactive Music hierarchies .
